  I recently bought a English Spot junior buck at the county fair. I’m a new owner and I haven’t had a bunny since I was a kid. But I think something is off with my bunny. I have had him for a month now. In the beginning I thought he was allergic to something in the house because everything is new to him. But a month later he is sneezing more and he has a wheezing when he is laying down. His eating is fine and his bowls are normal and he is pee is normal. I need help I don’t know what to do but I am very worried about him. Someone please help me.

  You need to take your bunny to the vet.
  What you decribe is an upper respiratory infection. It’s not uncommon in young rabbits they can carry the bacteria with them from the breeder. It needs to be treated because it can become very serious and since he’s wheezing, it is already affecting his lungs. A vet is likely going to prescribe Baytril (enrofloxacine, a bunny-safe broad spectrum antibiotic).
  
  Please call a vet for an appointment. Many good healing-vibes for you and your little bunny.
