Does it matter if the garlic is 'odorless' ...?

Since Jin has gone off fresh garlic, I am looking at tabs/capsules. Some are 'odorless' - does that have any influence on its performance??

Thanks!!

I don't give my lot odourless ones, as I'd always assumed it was the odour which repells fleas.

Jimmi has Denes garlic tablets, which are most definitely not odourless!!! Although strangely enough once inside him his breath is not too badly affected..........probably can't compete with all that salmon

Jimmi is not very keen on the tablets, but they go in fine when smothered in salmon mousse, so perhaps Jinty would appreciate hers more if encased in a bit of sausage or something?!

See, I have always used fresh garlic, but she wont touch her food now if it has any fresh garlic in it..... I even tried hiding it in smelly tuna.

I don't know whether its the odor or not....?

Hmmm... I will look into tabs.

Bitkin, I don't feed sausage, only RAW. I avoid things like sausages as they could have onion in.....Jinty eats her 'yumove' tab out of my hand, as well as the pro/pre biotics.

Ooops, yes I forgot about the raw diet. Sorry

The tablets are just 100% garlic, but to be honest they smell as strongly as a clove does so they might not be much help to you. I think that you have to be a little careful about feeding human garlic tablets - someone else may be able to advise you on this.

Hope you and the gorgeous Jinty are okay

Hmm.... I might try blending it in with some veg and freezing it. It wont eliminate the smell, but it will be 'hidden' in the veg if you know what I mean.......
