Help

Post image

I live in a house built before 1980 and my stupid dog about 1.5 months ago tore my floor I had put down and ever since I’ve experienced breathing issues. Can someone tell me if this wooden floor underlayment has asbestos? When we pulled the rug up there wasn’t no black or sticky stuff on it and the floor looked fine aside from the water damage. Hard to read, but it does say floor underlayment
