You wanna risk it with your dog, that's on you… Also, "Dogs can eat garlic." and then ridiculing the person who actually did research about what's safe for their dog, when this person couldn't be bothered to even do a ten second web search to determine if their harshness was even justifiable? And it's worth taking into account that dogs come in a pretty wide variety of sizes and body mass. Larger or more massive dog can obviously tolerate more of a toxic substance before it's a serious issue. Still shouldn't just take this person at their word and start feeding your dog garlic just because some Internet rando says "dogs can eat garlic".
- hnfong 4y ago> this person couldn't be bothered to even do a ten second web search Do you know that it is true? Pretty sure they read the same/similar info from a web search and determined that foods that contain a bit of garlic aren't a big danger to dogs. The context is important (although it's fair to point out that the quote can be taken out of context) -- the discussion was about food that incidentally contained garlic as ingredient (which realistically wouldn't contain a whole lot of it), not feeding whole cloves of garlic to dogs.
