<p>Hi,</p><p>I'm sorry to hear that your Dobie is having this issue. Drooling along with swollen glands often indicates infection. While the antibiotics did not help, this might indicate a dental issue, salivary gland cyst, or reaction (can range for problem with an insect bite or sting, applied flea medications etc). These should be investigated further by your vet. Some cancers can also cause these symptoms, however this is not particularly common in dogs this young. Consider picking up a canned food like Hill's I/D and an over the counter paste called Nutri Cal (calorie suppliment for dogs when they are not feeling well). You can also offer a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice, chicken broth without onoins and/or chicken baby food without onions to hlep him heat. I hope he's feeling better soon.</p><p>Please click "ACCEPT" or if you need more information "REPLY"</p>

Hi,
Some dogs can have reactions to flea and tick medication.   These can run the gambet in symptoms with some reporting swollen glands and drooling (generally soon after application). For example, theres a website www.hartzvictims.org in which indivduals report negative reactions there dogs have taken from flea products. If you suspect this may be the culprit, let your vet know and also call the manufactuer of the product. Your vet may need to put your Dobie on an oral antihistamine and /or oral steroid. I hope he's doing better soon.

Hi,
I would lean toward a cyst on the gland or infection of it since this progressed over the course of weeks. In some cases, a stronger antibiotic or longer duration may be needed. You may want to ask your vet to do a culture as this can help to pinpiont the best medication route to take (for example, fungal infections may also cause swelling but would be treated with a different medication). I hpoe he's doing better soon.
