The Drool Is Out Of Control!

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

While they’re not quite in the same league as the world’s top droolers, Great Danes can still hold their own when it comes to drooling! However, the exact amount that your dog drools compared to other Danes is largely determined by their genetics.
Great Danes drool more than most other breeds due to their facial composition. Their square jaw and loose lips are not well suited to containing drool i.e. saliva. The folds in the skin allow it to pool and easily run out of the mouth. The worst drooling often occurs immediately after eating, drinking, or exercise.
To learn more about what to expect from Great Danes when it comes to drool, make sure to take a look at my full article at greatdanecare.com/why-great-d... .

    I grew up with two Danes, but as an adult I’ve forgotten everything except large poops and tons of love. I’ve been a Weimaraner enthusiast for many years, but we recently rescued a Dane that is apparently a Dane/Mastiff mix. He’s gorgeous and we love him. Right away, though, I noticed that he does not pant nearly as much as my Weim in situations of stimulation and heat. I first noticed during a car ride, where the Weim pants both from excitement and temp regulation. However, the Dane was hardly panting. This has been consistently true since we got him. During/after exercise, he seems more normal. Then as temps cooled, and we were relaxing on the patio on cool nights, I’ve noticed him shivering a little while lying next to me, when my Weimaraner (who actually gets cold pretty easily) is not yet cold. So it seems obvious that his temperature regulation is not what one would expect. Any experience with this? Should I be worried?

    Many things cause drool. I live out in the country and my Danes was all ways gently bringing me baby bunnies, snakes, frogs, baby mice. Certain things such as snakes an frogs make dogs drool. So do small teeth. Teeth really help hold in saliva, water. At this time I have an Anatolian Sheperd/Central Asian Shepherd an boy does she drool! I think it's all worth it for the love my big dogs an I have for each other. ♡♡♡

    Sometime I'd be interested in seeing your thoughts on raised feeders, I've seen some studies show that they are a contributing factor in bloat and can actually cause it while others recommend them.

    Do you have any advice on how to keep your Danes from getting your house super dirty? We can handle the drool but our problem is all of the mud and dirt they bring in the house! We try to wipe them down as much as we can but our back yard gets very muddy especially in the winter. I think the mud gets stuck inside of their paws. 😩 It doesn’t matter how much we try to stay on top of it our floors stay filthy.

    Does anyone’s GD drool, or I say drip because it’s not a constant drool or puddle like after drinking when they get up in the morning? Like sometimes after she wakes up she will just be walking around and we find drips of drool all around the kitchen floor.

    Is there any water bowl that helps to catch and seperate the drool so I don't need to change the water bowl everytime they drink? My dane slimes the water every single time he drinks so then my other dogs will not drink. Even with multiple bowls he just slims them all. So I need to change it each time he gets a drink. Its exhausting.
