Always thought it odd that people give supplements to "supposedly"gain some slight improvement whilst one of the commonest it giving garlic which destroys a percentage of the dogs red blood cells...... even a small drop in number will reduce all aspects of performance. They wil insist it does good when plainly it does harm.

Ps This particular toxicity is one of the few areas where we differ from dogs.

Hence the reason giving dogs to much onion and garlic can cause Heinz anemia .....

A little garlic is beneficial for a dog, especially if a dog is fed a standard dog food(dry food). 

A dog fed raw diet or a very healthy animal will require less.

It does thin the blood slightly as does tumeric, but thins it in a beneficial way which increases the flow of fluids in the blood stream and in the organs of the animal. This helps clear toxins, prevents mass cell tumours and discourages worms too. 

As a supplement it is best fed in small amounts. For example i give my dog a clove or two once a month. Works just as good for humans

Supplements will have little or no benefit if your diet isn't at its best, that's for dogs and humans. 

Supplements can be extremely beneficial to gain extra improvement when your diet is good, be it extra stamina, muscle mass etc. I'll insist that it does lol because it does.

All the sugar they put in them might not be a good thing though.
