Bleach should not harm the dog if it is in low diluted doses -always call the Vet though to be sure.

...Another method of purification is to strain the water as described above, and then to chemically purify it by adding liquid bleach or tincture of iodine.  Do not use granular forms of household bleach as they are poisonous.
For clear water, use two drops of bleach or three drops of tincture of iodine per liter.  If the water is cloudy, then these amounts should be doubled.  Store an eye dropper with your emergency supplies, to be used only for this purpose.
Mix thoroughly by stirring or shaking water in a container.  Let the water stand for 30 minutes.  A slight chlorine odor should be detectable.  If not then the dosage should be repeated and the water allowed to stand for an additional 15 minutes.
Liquid bleach loses strength over time.  For this reason I mark each bleach container with the current date.  If the bleach is one-year-old, double the amount. Two-year-old bleach should not be used.
