    Where'd you get that information?? We've certainly had our share of URI's come in our hospital, and unless they are getting re-infected or they have other health issues (ie. leukemia, FIV etc) it's rare that more than two rounds maximum of antibiotics are required, and the vast majority of them may never have problems again.

    Freedom, He has been off meds off for a while...maybe I'll just consider calling the vets just because in three weeks he'll be going in for his neutering.

    Yes I would like to know where you got this information as well.

    I hope he doesn't get it again it was hard enough and is still trying to get him to stop sneezing. Although he seems to get better I just want to keep him healthy before he gets fixed.
