Hi Jane
Onions cause hemolytic anemia in dogs and they are not of any benefit in any way to dogs as a food. So no onions - they're toxic, though a few bits of onion mixed with other food won't do your Corgi much harm.

Garlic can also be toxic to dogs but the differences between garlic and onions are that in small amounts, garlic is safe and it is beneficial with a myriad of things such as gas, flea prevention and as a natural antibiotic.

My Taylor gets a small amount of garlic daily through the chicken roll part of his dinner. This dog roll contains garlic.
