Hi. The eyes running could be from allergies, yes. The drooling though isn't associated with allergies. It could be nausea, or some kind if exposure to a toxin or something. It is hard to say. We would need a full exam and more history to begin narrowing things down. I'd get him examined and also check all of environment for anything he could have gotten in to. Good luck.
