When you feed raw garlic you’re getting highly effective whole plant medicine and nutrition. A plant’s effectiveness doesn’t come from the action of any single chemical.Garlic extracts don’t provide the hundreds of chemical constituents working together as they do in a plant.

This is the same family as onions, which can indeed be fatal for dogs.
