Thank you for submitting your question regarding Harvey. Garlic is toxic to dogs as it damages red blood cells. However, there was not a likely a lot on the pizza he ate if it was just flavoring on the crust. If there were whole cloves though, this would be more worrisome. Either way, it is safest for him to see his veterinarian. I hope this information helps!
