Instructions
Give your dog free access to fresh water at all times. The sloppy drinking habits of these dogs will help wash away some of the drool. The more your dog drinks, the more drool gets washed away.
Wipe the drool off once or twice a day gently with a damp rag. Make sure to wipe in between any folds of skin, where the most irritation occurs.
Put a bib on your dog. You can use a specially made dog bib, or tie a bandanna loosely around your dog's neck. This coverage will prevent saliva from getting to the skin on your dog's neck.
Contact your veterinarian for advice. He may recommend daily use of an ointment, such as lanolin, to prevent chaffing and irritation from the drool. Always ask your vet before applying anything to your dog's skin.
