Drooling may be due to the teething period
If the dog is in a normal state of mind and eating and drinking well, it is recommended to carefully examine the dog’s mouth and look at the teeth and gums. Are there red and swollen gums? Or the dog was in the teething period at that time, and the dog’s teeth were loose. When eating hard things, they hit the teeth that are about to change, causing looseness, and the teeth are about to fall out. If the gums are red and swollen, buy anti-inflammatory medicine for your dog! That’s it!
Or because they are born with a lot of saliva
Dogs are born to drool. Generally, large dogs tend to drool more than small dogs. Dogs that are born to drool, such as Tibetan Mastiffs, Chow Chows, and Bulldogs.
Or due to overheating
If the weather is too hot, or the dog has just finished strenuous exercise, it is normal for the dog to drool. Because the dog can only use its toe meat and tongue to dissipate heat, just give the dog enough water to drink at this time.
Or due to the excitement of facing food
Normal conditioned reflex. For example, if the dog sees something delicious, or certain circumstances cause the dog to become excited, the conditioned reflex will cause the dog's salivary glands to secrete vigorously and drool more.
It may be due to dog muscle problems
The muscles in the dog’s mouth are loose and droopy. For example, if an old dog's mouth is not tightly sealed, drool will leak out severely.
Or due to oral injuries
The dog’s mouth is injured and the mandible is fractured, resulting in increased drooling.
Reminder, if you find that your dog is drooling more, you must first prepare enough drinking water for your dog, and then determine the cause in time and treat it symptomatically. If you are not sure, you should seek medical advice promptly.
