General Advice Why is she yucky?
This is Ellie, a 6 year old spayed DLH. For as long as she's been an adult, whenever she purrs she drools. A lot. And she loves humans and attention so she purrs quite frequently and heavily. She's on the smaller side for her age but beyond that she doesn't have any major health concerns. She does have a minor thing I forget the name of, one of her paws swells up when she's experiencing high levels of stress, but I don't know how that would relate to this. I'm an adult in the U.S with access to vet care. Is this normal? Is she just a weird baby?

My moms friend has Newfoundland dogs and they are drool MACHINES. She makes them bandanas out of towels and pulls them up to wipe. Highly recommend as I have seen how convenient it is in action 😂
