Dexter has been doing this for months now... He didn't do it when I took him into the vet.. and I couldn't describe it well... he went on antibiotics, etc... but still sneezing... some nights are worse than other nights... but it kinda sounds like a sneeze... but it comes out of his mouth and sometimes he opens his mouth like he is having problems swallowing or something when he does it... anyone ever experience this???

sounds very much like a Respiratory infection. Just to be on the safe side I'd ask your Vet.

I lost a bearded dragon recently after brumation, that showed that kind of symtom and was gone shortly after.

Not to make you bummed, because I don't know, can't see Dexter, but does sound possible.

After all you have been through with that lil guy, I know you want to be sure.

Let us know, Hope your trip was FUN!

I think I should probably take him in again too... just gets expensive... but then again... I have sure been through a lot for him and hate to lose him... he is one cool dude. I wish I had a digital camera to take pics of him to show... but I don't... priorities, priorities... I wonder if anyone else has had this... I brought it up to Dr. Horton... but he didn't do it while there and she didn't really address it. I think I am going to go to the one that is 5 min from me... would be soooo much more convenient... he has a great reputation as well... but Dr. Horton has done such a great job with him I hate to leave... but her office just isn't convenient.. a ways away... anyhoo... I sure would like to get a gf for Dex... but just dont know if it is the time....

I would get him better first buddy, before I would think about the girl. But then after hes okay, by all means I'm sure it would perk him up, LOL

Let me know how ya make out, here or personal, take care.
