Blue Dutch

As Leah's favourite colour there will always be a place for chocolates here but usually on a small scale only.

Leah introduced me to rabbit breeding and showing 7 years ago now. I have bred and exhibited all colours of Dutch during this time, but only 1 or 2 at a time. I am currently breeding blues and the occasional black and am beginning to enjoy some big wins with own bred rabbits. I won my first Best in Show with an own bred black Dutch in 2006 at the GLDRC ASS.

Josh is 4 years old and loves to cuddle our rabbits and help to groom them (and his many Dutch rabbit cuddly toys) ready for shows then to stand and steward them on the show tables. He has already attended several shows up and down the country and has a clear interest in rabbits with Dutch markings. We have joined him to some Area Dutch clubs, as a junior member, and have given him a pet blue Dutch buck called Thomas to show with.

During my 16 years in the BRC I have been involved in all aspects of the Fancy, from breeding and exhibiting to Judging and running local and Area Specialist clubs. I have kept many different breeds from all 4 sections over the years, but I now just keep a few Dutch in mostly brown-grey, yellow and chocolate and now breed on a small scale only. Richard and I are currently joint secretaries of the Greater London Dutch Rabbit Club.

Charley is the newest addition to our family born on Christmas Day 2007. At about 18 months old she suddenly developed an interest in rabbits and now asks to go down our shed almost every day. We recently acquired a 2 year old tortoiseshell buck that had been destined for a rescue centre. Charley fell in love with him straight away so Murdoch is now her pet.
