My dog is drooling puddles after bug spray. Should I be worried?

It sounds like Charlie is nauseous. Feed him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the excessive drooling continues on the bland diet, he refuses to eat the bland diet, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away.

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Sully. Poor boy! Drooling is a sign of nausea. Feed him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts. If he refuses to eat the bland diet, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away.

I’m sorry to hear that Charlie isn’t feeling well! Chronic vomiting is a cause for concern as it may be caused by toxin ingestion, kidney or liver disease, a foreign body, intestinal parasites, and even certain cancers. Charlie’s increased salivation is a very common sign of nausea. I recommend having her seen by a vet as soon as possible to determine what is going on. Your vet may perform some blood work and take x-rays to get an accurate diagnosis. I hope this helps and that all is well with Charlie!

Poor Buddy! It sounds like he may be nauseous. I can give you a home remedy to see if that helps. Withhold food for 12-24 hours, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If he vomits in the absence of food, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!

Poor Ruger! He could be painful or nauseous. Try feeding him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts a couple of times a day. If this helps the drooling, feed him the bland diet for a couple of days, and then start adding back in his normal diet. Should the drooling continue on the bland diet, then I would take him into the vet. I hope this helps!

This could be from his being nausea after eating what he wasn't suppose to. He could have eating something else that you didn't see him eat. Is there any way he could have gotten a hold of a frog/lizard even for a brief moment? These can cause excessive drooling. There are other toxins that can cause that as well. I would have your vet take a look at him as soon as possible just in case this was some type of weird toxin. If a toxin goes left untreated, it could progress and get worse and be much harder to treat. I hope this helps and hopefully it is just him being nauseous.

Poor Chunk. Drooling is often a sign of nausea or stress. I would continue to watch him closely and make sure he does not become sick. I would limit his activity for the rest of the day and keep his meals small. If he starts vomiting you may want to have him seen by a veterinarian.
