That's my bunny kiss. I do realise I'm not quite kissing the bunny, instead, I'm kissing my hair (which was amazingly straight that day)...But it's a cute picture anyway. :P That's the most recent picture I have of just me.

I stink at posing my rabbits and evaluating their type (and taking pictures..). Any suggestions or advice (on pictures & type)? I've read articles and the standard and all on type.. but, I just don't get it. I can recite word for word most of the Dutch standard but I can't apply it to rabbits...

Pam (or somebody), how do you go about proving they got their legs? Do I need a paper or something for proof that the judge signs? Would a rabbit show at a county fair count? Or does the show have to be sanctioned? (I know it is not an ARBA sanctioned show..) Thanks!

Now that's one blingin' bunny. :cool:

I was looking around for breeders in Alaska (just because I'm curious).. andI found a humane society with a cute little Dutch female.. :D http://www.rabbitadoption.org/asap.html Just had to show that to you.. I couldn't find any Dutch breeders in Alaska.
