(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
June 8, 2007Caller reports that he diluted product according to label directions for ready-to-use application and applied product on his farm on 6/5/2007. On 6/6/2007 his dog fell ill with general lethargy and loss of appetite which continues to today. The caller is wondering if the herbicide may be responsible. There was no know exposure to the herbicide, but he speculates that the dog may have possible licked some diluted herbicide that had puddled on the ground.The caller was informed that the primary clinical effects expected if significant amounts of the diluted herbicide are ingested are vomiting and diarrhea. Given the absence of these symptoms, and the absence of defined point of known exposure, suggested that he investigate other causes. Also recommended that given the dog's age and the lingering illness, the dog should be seen by a DVM right away. Border Collies rarely do not live past 14 to 15 years of age.Follow-up completed on July 10, 2007Spoke with dog owner. She reports that the dog died on 6/10/2007. The dog was never taken in for an evaluation by a veterinarian.
