| HELP! 11 wk old puppy drooling a LOT We are in the car on the way home from picking up our new puppy. Before I make a fool of myself calling the breeder I wanted to check with you guys. New puppy is drooling profusely. Like all under her chin. Is this teething? Car sickness? Something else? She wasn't drooling like this while we were visiting with the breeder. Thanks so much! -C

| Whew! Car sickness I can handle. I was just panicking because I've never seen so much drool! She did throw up a bit just before I posted and it seems to be not as bad as it was. Our first Yorkie has never had problems riding in the car. Here I thought a second dog would be easier because I'd already been through everything once. Guess not! So glad you guys are here to help! -C

YT 1000 Club Member | Keep in mind that either a lot or little, it's a loss of fluids. So if it's a long period in the car, they have no spill Water Bowls you might think about making available to her. I use this one... http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...&lmdn=Category

| Thanks for the link! Luckily we only had a two hour drive. She's passed out right now but she did drink quite a bit and had a little food as well as some nutrical. Hopefully she'll eat more after she napped. Also, the drooling has stopped. Thanks for all the quick responses! Really put my mind at ease!

| That's great that she has had a good drink and eaten some before sleeping. I agree most likely just a case of nerves for her - poor thing. But congratulations on your brand new puppy! I'm sure you feel better now that you're home with her too.

| Poor girl, she was probably just stressed about leaving her home and a little car sick.

Katie Scarlett's Mommy Donating Member | Katie Scarlett did this the first few times she rode in the car. I think it was just her getting used to the motion of the car. She's fine now though. It only took maybe 3 car rides for her to get over the drooling.

| Just wanted to thank you all again for the quick replies. I was just so scared when I saw so much drool...I've never seen a dog produce that much slobber! I thought I was bringing home a St. Bernard! We made the second leg of our trip this morning with Karli and she did better. Not nearly so much drool and she only threw up a small amount once when we stopped to let her stretch her legs about 45 minutes in to the 2.5 hour trip. After that, she slept the rest of the way. When we got home, she peed and then ate/drank some. Sure hope we can continue to get her used to the car! -C

| Glad you made it home with things going a bit better. Drooling can be a sign of fear or stress. Hopefully, after she is adjusted to the new home you can take her for some short rides in the car to try to get her accustomed to the it. |
