Years ago, I was visiting my folks who live in the dry part of the state and a very sparsely populated area. My Golden Retriever rolled in stuff, I rinsed it off.
The next day she was sick. Her ears were messed up. I took her to the vet and we figured she had rolled where somebody had emptied their holding tanks and the chemicals were making her break out around and in her ears. She was shaved around the ears, given shots and antibiotics and I got a nice bill.
But, this is the same dog that rolled on a dead porcupine. I pulled all the quills out except for one, and that was another trip to the vet.
