Some times we have dogs that just love to drool. They can be a huge challenge to keep dry until their owners get to the shop. This is Lexie and left in a cage, even with her buddy, she will be wet to her toes without some creative intervention by us.
One way to solve the problem is to have the ownrs come back right away and pick up the dogs after they are finished, but that doesn't always work.
A simple solution is to hang a small fan on the cage to keep the faces and feet dry even if the pet drools. Many times a box fan will top the pet from drooling as well for some reason I cannot figure out.
Use it on low and secure it with a short grooming loop fed through the handle and VIOLA! Dry dogs that only need a quick brush out before handing them off to mom and dad!
If you like, you can use a clip on desk fan or even the fans made for carriers, but I find that a box fan on low does a great job, and box fans are inexpensive, easily available and very quiet.
Hope this saves you some stress, time and aggrevation!
