Ive given them my lot for years and had no side effects and no fleas!!they queue up for them when i shout "tablets," it's soo cute!! If there are any serious side effects known please let me know as its prob too late for my lot now:(

not sure about the tablets but my pup sure loves garlic bread :-P

hiya candie, how often do you give them a tablet?

I've come across in my reading somewhere that some garlic is OK, but not a lot. (whatever that means)Same with spinich. I do suppliment my dogs' food and have wanted to make sure the things I gave were ok. I have no idea where that was that I read that, as it's been a while. So...sorry...not much help. And not very specific.

hiya mark, i give them 1 garlic capsule each each a day!

Shes now been on them a week in capsule form & though I frontline  her I do believe she isnt scratching as much, Ill keep using them there is an offer in Holland & barretts at 99p instead of 3.99. Bargain :)

Snap!  I've been to Holland & Barretts too, got my supplies in!  My dogs have been having them for just over 2 years now and never had a flea, one advantage of the capsules is their breath doesn't smell as bad as it would if they ate a clove of Garlic :-)

I have never found that dogs fed fresh garlic have garlic breath :D

Garlic is absolutely fine to give dogs on a daily basis. I give mine a crushed garlic clove every day.  Obviously feeding a bulb would not be a good idea as anything, including carrots, water etc is toxic in large enough amounts.

I think that there are more benefits by using fresh than capsules though and it is certainly a lot cheaper!

Those of you who are using garlic are you using a flea treatment aswell. If not & it works it wll save me abit of ££.

I very rarely spray my dogs if ever, I do spray my house once/twice a year though.
