My dog has diarrhea, drooling, and looks exhausted. Should I worry?

Question

My 5 years old female german pointer started drooling excessively after having a lot of diarrhea today. Is there anything I could do? She looks thin and exhausted. Should I be concerned? Pet's info: Dog | German Shorthaired Pointer | Female | spayed | 5 years and 3 months old | 75 lbs

Hi. Yes this does sound concerning. Drooling is a sign of nausea usually, or an oral irrirant or lesion in the mouth. If she has diarrhea too, I would say its most likely nausea. This can be caused by gi disease, something they ate, infection, something stuck in intestines, or many other causes. She should be seen with these signs.
