(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-31055056 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated that her two dogs were exposed to an insecticidal product containing the active ingredient phenothrin. The pet owner reported that she applied this product to her 3-year-old, 75 pound, male Labrador Retriever named Lark (Subform III #1) and to her 3-year-old, 75 pound, male Labrador Retriever named Duke (Subform III #2) nine days prior to initial contact with the registrant. The following day Lark vomited intermittently throughout the day and was not eating. His symptoms resolved the next day. Four days prior to initial contact with the registrant, 5 days after product application, Duke was lethargic, not eating, and not getting up or walking. Duke was brought to the veterinarian and blood work showed an increased red blood cell count; which the veterinarian indicated was due to dehydration. A high fever and black stools were noted on exam. The dog was treated with intravenous fluids for the day and then sent home. That night at 1am the caller found the dog dead with blood coming out of his rectum. Caller was advised that stomach upset can be seen with ingestion of the product but Dukes symptoms would not be expected. Caller was further advised that there are numerous possible causes for the symptoms that were seen with Duke including exposure to rodenticides. No further information is available
