I'm sorry to hear Cooper isn't feeling well. If he is having recurrent infections there may be a source of the problem in his nasal passages. This could be a growth, a foreign body, or an infected tooth. I recommend discussing a sedated oral exam and possible skull radiographs with your vet. They may need to refer you for an endoscopy into his upper airways. Good luck and kisses to Cooper!
