Drooling
Hi,
My Flatcoat Retriever mix, now 2 years old, rescued at 8 months, has a 'different' (to me anyway) behavior trait. When he meets other dogs, he drools excessively. He's like a dripping faucet from his mouth. Anyone else notice this on their dogs? He is extremely friendly with most dogs, but he gets so excited to see them, they end up all wet. It's actually kind of funny to see. Just wondering. TJ -- Don't spend 2 dollars to have a shirt dry cleaned. Donate it to the Salvation Army. They'll clean it and put it on a hangar. Next morning you can buy it back for 75 cents. |

It's actually kind of funny to see. I've got a Siberian Husky that does that. In fact, he drooled to excess his first three weeks after he moved here. It's atypical for the breed and I find it a bit obnoxious, but it makes it easy to tell when he's excited. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - Since January 2001 the federal budget outlook for 2002-2011 has deteriorated by $8.8 trillion. |

Blade and Clovis do that when it is dinner time but I have never seen them do it with another dog. Blade will literally leave a puddle on the ground if I am giving them something extra and preparing it. Gwen |

(i love bunny season. no, really.) -- shelly (perfectly foul wench) and elliott and harriet http://home.bluemarble.net/~scouvrette |
