there was a discussion on another horse list about feeding garlic and a
study on anemia. One lister was adamant about garlic being bad. She
posted a site about garlic...and horses and problems. The study didnt
even had 20 horses in it.. and those in that study were given a
gawdawful amount of garlic. Garlic has been known to have healing
properties.. I would think that whatever anyone comes up with for
anything.. there will be pros and cons.
For example.. I have said for years that no one should eat grean
beans... they can kill you.. my study and proof is this:
everyone who ate green beans in the year 1820 is dead.
The sheltie is one of those breeds that can suffer from a skin disease
called dermatomyositis. The medication that texas a&m uses for
treatement has properties to thin the blood. I know of three shelties
who suffered from DM and are now in remisiion (?) with hari regrowth
after being on fresh garlic daily and apple cider vinegar.
One of the sheltie owners told me that her parents fed chopped fresh
garlic to their mixed breed dogs for about 12 to 14 years daily. those
dogs appeared to healthy... and never saw the vet except for regular
routine check ups and rabies vaccinations.
