and White Oaks West Animal Hospital "Garlic & Garlic powder Red blood cell damage can occur due to garlic and onion ingestion. The use of garlic and other members of the Lily family such as onions, shallots, and chives is not advised. Ingestion of these plants in a raw, cooked, or dried form can lead to damage of the red blood cells, which are rejected by the body from the bloodstream, and a continued use of garlic or onions can eventually result in hemolytic anemia. "An alkaloid, N-propyl disulphide, present in both cultivated and wild onions, chives, and garlic, affects the enzyme, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, in red blood cells that interferes with the hexose monophosphate pathway. Oxidation of hemoglobin results because there is either insufficient phosphate dehydrogenase or glutathione to protect the red blood cells from oxidative injury. The resulting formation of Heinz bodies within erythrocytes is characteristic of onion poisoning. (...)" Marielle Gomez-Kaifer, PhD, Department of Chemistry, University of Miami" given choices, i'd rather trust the vets and veterinary universities. =)

Re: dangerous to dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay what about a vet that says it's okay to give dogs garlic?
"Ingesting excessive quantities of garlic (or onion), raw or cooked, can cause Heinz-body anemia in pets and, therefore, the amount dispensed on the pet food must be appropriate for the body weight of the pet. Although it is not known that any veterinary colleges have conducted studies on the effects of garlic on pets, the suggested dosage of raw garlic that is generally considered to have therapeutic value for certain problems and also to be safe is approximately 1/2 clove of raw garlic per 10 lbs. of body weight. Mary L. Brennan, D.V.M." This person is a vet, Dr. Mary Brennan has a holistic veterinary practice in Atlanta, Georgia. |
