No, I didn't know that. Luckily my dogs turn up their noses at all vegetables (except those cooked in bacon!)

Did You Know… Onions, garlic, chives and other species of the plant genus Allium can be potentially toxic to pets?
Allium species contain sulfur compounds known as disulfildes, which if ingested in large quantities can cause gastrointestinal irritation and could even result in damage to red blood cells. While cats are more sensitive to disulfides, dogs and other species of animals are also susceptible to Allium poisoning if enough plant material is consumed. Therefore, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center advises companion animal owners to avoid feeding pets onions, garlic and other Allium plants. posted by

It seems to be true. I asked a cousin who is a veterinarian and she confirmed they can be toxic to dogs, like chocolate can be also.
