Ohio Holland (?) Lop Needs Home

Herman is Buckeye HRS' newest rabbit needing a home. He is listed as a Holland Lop. Please take a look at Herman and all his friends available for adoption. Some of these bunnies (ie. Bonnie, Patty, Annie) have been in foster care for years and really need a forever home.

I think he looks more like a mini-lop.... but I'm not an expert.

He's really cute! I hope he gets a good home!

If you are seriouly interested, call Kristen D. Two Buckeye rabbits have been adopted out of state. Finn, a disabled bunny, went to the West Chester, NY area. Her adoptive parents came to my house in Ohio to meet Kristen and pick up Finn. We had a big bunny party and picnic. Because of surgeries, the adoption was months in the planning. I believe they e-mailed pictures if their bunny living arrangements to Kristen in advance. One of the articles on Finn http://www.ohare.org/images/harelines/v8n1.pdf

Fiona, formerly DQ, another HRS bunny was adopted by a friend in South Carolina. Emily flewup here to make arrangements. I believe she brought her other bunny with her at the time to meet Fiona. Later, we had a bunny car pool from northeast Ohio through Virginia to get Fiona to Columbia, SC.

It's not oftenKristen recommends sending a bunny to a home with children so this guy must really be a cuddle bug. All things are possible....

Don't despair - I've raised Hollands for about 20 years, so should have a little bit of a clue


His size is a good indicator (3 lbs.) He's also a tort. I'm from Ohio and a tort Mini Lop would be highly unusual, Hollands are extremely popular in Ohio. The ear also is "Hollandish", it's rolled (fault) and the crown's a little tight (I don't see many Minis with rolled ears).

Not all Hollands have the "show type" heads - I've seen many with heads like Herman's. He does have the full Holland cheeks and the eye to nose distance is shorter than a Mini. He just lacks width between the eyes (a fault in Hollands). This is what is giving his head more of a Mini appearance.

Our 3 bunnies are Holland Lops. My Vinny & my daughter's Precious are this Tort color and are just beautiful.

I'm not into showing bunnies, so I wouldn't know what the certain traits are, but I just think Herman is ADORABLE! How can you not "melt" when you look at his face?!:biggrin2:

That's where I look - the head. His looked more like a mini to me. Interesting points to look at tho. I'll have to do some practice with that LOL!

Thanks!

Sylvester is big beautiful rabbit but he can be feisty. That's my kind of rabbit.

Pumpkin is my favorite - what a sweetie.
