My dog was napping and ever since he woke up he has been drooling. This isn’t normal for him. He is a boxer mix, around 5 years of age and was last seen in Late Nov with a great check up.

Drooling can be a sign of issues such as nausea (from stomach upset) or problems with the mouth (broken teeth, dental disease, something stuck in the mouth/throat). If you suspect minor stomach upset, you can try offering a bland meal of boiled chicken and rice to help settle Apollo's stomach. If his drooling continues, he's pawing at his face, you can see something stuck or wrong inside the mouth, or he begins to vomit/become ill, a vet visit is best.
