Netherland Dwarf Rabbits for Sale in Ohio
Netherland Dwarfs, 1.5 to 2.5 lb full grown, the smallest rabbit we raise, raised indoors in Bakersfield, California and driven to Ohio by us. $250 for bucks and does alike.
We are in Bakersfield, California, not in Ohio, and we would rather say so than build a page pretending we are down the road from you. What we do is drive to you: 3 days to Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati or anywhere smaller, arranged by us rather than handed to a courier. $250 for bucks and does alike.
Getting a Netherland Dwarf to Ohio
Ohio is 2,100 to 2,300 miles from us, 3 days on the road. We drive it ourselves in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops. No depot, no holding facility, no handover between carriers, and never flown or shipped as cargo.
What this breed's size means for the journey. A Netherland Dwarf is the easiest of the four to move. It travels in a small carrier, it eats little on the road, and it copes with a long journey better than the heavier breeds because there is simply less animal to keep cool.
Ohio weather, and this breed
Ohio winters bring lake-effect snow across the north of the state. We monitor the forecast for winter runs and reschedule rather than travel through it.
Being small, a Netherland Dwarf sheds heat more efficiently than a Mini Lop, which makes summer travel less fraught. The short face is the offsetting factor though, so we still run the southern legs at night.
Netherland Dwarfs ready for Ohio now
Raised indoors and handled daily. If this one has gone, ask and we will tell you honestly what is coming rather than take a deposit against a maybe.
Keeping a Netherland Dwarf in the Midwest
A Netherland Dwarf handles Midwest cold well for its size, provided the water does not freeze and the pen is out of the draught. The bigger regional point is that this is a bright, reactive breed and a long indoor winter needs enrichment. A bored Dwarf is a destructive one, and five months is a long time.
Size. 1.5 to 2.5 lb full grown, the smallest rabbit we raise. Care. The short face means dental alignment is worth watching properly: check the front teeth monthly and get any misalignment seen early. Otherwise low maintenance, with a short coat that needs almost nothing.
What it gets mistaken for. Confused with a young Holland Lop, because a Holland at eight weeks is about the adult size of a Netherland Dwarf. The ears settle it: Dwarfs stand upright, Hollands lop. Everything about the Netherland Dwarf.

What a Netherland Dwarf actually costs in the first year
The rabbit is the cheapest part. Housing, a spay or neuter, hay by the bale, pellets and an annual vet visit run well past the purchase price, and Ohio buyers should add the delivery on top of that.
