Why is my dog drooling so much and exhausted after doggie daycare?

Question

My dog started doggie day care, because of a relocation to Florida, he only goes 2 days a week, but each time this far the photos they show me within his report card, he is shown drooling as if he is a bull mastiff. I am a little concerned about this, he is at daycare for atleast 10hrs a day. When I pick him up he drinks a whole bottle of water on the ride home. Then he will rest the whole next day in his crate, he is exhausted. Is this normal? Please see photos.... Thanks Jessica.

Drooling is often a sign of stress in dogs or can even be a sign of overstimulation/hyperexcitement and it may be that the doggie daycare is stressing him out an awful lot. Seeing if he can be in a "quiet" or "shy dog" area and if that improves his drooling may help, otherwise, seeing if there are alternatives to the doggy daycare that may be more comfortable for him may be best. If the drooling continues even with the changes, or you see any other signs of illness, seeking out a veterinary exam is best to make sure there isn't an underlying health cause to the issue.
