All About Showing Rabbits

How To Register, Show, And Grand Holland Lop Rabbits

Basics for Showing Holland Lop Rabbits

If you want to show Holland lop rabbits, you are my kind of person! Showing is wonderful fun for children and adults alike. But it can be a little intimidating if you don't know what to expect. On this Showing Holland Lops page, you will learn about everything that happens at a rabbit show, from entering the show, to putting your rabbit on the table at the correct time, to following the progress through best in show and much more.

Registering Rabbits

Registering rabbits is nothing like registering puppies and kittens. Find out all about these differences here.

How to Grand Rabbits

Perhaps you've heard of rabbits being referred to as Grand Champion or having a "GC" designation before their name. Just how does a rabbit become a grand champion? Read about earning legs and making a Grand Champion.

My Show Schedule

I admit that this page is just for east coast rabbit exhibitors and those attending national shows (HL Nationals and ARBA convention). I show from Pennsylvania to Georgia, and from Ohio to North Carolina, including Tennessee. Plus, I attend the national shows. If you live in this general vicinity, check out my show schedule page, which includes the date, club, location, and judges for shows I will be attending (which is most of them!) Also included is a list of nearby motels so that you can make your reservations even before the show catalog comes out!

Traveling With Holland Lops

Traveling with Holland lops is not difficult, it just takes a little planning and extra care. I've made dozens of trips with rabbits, including overnight and weekend trips and national shows. Check out this page for tips to make your next trip even better.

Holland Lop Breeders' Index

Ever see a rabbitry prefix on a pedigree and have no idea who the breeder was, what the prefix stands for, the name of the rabbitry or what state the rabbit is from? Me, too! I've begun this index so that breeders will have an easy place to go to find out the missing information. Make sure your rabbitry is included in the breeders' index. If not, contact me and let me know.
