Shepphard could be nauseous or have a dental problem causing the excessive salivation, and eating grass can also indicate nausea. The cloudy eye could be due to cataracts. It's very conquering that he won't eat his food. I'd have him seen by a vet now to get this diagnosed and treated. Best of luck.
