trancerxn112 Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 in the dark ages when a person was bit by a rabid dog they usually died shortly afterwards so it was thought that if you mixed aloe, garlic and alcohol with some "hair of the dog that bit you" you would be cured... of course little did they know that aloe and garlic are both natural antibiotics so those that did survive didnt survive because of the hair... but that pretty much it the etymology of the term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
