Nethie or Polish?

[Kitty88]

So I will most likely be getting a new rescue dwarf in the next week or so. I've been gathering supplies and making all my preparations and I think I'm as close to ready as I'm gonna get. I'm going to get him/her fixed and then attempt to bond them to Kashi, as they're going to be living side by side and getting used to eachother for a few months. (I already have a girl name picked out, but NO ONE IS GETTING A DEFINITIVE NAME UNTIL THEY'VE BEEN CHECKED AND CHECKED AGAIN BY A VET. I'm not getting surprised like THAT again. The odds of getting two bilaterally cryptorchid males are slim to none, right?)

The funny thing is that I actually pretended to consider taking him/her in. Within ten minutes of my friend Vinny emailing me about it and sending me a picture, I had addeda new food bowl to my Drs. Foster and Smith. But in my head, I was still mulling it over, you know? LOL.

So now, not that it matters, I'm really wondering which breed the little guy/gal is. I only have one kinda dark picture, so this is gonna be tough. Also, do dwarfs tend to have smaller dewlaps or something? I don't think I've seen any pictures of prominent Nethie or Polish dewlaps.

Definitely a Nethie. Polish don't come in that color.

 

[Kitty88]

Ugh. I didn't even think about checking out colors. *facepalm*

The weird thing is, the guy that contacted my friend about it said the bunny was gray. And its pretty obviously agouti in the picture.

 

[lelanatty]

It's alright. People who don't know their colors often times have a hard time describing them, especially agoutis. I've even heard them called brown.

 

[Kitty88]

I've never even had a dwarf before. It's going to be quite an adjustment after handling my 8 pound goofus everyday. Lol!

 

[lelanatty]

Lol yeah they are very different, full of personality though

 

[Kitty88]

I can't wait! It's going to be such a new experience. XD my friend has a lionhead and everytime I hold him I'm shocked at how tiny he is, and this little guy is at least a pound and a half lighter!

 

[lelanatty]

Best of luck with the little guy!

Cute Bunny, they are going to make a Lovely Couple.

I can hardly wait to see them together.
