I only give it to mine if they are a bit loose , but don't see that it would do any harm on a daily basis.

Garlic is a good flea control and I must say I haven't had to give Ollie any flea treatment this summer.Infact I have never deflead him in 15 months of him living with us his breeder feeds hers dogs this way also.
Honey is a good all rounder for the body same for dogs as for humans I suppose.I have a cat also he doesn't get garlic so I frontlined him.Ollie plays with lots of other dogs and is field walked all summer unless very wet.

My dogs have always had live yoghurt, it's brilliant for settling aching tums as well as for replacing the good bacteria lost with ab's. I've never given honey, but I will do now, and of course, the best honey to give them would be the Manuka honey from New Zealand which is a natural antibiotic in itself!

As to the amount, I usually give a whole pot, a small one? I use the Activia Cereal variety not a fruit one, and in the summer when it's really hot not often I know I freeze the pots, so they get a sort of ice lolly of yoghurts which they adore!! I might just put a couple in the freezer now for Georgie, coz he does love them and he takes ages to eat a frozen potful.

My gang get live yogurt 2-4 times a week, I think it would be fine to feed some everyday.
