My dog possibly ate onion or garlic. Is it toxic for a 46lb dog?

Question

Hello, I just chopped onion and fresh garlic and saw my dog take something off the floor although I don’t recall any falling. So, I’m not certain but afraid there is a potential he ate a piece of chopped onion or a piece of chopped fresh garlic. Is this cause for concern?? He is 46 pounds. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Male | neutered | 46 lbs

Hello. It takes a fair amount on onion ( like several tablespoons ), or several cloves of garlic to cause any problems in dogs, especially one Moon's size. I would not be concerned at all about this very small piece. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
