American Fuzzy Lop

[MyRabbits]

A breeder friend of mine has a nice litter of American Fuzzy Lops and we will be getting one in September from her. I have never had a longhaired rabbit before and have been trying to learn a little more about proper grooming of a Fuzzy Lop. Any good pointers, anyone?

Brush once a day, and blow out once a week I used a blow dryer on my Angora's, set on cold. It worked well just to loosen up and shedding/shredded fluff in their coats. Work out snarls gently. I usually started with a fine tooth comb, went over the entire coat, then came back with a regular hairbrush. A close-bristled brush also works good for getting out loose hair.
If you brush frequently, you shouldn't have much of a tangle issue.

The only grooming I do now is clipping my doe. All my other bunnies are short haired

Thanks. That was helpful.
