Does garlic help against infections and fleas in dogs?

All I know is that it comes with a money back guarantee as best protection against the latest vampires ;)

It's a well known fact that it's a well known fact. Does it work? Don't know. Tastes good. JH

I was recently told by the breeder of my new puppy that she gives 1 garlic tablet per day to her (show) dogs and assures me that its the best method of keeping fleas away. She has 7 dogs, so I think she has enough knowledge on the subject, and when my puppy is old enough (about 3 months) I will certainly be giving it a try.

Good luck.

Well Debbie you are certainly right to try out things you are told by the breeder but my posted reply said in my opinion :)
Garlic is very good for dogs and humans , I just dont find it keeps fleas away by itself, . I have used a flea treatment on my [show] dogs after washing them or dry shampooing them whatever for the past 30 years , It is sharing your knowledge this board is about .And then letting the person decide for themselves.

it wont stop them catching fleas!!!i know this for a fact, as i know someone who was sold the same story and gave her dogs garlic religously, they did catch fleas, perhaps they had no sense of smell :D
