1-22356800: The reporter, an animal owner, notified the registrant on 4/22/10 of the exposure of a 4 year old dog to a pesticide product containing the active ingredient Metaldehyde. The dog had ingested an unknown quantity of product 10 minutes prior to the call. The reporter was advised of the highly toxic nature of the active ingredient, even in small amounts. A recommendation was made to seek immediate veterinary care. Follow-up the next day revealed that two dogs (both females) were involved in the exposure. Both were taken to a veterinarian, where decontamination on both animals was done via gastric lavage. The 4 year old dog subsequently developed tremors and seizures and had died while under veterinary care. The second dog remained asymptomatic and was due to be discharged at the time of the callback.
