NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! and beware of any breeder who tells you that they have dry mouthed Saints- they don't exist. Some Saints will drool more than others, and some won't even drool that bad, but all in all Saint Bernards drool. In the end you come to not even notice it, and I think that drool is so worth it to have one of these dogs!! Good luck in your decision.

I don't know about Saints, but I do know with Newfs (who can drool buckets  :D) some breeders have dogs with tighter mouths than others, but I don't think you can get them "drool-free"....it's just part of the breed.  If being drool-free is important, maybe consider another breed....like a Bernese Mt. Dog or some of the other giants.  They all have great attributes.... just ask anybody here! ;D

Theoretically, you can get a saint that has been bred to have smaller jowels (which mean less drool).

Zoey has smaller jowels... I'll let you judge for yourself how effective they are for drool control :D

I don't have a saint, but even my dobies, who are a very tight mouthed breed will drool. Given the right provocation, you can have a lake under any breed.
