How Do You Take Care Of A Netherland Dwarf Rabbit?
The Netherland dwarf rabbit is, as its name suggests, a small breed. They weigh on average two pounds. There are over 35 varieties of the breed. It was originally a European rabbit and is known in Europe as the European Pole. They are friendly rabbits; however, when they reach breeding age they can become a bit aggressive. This can be curbed by breeding or having your rabbit fixed. They are often bred for show, but they make great pets as well. Be prepared. Know about the breed before you purchase one. Read books and talk to breeders before bringing one home. It is important to understand basic care and health issues before hand. Choose a reputable breeder or adopt one from a shelter or rescue. Be gentle. Your rabbit will respond well to you if you are soft with it. This will make handling easier in the future because the rabbit will know what to expect. Provide your rabbit with a home that gives it plenty of room to run. It will need a cage that is at least 30 inches by 30 inches by 1
