Hi and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Allie received roughly around a 3.7 mg/kg dose of Proin. According to the ASPCA, dogs that ingested this much can be normal or they can have a slow heart right and high blood pressure.
If Allie shows any signs of agitation or restlessness, vomiting, diarrhea or lethargy, I would take her into the emergency veterinarian tonight. She may need fluids and activated charcoal.
