About Hollands...

Are you looking for a rabbit? Maybe the Holland Lop is the right breed for you! Then again, maybe not! This is what we know about the Holland Lop...

Personality
The Holland Lop is an extremely popular pet and show animal. They are gentle creatures and make great pets. They are definitely one of the cutest pets you can get! Hollands are sweet and love everybody! The HLRSC has adopted a fitting slogan for the Holland, "The Hallmark Breed."
