(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unknown date in 2004, the dog had vomiting after eating something unknown in the yard. The dog was examined by a veterinarian and it is unknown what if any tests or treatments were performed at that time. On a later date the dog died of unknown causes. No necropsy was performed.
Death
The sign, vomiting, is reported to be subsequent to the oral uptake of 'a substance' in the yard, therefore it is likely that the vomiting is related to this oral uptake, and not to the product administration. Moreover, oral product uptake is not reported.Death not expected in dogs after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Very low level of information (state of health and time to onset unknown - necropsy not available) as the intent of the phone call to Bayer was to ask if the product could be used on a new pet, and not to report the death of the patient. Other etiologies more probable. No signs of allergy/anaphylactic reaction reported. Even though time to onset unknown, occurrence of sign within window of allergic/anaphylactic reaction (within 1 day) unlikely, as would have been reported in close proximity. Considering all aspects, product connection deemed to be unlikely.
