hi everyone,
This is my first post so go easy on me.
my 3 year old rabbit benji (dwarf lop) has had teeth problems since the day i got him, mainly because he will not chew anything apart from his food, this causes his teeth to grow quite long and about every 8 weeks he has to go to the vet to get them cut back.
3 weeks ago the vet put him under sedation to cut his front teeth and to file down his back teeth.
The problem now is that he has a constantly wet chin, chest and paws.
He is eating very well with no signs of any illness.
Has anyone seen this with other rabbits as he has never had the wet chin etc before.
I do not know what to do at the moment, does he maybe need an x-ray or is there potentially other problems with him. The vet did not mention if he had any other problems.
Thanks
kirsty
