(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-18164003: A reporter (veterinarian) called on 04/19/2009 to report the possible exposure of a dog to an herbicide containing the active ingredient Corn Gluten Meal. According to the reporter, the product had been applied to the yard on an unknown date. The dog was not witnessed ingesting the product, but she may have had access to the treated area. The dog's owner noted ataxia on the day of the report, and the dog was presented to the reporter. The reporter was advised that the product has a low level of toxicity and a wide margin of safety. Ingestion of small amounts of product may result in minor GI upset (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), but neurologic signs are not expected. A recommendation was made to rule out other causes for the signs. On follow up, the reporter stated that the dog's signs were treated and she was doing well. No cause was determined for the signs. No further information was obtained.
