Doggy Daycare Smell

So my guy has been going to daycare for a little bit now, typically once a week. Every time he’s picked up he smells so so bad, like urine and wet dog. He also has a disgusting texture to him, like powdery and greasy at the same time. I work in vet med, so I’m well aware of how dogs play and the slobber and all of that, but I feel like this is excessive. I get animal facilities are smelly, but typically there is cleaning protocols in place and I know at my job if a dog soils itself or gets dirty we clean them.

We asked the facility what the smell and texture is, they said they put a waterless shampoo on him (but why is he still powdery? I have not encountered a powder waterless shampoo), so we requested for that not to be used and for him just to be rinsed but he’s still so disgusting. It’s to the point where I had to roll my windows down on the way home cause my entire car smelt, and I’m sitting down next to him now (AFTER using a million wipes on him) and my eyes are burning. Is this typical of all doggy daycares? I’m going to try another to compare but I know a vet hospitals and daycare facilities are different so I just don’t know what the “normal” is. I expect some stink but this is crazy.

I also want to mention, he has white spots on him which are visibly brown/yellow, and the wipes have that same brown/yellow residue on them after they’re used on him.
