Yes , It was a pretty scary , I am still not sure he is over it ! I had him out training Monday night was a cool night , during a little guarding in the blind his tung started turning a little blue . His pinch was on as normal ,but was just to much for him to handle. After taking it off he was fine. I have also had him swimming sense and he seems to be ok , but now maybe I am just watching thing a little to close, I freak every time I see him do some thing different out of the norm. I am sure the build up to going swimming had a lot to do with what happen.

I would like to mention my vet told me to have rubbing alcohol on hand ( first aid kit ) to rub on the stomach after cooling down the underside parts with COOL water NOT COLD water.
