Question Eggs & Garlic Pills

I have been told from Daisy's vet that it's safe & really good to give Daisy an egg once week. Is that true? A raw egg? Wow that seems weird. But hey I don't know. This is my first Doberman Pinscher. My second question is I have been told from one of my friends (Tina) that it is good to give Daisy a garlic pill once a week. This will keep the misqutios & fleas away. Tina also says that the garlic is good for Daisy's coat. Is any of this true. I mean it has to be cheaper then the frotline that the vet wants me to buy. (should I still buy the frontline) Someone please help me. Thanks... Later Days.

Garlic Contains sulfoxides and disulfides, which can damage red blood cells and cause anemia. Cats are more susceptible than dogs. Garlic is less toxic than onions.


Eggs Contain an enzyme called avidin, which decreases the absorption of biotin (a B vitamin). This can lead to skin and hair coat problems. Raw eggs may also contain Salmonella.
