Bonny is a ...what breed?

[Sealy]

Bonny is 1 1/2 rs old, weighs about 7 -8 lbs ( she's a bit overweight I think) and I just can't decide what she is. her fur is velvety , she has he English Spot striping/patches .. I dunno.. I was thinking, maybe a NZ/Rex cross?
My mom had gotten her from a pet store when she was about 8 wks old...the pet store lady said she was a lop...lol um no.
Here she is though:

Thanks!

By her description she looks like a rex . Possiblly a Cinnamon Dalmatian . Or could be a broken fawn which basically means it is white with collored spots

She looks like she's probably a Mini Rex that didn't get the dwarfing gene, allowing her to go over the 4 pound size. It's not that uncommon in the breed. Though, she is a bit chubby, lol!!

Her color is most likely broken fawn- but it's a little hard to tell exactly in these pictures.

She's a pretty girl!

Most likely is it a Rex/New Zealand cross. I have one at home and she looks EXACTLY like her. Cute.

She looks too me like a chubby mini rex that didn't get the dwarfing gene.

Color is either broken red or broken castor-hard to tell from the pictures.

lol we have definetly established she is chubby.. she came to me that way.
I'm working on that. But besides chubby, she is just big built. I thought Mini rex's were..well... mini? She is not built mini sized ( without the chubby).
Thanks for the input

"Mini's" (Mini Lop, Mini Rex, Mini Satin) are small breeds, but are not dwarf size.

I have mini rex brood does that could rival your doe for size.

I weighed one of them tonight and she weighs 6 lbs and has

a litter of six. Five of them are small and one is like her. It all

depends on if they get the dwarfing gene.

At that weight she could be a Standard Rex. She looks a lot like one, and Standards often get folds of loose skin, usually a dewlap and some around the front legs, and that can make them look chubby. If she is a Standard I wouldn't say she looks all that overweight, that's fairly normal for a Standard Rex doe.

She's very pretty!

We;re from the Fattest State in the US

http://calorielab.com/news/2006/08/12/fattest-states-2006/ I'm chubby, the dog is chubby, even our Governor is chubby.. you expect Bonny to be a slim Bunny? O_O

Seriously though, pre me, she was stuck in her too litte for her cage, free Alfalfa pellet fed, no hay, no excersize. She is on 16% Timothy Hay pellets, free fed Timothy hay & let out for excersize a few times a day.. it's getting better.
