Answer

Anything that you think was life threatening should be addressed by a vet. How did he save her life?
Perhaps she was hyperventilating due to a stressful dream,
maybe she had a reaction to something she ate, maybe she had an asthma attack, maybe she has heartworm but there's no way to answer this without more information. Please take her to the vet if you're still afraid.
Good luck. I'm glad she's OK now.
