    The large amount of garlic that can affect the blood cells are 175lbs. A meal. Garlic is excellent for dogs. Do your research !

      I agree, there are other reputable Vets that say the exact opposite and said they have prescribed dogs garlic many times

      I don't trust anything a vet says unless it involves surgery. I had a cat about 3 years ago. Her name was O or Oreo (we called her O). We took her to the vet. About a week before this I'd seen an article about a drug from China that could save a cat with a specific illness but I thought it didn't apply to me and I forgot about it.
      Vet diagnoses our cat with FIP. Says there's no cure. We went to this vet about 3 times in 2 days to try and figure out options and I remembered the article. I asked about it and said ther was also a Facebook group. She convinced my roommate that it was bogus and my roommate had us waste a bunch of time on shit that didn't work. I finally pulled the trigger. I should have got her the transfusion of blood but I waited. I gave her the dose of GS. but it was too late. She died about 8 hours later. My roommate blamed the drug.
      Last year we had another cat with the same problem. I immediately bought the drug from a Chinese man. 82 days (I did 84) and he was better.
      Had I not wasted time with that vet, my cat would have lived. And what's worse? There are literal studies from UC Davis veterinary hospital that show she was full of shit. And there's no way she didn't know about it. So she just straight up lied to us. Killed my cat.

    I have been feeding fresh raw garlic to my dog for years. During that time I saw 1 flea on his paw which looked like it couldn’t wait to get off of him. When I stopped for a few months my dog had lots of fleas and was developing bloody sores form scratching. I started feeding it to him again. The fleas were gone within a week and the sores are healing beautifully. He’s a 60lb pitbull and never had any issues from eating 1 clove twice a day.
    Garlic is an incredible vegetable that I’ve used it to treat every bacterial, fungal, viral issue in my kids. As soon as anyone is having immune issues we eat raw garlic. I am in awe of what it has done for our family. Oh and it treats vaginal yeast infections. Fun fact you insert a clove down there and within 30 mins you begin to taste garlic in your mouth so please don’t tell me it doesn’t emanate from the body and repel fleas. Do your research because this video is pure misinformation. We know big pharma makes the world go round 😂

      Vets constantly lie. That's about all they do, just like doctors and lawyers. Paid to lie. Paid for poison.
      Vet told my roommate and me a specific drug didn't exist and that it's all bogus. Well, vet was wrong. Unfortunately that cat didn't make it because we wasted so much time with that vet.
      Another cat got the same illness, FIP, and I immediately bought the drugs from China. I did the rounds and he is alive today because of it. Had I listened to that vet again he'd be dead. I'm still upset about the one that died. It was the most painful death. I still have the video but I can't watch it other than to punish myself for failing her.
      Screw vets. Most of them are liars.

    It works for us humans at least. Recently had a flea infestation and no flea products really worked. It turns out that I have a charm for fleas and all fleas in the house were targeting only me. I was so itchy it was driving me crazy. I had to try anything that might work so I started eating two cloves of raw garlic a day, and I no longer need to keep my trousers tucked into the socks 24/7! Not a single bite since I started eating raw garlic.

      ​@@AllStarVeterinaryClinicvets told me GS wouldn't work. They lied. Had one cat die unnecessarily because the vet told my roommate that it wouldn't work. We weren't in agreement and wasted precious time. That cat died from FIP when she could have been saved. We were too late to give her the first dose.
      The second cat I bought the GS immediately despite jy roommates protests. That cat is alive and well.

      ​@@solestepper1801they all are. They killed my cat by telling my roommate GS for FIP doesn't work. Roommate hassled me on it for like 2 days. Instead of just listening to me. He listened to the vet and even then he didn't listen when she said there was nothing he could do he wanted time trying B vitamins. I finally got the drugs from China, gave her her first dose but all that time wasted she died in 8 hours. I took her to the ER for a blood transfusion but it was too late. Paid $300 just for them to tell me she died when we got there. Should've just got the drugs sooner or the vet should've said something better because I know she knew about the UC Davis studies!
      2nd cat it happened to recently I immediately got the GS from China. Roommate kept giving me pushback saying it killed the first cat. I simply ignored him. He was clearly better within 5 days. The whole thing is 82 days minimum though so we did that. I actually did 84 because I wasn't sure if I missed a day. He's alive now. He would've died had we listened to the vet again.

Although cats are more susceptible, dogs are also at risk if a large enough amount is consumed." - ok so this where you are basing this information? If you are basing this info in the study that gave 1.25 ml of garlic extract/kg of body weight (5 g of whole garlic/kg) intragastrically once a day for 7 days that is for sure excessive - that sort of study bears no relevance to the medicinal use of garlic in small doses.
