[PyrNet-L] grooming & question

Hi Galaxi, It's kathy.......From what I have learned of Pyrs, they usually love water, mud, puddles, etc. Since I can't always bathe Heidi, I brush her with A mixture of 2 parts corn starch to 1 part baby powder. If she's real smelly (not very often), I use baking soda instead of the baby powder. Be sure to buy baby powder without talc. Talc is not only bad for her lungs but humans as well. I usually brush her every other day, whether she needs it or not. I do this in the evening & it calms her down for bed. I've been using the above for a year & a half on my Samoyed who has a very heavy double coat & HATES water. It works very well.

QUESTION? Could someone please tell me the name of the procedure to correct slobbering? I'm trying to see if there is a Vet in our area who is familiar with & has done this procedure, before we have her spayed so she only needs 1 round of anesthesia. By the way, wish I had known about spaying early. I would have had it done sooner. She will be getting spayed in 2wks. She'll be 6mos old.
