(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-15971963: The reporter called on 4/3/08 to report one of two 6 week old puppies had begun vomiting after being given a bath with a shampoo product containing the active ingredients Pyrethrins, Piperonyl Butoxide, and N-Octyl Bicyloheptene Dicarboximide. The puppy had been bathed within the last 5 hours, and the reporter had seen him lap up some of the bath water. The puppy had vomited 7-8 times since the bath. The reporter had consulted with her veterinarian, who recommend giving the puppy a small amount of Pepto-Bismol. She had done so and had also begun to withhold food. The safety profile of the product was discussed and electrolyte supplementation was recommended. The reporter was also advised to have the puppy evaluated by a veterinarian if symptoms persisted or worsened. The second puppy was reported to be asymptomatic. A follow-up call was placed the following day but the owner could not be reached. During a second follow-up call (4/9/08), the reporter was contacted and she revealed that puppy had been taken to the veterinarian. He had tested positive for Parvovirus on 4/4/08 and passed away on 4/7/08.
