Hello. My Shih Tzu boy normally doesn't need a bath in between his visits to the groomer. However, the dog walker today allowed him to go swimming in a lake (something that he has NEVER before shown an interest in doing!) and he smells terribly of damp sheep/mop.
Would baby talc be okay as a one-off? Or should I just wait until the local independent dog shop reopens on Tuesday, and get him some proper dog dry shampoo?
Thanks.

No just bathe him with baby shampoo. Talc can irritate eyes etc
