So on Friday I went and bought my wife and daughter a lop ear bunny for Valentines Day. They have been wanting one for about a year but I was not sure about this idea because all the rabbits I ever saw as pets lived in a cage and were about as interesting as a slug.

One of my other big concerns was I t worried about how my dog would act but I figured I would deal with that. She is a mini schnauzer which are commonly used to hunt rabbit. Well apparently she did not read the same books about mini schnauzers as I did because two days later it’s like I have to dogs. The rabbit follows around my dog everywhere. He is litter trained and acts like they are best friends. I had no idea a rabbit could be trained and live throughout the house just like a cat or dog. He walks on a harness and even plays fetch with a little ball made of hay. So far so good. I’m not sure but I think it’s safe to say the rabbit and my dog won’t be a problem.

Two days later its like i have to dogs. the rabbit follows around my dog everywhere. already is liter trained and acts like they are best friends. I had no idea a rabbit could be trained and live throughout the house just like a cat or dog. It is important to note that it takes alot of time but in this case the family that owned him before us did most of the work already. we just have to keep it up
 
Great pictures and that is too cool that they are adorable friends already. My aunt has a cute rabbit too but tends to have a problem letting him roam because he leaves little pellet poop everywhere...do you have that problem too??
 
Cute pic. My in-laws have a rabbit and they leave the cage door open. It has free run of the house. Just like a cat goes to the cage to do its business.
 
Where I come from Rabbits are good for one thing, and one thing only.....DINNNER!! lol seriously, google "Maltese Rabbit" and hit images and see what comes up

Cute little guy though
 
One word of advice rabbits can be very mean and have a very nasty bite. This knowledge comes from raising rabbits as a child for both food and shows.

no becasue he is litter trained.
 
absolutely amazing!! Only other thing to watch for is chewing on wires LOL. Otherwise what a great addition!!!


Yea. We rabbit proofed all the exposed wires and anything else we were worried about prior to picking him up. So far he seems to ignore them but we just wanted make sure he lived through the first time he decided to give it a try. We are real anal about bringing animals into the house. I like to research the heck out of them FIRST so that we are making a properly informed decision. These people that buy pets because they are "cute" or on impulse drive me crazy
 
My great aunt when she was alive had a rabbit,she had it in a diper...no joke...
