"Onion poisoning is consistently noted in pets who consume more than 0.5% of their body weight in onions."

"Consuming as little as 2 grams per pound of your dog’s weight can cause observable changes in a pet's stomach, and larger amounts can damage the blood. For reference, each garlic clove weighs an average of 5 grams. For a medium-sized dog weighing around 25 pounds, treatment will be needed if they ingest 50 grams of garlic—approximately 10 cloves, or half of a garlic bulb."

Unless you're literally feeding your dog a dish with onions and garlic, it isn't an issue.
