The product, in the report: Small black dog tracking tag marked PawScout. The company uses their own proprietary batteries. Their battery number was on the battery retrieved from the child who died.
A two-year old child died as a result of ingesting a coin-sized battery. The battery was from a pet tracking tag which attaches to the dog’s collar called Paw Scout. The dog had chewed on the collar and battery housing and the battery had fallen on the floor unobserved. Medical care was provided on several occasions over the next few days. Unfortunately, the girl’s symptoms mimicked her brother who had the flu. The girl died as a result of ingesting the battery on September 26, 2021.
