(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
The dog was vomiting, sharking and panting that evening and the owner reported it was like he "was going to have a seizure". The dog improved after 48 hours but was still vomiting, not eating or drinking well, not wanting to move around/go outside. The dog was recovered after approx 7 days. The dog has a similar response after product use the previous month.

18. Severity classification (if there is more than 1 possible classification
Minor
19. Provide supplemental information here
B - Possible
Reported vomiting is more expected after oral uptake than after dermal application of the product. However, an oral product uptake cannot be excluded. Sharking is an unspecific sign. However, it may be a consequence of the uncomfortable feeling caused by the applied product. Panting is not expected with appropriate topical product use. It may rather be a behavioural reaction to product sensation than a sign of respiratory illness. Later reported systemic disorders are unspecific signs. However, they may be associated with reported vomiting. Though time to onset is bit long (2 days) for later reported signs, considering consistent time to onset for initial signs, a product connection is deemed to be possible.
