How to Keep Your House Clean When You Have a Slobbery Dog

If you're the proud parent of a lovable, slobbery dog, you already know the deal. Big smile, wagging tail… and drool everywhere! Whether you’ve got a Saint Bernard, a Mastiff, or just a pup who drools like it’s his job, keeping your home clean can feel like a full-time gig. Don’t worry—we’ve got the dog care tips (and the towel) to help you win the battle against dog slobber.

Why Do Dogs Drool So Much?

First, let’s talk about why your pup is such a drool machine. Dog drool is totally normal, especially in dog breeds with loose lips and jowls. When your dog sees food, gets excited, or even when it’s hot out, those slobbery glands kick into high gear. Unfortunately, that often means wet spots on the couch, slime trails on the floor, and a constantly damp dog bed.

Don’t panic—there are easy ways to manage the mess.

Top Dog Breeds Known for Drooling

Not all dogs drool equally—some breeds are just born to slobber! If you're considering adding a pup to your family or you're wondering why your dog leaves a trail of slime wherever they go, check out these famously drooly dog breeds:

• Saint Bernard – These gentle giants are world-famous for their massive size... and massive drool.

• Mastiff – These big breeds come with big slobber potential.

• Newfoundland – Sweet and fluffy, but watch out for the drool puddles!

• Bloodhound – Their long, loose lips make them major droolers.

• Boxer – Energetic and loving, but also pretty leaky around the mouth.

• Great Dane – Their size means more space for slobber to build up.

• Basset Hound – With those droopy faces and big jowls, drooling is part of the charm.

• Bulldog (English and French) – Their wrinkled faces and short snouts mean extra slobber, especially in hot weather.

• Bernese Mountain Dog – Gorgeous and gentle... but expect some drool with all that fluff.

5 Drool-Busting Tips to Keep Your House Clean

1. Keep a Dedicated Slobber Towel Handy

The easiest (and best) way to deal with dog drool? Wipe it up as it happens. Enter the Squishface Slobber Towel—your new best friend. This towel is made from 100% cotton, is super absorbent, and is built to last. It’s soft on your pup’s face but tough enough to handle the slimiest messes. Keep one by the door, in the car for after outdoor adventures, or right on the couch. Trust us—your furniture will thank you.

2. Clean Their Face Regularly

A quick wipe a few times a day helps reduce buildup around your dog’s mouth and chin. Use Squishface Wrinkle Wipes or your trusty slobber towel. This not only cuts down on drool around the house, but it also helps prevent skin irritation and bacteria from forming in the folds of your dog’s skin (especially for breeds like Bulldogs or Boxers).

3. Lay Down Washable Covers

Got a favorite doggy hangout spot on your couch or bed? Lay down washable blankets or slipcovers. These catch the slobber before it hits your nice upholstery, and they’re super easy to toss in the wash. Pro tip: stick with dark colors or fun patterns to help hide any unexpected slime trails between washes.

4. Invest in a Waterproof Dog Bed

If your dog sleeps like a champ (but drools like a fountain), a waterproof dog bed is a must. Look for beds with removable, washable covers. Some even have waterproof liners to protect the foam inside. No more soggy dog beds that smell like… well, dog drool.

5. Clean Floors Regularly

Drool doesn’t just stay on your dog—it drips. And pools. And splatters. Keep floors clean with a pet-safe floor cleaner and mop up daily if you’ve got a serious slobber situation. Hard floors like tile or laminate are easier to clean than carpet, so consider using area rugs that can be easily washed or replaced.
