Why Do Dogs Slobber So Much?

Cooling Off: Dogs don’t sweat like humans. They pant to cool down, and slobber is part of that process. So, if your dog is drooling on a hot day, it’s just their way of keeping cool.

Excitement: Ever notice how your dog starts drooling the minute you open a bag of treats? That’s because slobber is their way of saying, “Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!” Dogs get extra drooly when they’re excited or anticipating something tasty.

Breed-Specific Traits: Let’s face it, some dogs are just drool factories. Breeds like Saint Bernards, Bloodhounds, and Mastiffs are known for their excessive slobbering thanks to their loose jowls. If you’ve got one of these breeds, you’re probably a pro at keeping towels handy, especially if you discover it difficult to keep dark clothes stain-free. November 16 is National Slobber Appreciation Day ~ Happy Day!

It is with a very heavy heart that we let everyone know our beloved clinic cat, Elmo, has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge this afternoon. He was a part of our Bluegrass family for well over 15 years and certainly took his job very seriously. From greeting clients and patients, perching on crates and shoulders and always ready for a ray of sunshine- he was truly one of a kind. We will MISS you Elmo.
Please keep our staff and Doctors in your thoughts and prayers as we start a different chapter in our lives without our Elmo.
💙💙💙 RIP Elmo - Greatest Clinic Cat Ever
