[QUOTE="Allen, post: 472466, member: 389"] Like KDM, I have an awful lot of respect for cold water. I would suspect none of these people thought they were actually putting their life on the line when going after their dog, or out fishing. I drink very rarely nowadays when I'm fishing, especially if I'm the driver as I think it's important that the skipper of the boat remains fully able to assist anyone on the vessel if a problem arises. There's always time for a beer after the fish are cleaned. I've been lucky a few times in my youth where I've fallen through the ice out trapping muskrats, fishing, etc. I've also jumped overboard while commercial fishing with waders on into what I thought was just a couple feet of water, but as my face passed the gunwale of the barge, I thankfully grabbed the gunwale as my waders filled immediately. All I can say on this is bad things can happen when out in nature, and quite literally it can happen in the blink of an eye. My recommendation is to not do anything hasty if the dog gets into trouble, etc. [/QUOTE]
