Shampoo after swim ?

Went to the lake with friends today and it’s the first time that I let the girls off lead Surprised

(other than on the canine school grounds)
I know Opium loves water as she’s the kind who deliberately goes through any puddle, so she wasn’t going to miss the opportunity of following my friend’s border collie into the water !

Just wondering if you all wash your dogs after a swim in lake/sea ?
I gave her a quick wash with this shampoo to avoid any skin irritation (and also for hygiene reasons as she lounges on the sofa, etc)

I rinse Katy off after being in water, especially the sea to get the salt off her. Bet Opium had a great time Smile

Did Nifty go in?

I've never bathed my dogs after they've been for a swim unless it's the sea, or a particularly stinky pond, and i only rinsed them off after the sea to get the salt out.
