Sudden excessive drooling

Hi everyone. It's been a while since I posted on here - crazy summer and whatnot. But I'm now having a problem with my dog Timber that I'm pretty concerned about and looking for some insite.

First off, he just turned 1 yr old on Saturday
We got home from the cottage late Sunday night and he seemed fine. Then when I came home from work yesterday, I noticed a small puddle in his crate. At first I thought it was pee (I was a little late coming home) but I then realized it was drool. His front paws were wet too.
This is definitely not normal for him - he's a husky. Husky's don't drool.

But I didn't really notice him drooling in the evening when I was home, so I figured whatever it was, was gone.

Then I came home at lunch today and there was another puddle in his crate. His front paws are soaked and so is his chin.
I couldn't see anything wrong with his teeth or gums, and couldn't find anything lodged in his throat. He's eating and drinking fine and doesn't seem to really have any other symptoms.

I'm wondering if he maybe got some sort of poison from licking toads at the cottage (a fun pastime for him). It also crossed my mind that this could be some sort of separation anxiety since it seems to be much better while I'm at home. But why would it be starting all of a sudden?

Sorry for the long post, I'm just hoping to find some answers for my little guy. His brother seems fine, but I'm taking them both into the vet this afternoon.
