(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms

1-25949519- The reporter, a pet owner, indicates his animal may have been exposed to a rodenticide containing the active ingredient diphacinone. The pet owner indicated he had placed the product in a Styrofoam cup on his porch two days prior to his initial report. He indicates the following morning he noted four ¿ inch pellets were missing from the product he had place on the porch. He indicates his ten year fifty five pound female Labrador retriever had access to the product and was concerned the animal had eaten the product. He did not observe and ingestion. The caller reports the animal demonstrated the signs of lethargy and loss of appetite the morning of his initial contact with the registrant. The pet owner was advised the animal had ingested 8.4-10 grams based on his description. An actionable ingestion in a fifty five pound dog would be 49.5 grams. Despite the fact that toxicity would not be expected he was advised to seek prompt veterinary attention for the signs seen. He was advised of the mechanism of action of the active ingredient, standards of care, and prognosis. Follow up was obtained four days later. At this point the caller indicated the animal had died one day following his initial contact. He had not sought veterinary assistance. The caller indicated he had thought the animal had died due to a hookworm infestation, but was unable to substantiate the assertion. No further information is available.
