Just got back from a hunting trip ,next day my springer was drooling and has a fair sized lump under his chin.Looked it up on the web and it sounds like sialocele or a blockage of a salivary gland. Says that a grass seed getting in there could be one cause. Has anyone else had to deal with this? Will have to go to vet Mon. and see whats up.
 
I have not had anything like that, but I would guess you may be correct on the issue.

Good luck, and let us know what the cause is.
 
That's a new one to me! but it makes me think about dog insurance again! between the rye, gree-blue poisonious algae, blown out knees, and this? Might be cheaper!
 
well swelling has gone down alot, vet says could have ran into something or maybe a bee or hornet sting, hopefully thats it. Said if it's a grass seed it will be another issue but seems to be clearing up
