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

Owner applied product Aug 1 2013. Owner called clinic Aug 6 2013 to report that Lily seemed lethargic starting Aug 2, was better Aug 3 and was lethargic and drooling Aug 6. Pet was examined Aug 6 and lethargy, drooling and a loss of appetite was noted. Temp was 39.6 and the dog may have been uncomfortable in her cranial abdomen. Bloodwork and radiographs were unremarkable except for lots of food noted in the stomach and a mild neutropenia and mild elevation in bilirubin. Delayed gastric emptying was suspected. A few white blood cells were noted on urinalysis so a urinary tract infection was also deemed possible. Sucralfate, famotidine and Clavaseptin were prescribed. Owner decided to get ultrasound done on Aug 8 (DVM didnt recommend). Repeat bloodwork at OVC was normal and ultrasound was unremarkable. Dog was recovered Aug 12 2013. Dog regularly attends doggie daycare. Owner feels dog may have been lethargic for one day after July application. Neither veterinarian feels this reaction was product related.
