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

Owner applied as a spot-sprayed to the weeds according to label instructions yesterday afternoon (5/23) and they kept the dog out of the yard until this morning. Dog was out first this am, and again just now. Dog just vomited about 20 minutes ago. Caller notes Tex did not eat this morning (sometimes he does not eat breakfast). Dog vomited 1x bright yellow (thick saliva, 2-inch circle) (suspect bile). The owner was advised to closely monitor his attitude and digestion tonight through tomorrow morning, want to see him back to normal by morning. no water or food x 1 hr now, then water back and 1 tsp yogurt; if ok after 2 hrs, can graduate to normal feeding tonight; ensure restful and comfortable tonight. During a follow up call the owner stated that Tex is at home and made sure he was kept quiet and comfortable. She followed the NPO plan for one hour. There was no vomiting, so she gave him water and a tsp of yogurt. She waited another 2 hours and still there was no vomiting, so she gave him his food. It was his regular food, not specifically a bland diet as what was recommended. He has not had any GI symptoms. Owner says he seems to have made a full recovery.
