8 Dwarf Lop Rabbits for sale in Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire

The Dwarf Lop, also known as the Mini Lop or Holland Lop in some regions, originates from selective breeding in the Netherlands and Germany during the 1970s. This charming rabbit is small and compact, weighing around 1.5 to 1.6 kg, with a distinctive cobby body and notable lopped ears that hang close to its cheeks. Their dense, soft fur comes in various colours and patterns, making them visually appealing pets. Renowned for their friendly and affectionate temperament, the Dwarf Lop is calm and intelligent, making it suitable for families and gentle children who can handle them carefully due to their delicate bones. They require a spacious living environment despite their size, with ample exercise and a diet rich in hay for dental health. Regular grooming is essential, particularly during molting seasons, alongside attentive ear care to prevent infections from their characteristic floppy ears. Ideal as loving companions, Dwarf Lop rabbits thrive when given plenty of enrichment and interaction, making them a delightful choice for UK pet owners seeking a sociable and approachable breed.

FAQs

Are dwarf lop rabbits good pets?

Yes, dwarf lop rabbits are excellent pets due to their friendly and gentle temperament, making them suitable for families. They are relatively low maintenance and typically live around 9 to 10 years, offering many years of companionship.

How big do dwarf lop rabbits get?

Dwarf lop rabbits generally weigh up to about 2.5 kg (approximately 5.5 pounds), making them a medium-sized rabbit breed with a compact and sturdy build.

What is the difference between a Mini Lop and a dwarf lop?

The main difference between Mini Lops and dwarf lops is their size; dwarf lops are larger, weighing up to 2.5 kg, while Mini Lops are smaller, usually weighing around 1.6 kg (3.5 pounds). Both have distinctive drooping ears and soft dense coats, but dwarf lops tend to have a slightly more robust body shape.

What are the disadvantages of Mini Lop rabbits?

Mini Lop rabbits, although friendly and affectionate, require daily mental and physical stimulation to prevent behavioural problems such as biting or kicking. They also need social interaction and enough space to avoid territorial disputes, and without proper bunny-proofing, they may cause damage indoors by chewing on objects like electrical cords.
