When I got my dog, I was told not to let him drink green water while out hunting, because that could kill him. I've never figured out what green water is unless it's stagnated water with moss in it. If he was drinking just muddy water he should be fine. Any moving water should be fine. I've learned over the course of the last six years that dogs can be some what picky about the water they drink. If hot and tired they can and will drink just about anything and will lay in just about everything to cool down. Carry a water bottle with you while out and about and you should do all right. Think about it this way. How many retrievers have you ever seen that will go through some of the nastiest stuff you have ever seen, and 99% of them come out fine. When they retreive a bird of some sort out of that, you know they get some in their mouth and swallow it. May not be good for them and may give them the SH@@s, but they are usually fine. I had both of our shorthairs run through an oil pit last year while they was hunting and other than stink for a week they was fine, granted they didn't drink any of it, but they was sure oiled up for a while. Anyway I think your dog should be fine.
