What breed?

[FelipesMommy]

I posted some pics a couple months ago when I first got Felipe and people seemed to think he was a Himalayan Netherland Dwarf (I know he has that coloring, not sure if they thought he was a mix). I'm posting some new pics to see if that opinion is still there.

He's about 7 months, and weighs 2 pounds.

I think he may be a netherland dwarf mix.

I'm gonna go with pet quality himalayan netherland dwarf. 2lbs is pretty small (and he's old enough that he's mostly full grown) so that's why I'm assuming nethie rather than a mix.

I'm going to say that he's a netherland dwarf mix, rather than purebred. From the pictures you provided, his head, body, and ears all look far too long compared to the body of a true netherland dwarf. However his weight certainly suggests that he has the dwarf gene, so I'm suggesting that he is most certainly a mix.

Yeah- he can't be a purebred netherland dwarf. The ears are too big and long, and face doesn't seem pure nethie.

Def some dwarf in him tho.

Gorgeous bun btw

Thanks all! I figured he wasn't purebred since I thought he looked too long as well. I am glad to hear he is most likely a dwarf though, I was hoping he would not get much bigger. Thanks again!

If he's that weight at 7 months, I doubt he'll grow much more. My holland, for example, only grew 0.2lbs between 7 months and 1 year.
