Dog drooling in car after hike: Is it car sickness or thirst?

Either sh chewed/ingested something that is causing this reaction in her mouth or she may be experiencing severe nausea. give it a couple hours to calm down, if it doesn't get any better by then- take her to your vet to get it checked and treated.

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.

Travel can make kittens nauseous, and a sign of nausea is excess drooling. I’d keep an eye on Kunji for now. If he keeps drooling or develops other signs such as vomiting and anorexia, have him seen by a vet. Best of luck.

Poor pup! It does sound like he may have been thirsty and a bit nauseous after the car ride, then vomited due to drinking too much water, too fast. Some excessive saliva or drooling at this point is not surprising, since this is usually a sign of nausea - he may still be feeling a bit ill from throwing up. If he is acting normal otherwise, I would suggest picking up his water bowl overnight to give his stomach a chance to settle. In the morning, you can feed him a small meal and offer water again, in small amounts at a time if he seems inclined to drink too much at once. If he has no further issues, then you shouldn't need to worry. If he continues to vomit during the night tonight, or if he is acting lethargic or not wanting to eat tomorrow morning, it would be best to have him examined by a vet since these could be signs of a more serious problem.

Drooling/salivation could be caused by a number of things, including stress, excitement, nausea, dental pain, toxin ingestion, a foreign body stuck in the mouth, injury to the tongue (as can happen with electrical injury from chewing on electrical cords) or bloat. If Vinny could have eaten anything such as medications, household cleaners, plants, toys, food scraps, or garbage, please have him seen by a vet right away, and let your vet know about it to help them determine if there could be toxicity. If no medical cause is noted, it could be stress/excitement induced, and I recommend working with a trainer who uses positive reinforcement techniques to help manage Vinny's stress and help him feel comfortable around other dogs.

Drooling can sometimes indicate issues such as nausea or stomach upset, or can sometimes happen if there is something suck in the mouth or throat causing irritation. If he is shaking and drooling and is not improving, it is best to seek veterinary care right away, especially since Tanjiro is so young.

Hypersalivation can be caused by issues swallowing, nausea, or dental disease. Sometimes, twigs or sharp objects can get logded between the teeth or in the palate, so you can take a look in Kola's mouth if he will allow it safely. Unfortunately, their is no "quick fix" as the cause is not known. If you believe that Kola is having trouble swallowing (dribbling water, unable to swallow food) he should be seen immediately, as he may aspirate and can develop pneumonia. Otherwise, you should monitor him closely and have him seen as soon as possible.
