This sounds serious. It almost sounds like Biscuit may have had a type of seizure episode and drooling is a sign of nausea. Another possibility is a toxin ingestion leading to abnormal neurological signs. At any rate Biscuit should really see a vet to be evaluated right away. If he did invest a toxin, he will need to be detoxed to help rid the toxin and help stabilize his condition. If he had a seizure, then bloodwork analysis should be done to look for underlying causes and medicaitons to help stabilize him. Best of luck with your pet Biscuit. I hope he gets wel soon. Take care.
