My Labrador has an episode of excessive drooling last night, soaking everything she laid on. She’s fine this morning but it worried me. She had no other symptoms

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Drooling is sometimes a sign of nausea. It could have been that something she ate upset her belly. If this happens again, I would recommend that you have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Otherwise, she is likely fine if this went away. Best of luck!
