There are a few things that can cause your dog to drool excessively.

Dogs will drool if they feel nauseated but not to the point of vomiting.

They will also drool if they have mouth pain from a possible tooth or gum problem. Take a look in his mouth but you might not see anything. Sometimes tooth pain is not noticeable.

Sometimes they will drool if they have ingested garbage or other irritants and will drool if they have ingested poison.

Is your dog a male? Is there a female in heat somewhere nearby? If so, this could cause your dog to get really excited and drool because of it.

If this just started, you can just watch it and see if it gets better on its own.

If not, a vet could quickly diagnose it for you.

The most common cause of lethargy, vomiting and diarrhea in dogs is a parasite problem. If you have not recently seen the vet for a fecal exam, you should do so now.

Let me know if you have more questions.
