Hello, given that it has garlic in there, it would not be safe to give to your dog. Garlic in certain amounts can cause GI upset in small amounts, but in severe amounts it can also cause anemia. Additionally, your dog's food should be well balanced if it is certified to meet the AAFCO standards. This should be indicated in the label of the bag of dog food. Hope this helps and best of luck.
