My dog got water in his nose while bathing. Is he going to be okay?

Question

About 2 hours ago I bathe my dog and by accident while rinsing it, water got into his nose and he had is head up. But he looks ok and does not make unusual noises or sneezes. Is he going to be alright? Pet's info: Dog | Havanese | Male | neutered | 4 years and 9 months old | 15 lbs

He should be fine - if he had aspirated the water or if it was bothering his nose I would expect to see sneezing or coughing. It's possible that the water ran down to the back of his throat and he swallowed it.
