18. Severity classification (if there is more than 1 possible classification

Death

19. Provide supplemental information here

O - Unclassifiable/unassessable Emesis and diarrhea are unspecific signs and may have many potential causes. Product may have been groomed off of the application site. Lethargy may be associated with reported digestive disorders. Time to onset is consistent. Reported death after product application is not expected in dogs, as it is inconsistent with the pharmaco-toxicological profile of the product. No signs of allergy/anaphylactic reaction reported. Time to onset is long. Other etiologies should be considered. Considering low level of information (medical history and necropsy details not available), a product connection is unassessable.
