    Why Is My Dog Salivating So Much When Introduced To Our New Puppy?

    When my dog and the new puppy are together my dog will start to drool excessively and she never has had that problem. Can anybody help me understand?

    I think the puppy triggers her mothering instincts.  She wants to either wash the puppy or feed it, both of which stimuli make her salivate.  So long as there is no aggression from her I would not worry.  As the pup matures she will get over it.
    Dogs also dribble if they become over anxious. If she is troubled by the puppy and anxious a course of tranquilisers from the vet may help to calm her down.
