Strong offensive odor indicates bluegreen algae and a potential for it producing toxins when it dies. Don't let your dog swim among it and then lick-eat the algae off its fur. Spray it with the Cutrine-Plus mixture every time it forms the aggregated downwind shoreline patches. the nutrient balance in the water determines what grows in terms of different types of plytoplankton. Report your results.
