Hi, i know dogs aren’t supposed to eat garlic. But i have some beef sautéed with garlic and ginger. Is it safe for my pup to eat it if i rinsed or boiled it with water?

Even though the possibility of toxicity is minimal if you rinse/or bolied it, I would avoid to give it to your puppy. This would be quite hard to digest as well and could potentially cause gastrointestinal upset as well.
