My dog has a cavity and is drooling a lot. Is this normal. We are going to bring her to the vet soon but is she ok for now?

Excess drooling is a symptom of periodontal disease. As long as Comet is not painful, she can likely wait until tomorrow. She may need a thorough dental cleaning and may require extraction of the bad tooth.
