In my experience my first vets deemed any rabbit over two as old, that for starters isn't great. I have had the 'we can do this and this treatment but it's veeery expensive' along with the often negative 'it probably won't work/ do much good' talks.
To cut a long story short I wish I knew then what I know now, I know now that with a couple of my buns I could have done more but at the time I've trusted the vet or felt silly questioning them. Something I'll never do again, now if I think of something after, I'll always ring them back up or bring it up and the next appointment.
I'm also currently looking for a new rabbit savvy vet/ practice as I don't feel confident in the practice they're registered to at the moment
