Caution! Wet!

I know everyone has their little irks when it comes to dogs. Most people are smart enough to not go out and get such a dog due to those irks.

I in fact eliminated certain dogs from our list due to my irk knowing full well that in due time I would hate said dogs for that irk...

Now Charlie.. will either teach me to live with this irk and still love him.. or we shall have a very long talk.
...with our vet lol.

I can't stand drippy faces. I can stand hot car drippy... just drank drippy.. OMGYOURABOUTOGIVEMEASNACK drippy... and playtime drippy... but I can't stand.. I've-been-sleeping-all-day-but-my-face-still-feels-like-an-ocean drippy.

Seriously.. the kid will sit there.. and drool will drip to the floor so when I stand up after he moves it feels like he's peed in that spot..He constantly has this mass of spittle on his lower jaw like bigger dogs we all know that drip excessively....I can't greet the dogs when I get home from work until I change unless I want a huge wet spot on my work pants.. and I have to reclean my feet before going to bed because they're all sticky and gross...

Now.. you may find this funny because I could care less about dirty toys.. stinky dogs and hair all over the place.. but when I don't volunteer for my whole arm/legs/clothes to be wet and sticky I have issues.

so.. rant over...

Is there any way to help with this issue? We already know about brushing his teeth more.. and the house is wonderfully ACed to death.. is there something we're missing that may help?

Everything else is falling into place but I just... it's one of those rare girlygirl things I have.. lord knows I've rolled in the mud with Roxi when she was a puppy lol.

... now im embarrassed I let the cat out of the bag about my pet peeve. (harhar)

Do any of you have kids! Dog drool is nothing compared to some of the things you deal with when your kids are young. It is good training having dogs. LOL.

oooo I already have two furry little kids and that's enough for me. Though hearing/seeing from friends and family I believe you 100%!

Do you know if he has always been like that? My friend has a lab/boxer mix who suddenly started having drooling episodes that would last for a few hours- where water consistency drool was just continuously dripping or pouring from his mouth. Unfortunately his diagnosis was epilepsy and now he is on medication for that. I am sure it is very unlikely for this to be the case with Charlie - sounds like he is just a generally drooly dog - but I thought I'd mention it in case this came on suddenly or is that severe.

I am completely with you on being grossed out by too much drool. My brother dog sits for his friends neopolitan mastiff and I would never be able to handle all that drool! At least a drooly little corgi has to have less drool than a 140lb mastiff! Good luck with finding a slobber solution :)
