(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
3/22/2017 Product was applied as pre-emergent treatment of the lawn at the customer's residence on numerous occasions, most recently being on 10/31/2016. The customer's dog died on 11/6/2016. Product was applied at 4 ounces per acre instead of the recommended 6 ounces per acre. It is unknown how the dog may have been exposed to the product and when. It is also unknown when the dog started to experience symptoms and when treatment was sought. A provided statement from the treating veterinarian states that despite diuretic therapy, oxygen support, and aggressive medical care, the dog passed away. She is strongly suspicious that the dog's death is the result of acute and chronic exposure to the product. At home the dog showed symptoms of muscle tremors, sedation, and inability to masticate. She feels that the dog would not have died without exposure to the product. Specific treatments, lab values, tests, past medical history and physical exam results are not provided.
