"METHOD FOR INTENSIFYING IMMUNOLOGICAL RESPONSE IN A DOG; METHOD FOR INCREASING LYMPHOCYTE BLASTOGENESIS IN A DOG; AND GARLIC USE". A composition and method for enhancing the immune response and improving the overall health of canines is provided, including feeding the canines with a dietary composition containing an effective amount of garlic in an amount of about 1 to 10 g / kg diet. Dietary composition, when fed on canines, provides antioxidant, anticancer and immunomodulatory benefits. Canines are fed the composition containing an effective amount of garlic in an amount and frequency appropriate to their nutritional needs, resulting in an enhanced immune response through increased lymphocyte blastogenesis and improved overall animal health.
