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

1-40828042 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated that her dog may have been exposed to a rodenticide containing the active ingredient diphacinone. Two days prior to initial contact with the registrant the reporters 5-month-old, 10 pound mixed breed dog ran loose all day through the neighbors property. The following day the dog was vomiting and not eating. These symptoms persisted through the next day and then that night blood started coming out of the dogs rectum. The dog was brought to the veterinarian and at the time of the initial call the dog was at the clinic. The veterinarian had run a parvovirus test and checked for antifreeze exposure and both tests came back negative. The reporter called her neighbor who indicated that she did have some Ramik green on her property that the dog may have accessed but no exposure to the product had been witnessed. The reporter was advised that although the dog tested negative for parvovirus this test can be falsely negative and given the age of the dog and the described symptoms this should still be considered as possible differential. The reporter was further advised that if symptoms were from exposure to this product the antidote is vitamin K1 but once bleeding has begun the dog often needs additional treatment. On follow-up call, five days later, the reporter indicated that the veterinarian sent the dog home on vitamin K1 but the dog died at home. No additional information is available.
