*** Golden Retriever Puppies Ready 5-18-08 *****

Please take a few minutes to look around and check out the pictures of my rabbits. Each breed has an intro page. I will go over the breed type, what to look for, and what I am working toward in each breed. Also, each rabbit has a short bio talking about the rabbit, where it may have come from, it's type, color, sex, and any other info I have to share. I try to keep my site as up to date as my free time allows, ha ha, sorry for any delay's.

A bit about me: Like many rabbit breeders I know, I started with a few back-yard pet's. My first rabbits were some kind of small, non-papered, lop eared rabbit, a blue buck (Dimples) and a broken blue-tort doe (Tippsy).
I began to attend 4-H, where I learned much about breeding and showing quality rabbits. I did quite well in the grade classes, but I wanted a bit more. As time passed I quickly learned about pure breed papered rabbits, and why they are better than non papered one's. It did not take me long to find the Holland Lop to be my favorite breed. Their small size and great personality makes them a wonderful pet, not to mention they are the cutest darn thing's to ever hop out of a nesting box. They come in quite a lot of color's, with many people working toward new one's all the time. They are were my favorite breed for a long time! I really enjoy all the challenges and enjoyment they bring. Be sure to check out my color project's under the Holland Lop page.

As time passed I soon wanted to add a new breed to my heard. I quickly became attracted to the English Lop. At one time I had been turned off by the large size, and long ear's these rabbits had. The closer I looked the more I fell in love. They are much more like small dog's than large rodent's. They love pet's on the head, and strokes down there big bodies. They really enjoy getting out and running in the back yard or "bunny barn". I began to collect a small heard of both the large beautiful English Lops and the smaller compact Holland Lops. Just about the time I started to get really evolved in showing & breeding rabbits, It was time for me to go to College. I was off to Phoenix, AZ to a private graphic design school. I knew I would be gone for most of the next 2-4 years, but what would happen to my bunnies.

My mom and sister said they would take over the showing and breeding of the rabbits for the time I would be gone. However, I had to cut way back before I left for college. It was either that or getting out totally and starting over. Thanks again mom and sis for all your help. I would not have the wonderful rabbits I breed today without your help.

After college I came back and jumped right back into raising rabbits. I had sold off almost all of my English Lop stock and had only about 30 Holland Lops to work with. I am working on improving the type of some of the more rare colors in the Holland Lops & English. I also have been adding to my heard of English Lop's and have some great blood lines to work with. A big thanks goes out to Russ and Janet Scott for there generosity and letting me work with them and their English.

It's going on 15 years
now that I have been rising rabbits.

I hope to have them for as long as I am able!

Thanks for visiting stopping in! ~ Geoff
