i'm confused, is there garlic in this? isn't garlic supposed to be toxic for dogs?

Yes, garlic is listed among the ingredients (don't know what other folks were looking at, but I double-checked and it's there). My wife the dog whisperer (who also checked the package) says she has never heard of garlic being toxic for dogs (but onions, maybe so).

No garlic on the label or that I smelled. This works well for my two chihuahuas. One of them scratches excessively, when I don't use it.

I read the ingredients and didn't see garlic listed. I emailed Missing Link Company and asked.

No garlic. This is a great product. It does include the following: olive leaf, mustard seed, black seed, Paul D'arco, grapefruit seed extract, ethyl alcohol and distilled water. My rescued Husky had a skin disorder and I didn't want to spend megbucks on vet n meds. This product is really good and I gave the dose of 4 times a day for the first 4 days. As I noticed an improvement, I split it into 2 times a day for 2 weeks. Then brought it down to only once in the evening. Because of her anxiety, I also included a gelcap of 25mg Diphenhydramine HCI, aka Benadryl. I use the generic Walmart Equate brand. This helps calm her. The recommended dose is 2 caps for a dog of her weight, 56lbs. Because of the skin problem, I included Puritians Pride pets Coat & Skin vitamins and unsaturated oils. I gave 13 drops of Vibactra, 1 25mg capsule ( cut end off and poor powder into spoon )' with the skin oil added. I have another dog that had a temporary intestinal issue. I gave him some for a few days at twice each morning and evening. What ever was bothering him went away in short. This is a great natural product. I hope you find the same success I have. Thanks for asking and please let me know the results.

I don't know which ones don't have garlic but none of them are very good. My dogs would not eat them.

I am a vet student and I actually learned in conical pathology that garlic can be toxic to dogs. It can cause changes in their red blood cells along with other side effects

No, you don't, but it is advisable that you have your dog checked by your vet, or you at least check with your vet, prior to administering it. Some dogs (very few) may have an adverse reaction to it depending on whether or not they're on other medication.

The label doesn't mention pets - however - there is a poison statement & cautions about swallowing it, spraying it in your face, putting it on the hands of small children, etc. Since your dog could lick it, I would say "no".

I got three things for you: 1) From me, Dogs are carnivorous animals. They want and need meat. The more meat and less grains the better in my book. 2) I looked it up and a vet is recommending brewers yeast to increase b vitamin intake. She recommends it with a good meaty diet. 3) The container makes no mention of it being suitable for any animal. It is made of beets and no hops or barley.

It contains Tylosin. I checked with my vet who is very reputable and he said that it is safe.

This is what I found on the Petsmart website, but there are some differences (hopefully not meaningful) from what is listed on the package. Please forgive me for not wanting to type out the label - I did take a picture of it and was ready to send it, but I don't see a way to attach it here. "Ingredients: Flax seed, blackstrap molasses, rice bran, primary dried yeast, freeze dried beef liver, sunflower seed, dehydrated alfalfa, dried carrot, freeze dried beef bone meal, freeze dried cod fish protein concentrate, freeze dried oyster, sprouted green barley, dried kelp, lecithin, garlic, and yucca schidigera extract."

There is onion powder in the product, so if onion powder is not good for dogs....I wouldn't give it to my dog.

I dont have this food now, but it does have Barley in it. No corn, wheat or soy. Honestly, the best food for dogs is a raw diet. I've switched my dogs to the diet and they are all doing so well. No itching at all and their poos are tiny. I used Big Dog Natural. Its available online. Its dehydrated, no grains of any kind. You mix it with hot water.

I agree with Book fan, it is not on the ingredients list. I know that when I started feeding my dogs this particular mix, their coats became shinier, they "smiled" more, they love to play more . . . . even my dog (now at The Bridge) who was 11 when I started feeding her this lasted another six years, and I believe it is due to her diet. At 11, she began playing more (and she was blind!). Argh I answered more than your question, but this is truly a great dog food and highly recommended by someone who is very picky about what goes into her dogs (who are family, after all!)

The ingredients say "non-toxic", but I would be sure to ask a veterinarian first just to make sure it was ok.

no this is all natural and SAFE, white willow bark and other natural ingredients for pain and inflamation. it works well for our 13yr old yorkie that had 3 leg surgies on both his rear legs. I will never give another of my pets carprofen again, it killed our beloved dalmation in 6weeks from kidney and liver shutdown and autoimmune reaction. I wish I'd have found this sooner to help her instead of killing her in a futile attempt to help her pain with a dangerous drug carprofen. Please try this medicine first, and research and know what you are possibly getting into with carprofen.
