  Hello!
  
  My little 6-month-old bunny has had the sniffles since January. I’ve taken her to the vet multiple times they’ve given her both TMP/SMZ and Batryl the last two rounds. When starting the antibiotics she seems to improve but once the treatment is done she starts sneezing up a storm again.
  
  She’s been off this last round of Batryl for about a week but the white mucus and sneezing are getting more frequent again. Some suggest that since she’s shedding, that might be a trigger for the constant sneezing. But these sniffles sound more congested than before.
  
  Her diet is totally normal and she’s still very hyper and active but I just can’t seem to kick these sniffles.
  
  I’m really trying to avoid expensive medical procedures like x-rays and cultures, so looking to see if anyone has any alternative methods or insight since the antibiotics aren’t working.
  
  I’ve read that VetRX has helped as well.
  
  Thank you in advance for the help!

  Any other symptoms? She is young, but tooth root problems are not unheard of in young rabbits.
