I am thinking about converting my chlorine system pool to salt water. I've been told that the salt water pools are more economical and more maintenance free. However, I'm mainly concerned with how the dogs do with the salt water system. Mine like to drink out of the pool...............can't imagine that salt is any worse than chlorine. Also, how is it on the coat?? Any (private) input would be appreciated. Thanks.
