How delivery to Ohio works
- Tell us which bunny and whereabouts you are. The one you have your eye on, and your nearest town in Ohio.
- We price the run for your address. Quoted for where you actually live, and you get the figure before you commit to anything.
- We agree a date around the weather. Set by what the route looks like rather than by the calendar.
- Your bunny travels by road, climate controlled. Regular stops for water and a check, in a carrier with room to turn round. Never flown, never cargo.
- It is handed to you in person. Straight from the transporter's hands to yours, at your address.
- You hear from us on the way. Updates while it is happening, not a message once it is done.
Getting to Ohio: how long, and the drive if you prefer
By transport, from two days. Ohio is 2,100 to 2,300 miles out, 3 days on the road with the stops counted in. 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.
By your own car, about 36 to 40 hours. That is two to three days each way with overnight stops, and families do it every year. The advantage is simple: you see the litter, you pick the one that comes to you rather than the one that photographed best, and nobody else carries your bunny home. Collection from us is free.
Getting a Netherland Dwarf to Ohio
Ohio is 2,100 to 2,300 miles from us, 3 days on the road. The run is handled by a USDA certified pet transport service, in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops for water and a check. Your bunny goes by road the whole way: never flown, and never 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.

Raised indoors and handled daily. If one of these has gone by the time you write, 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.

- Mini Lops for sale in Ohio, 4.5 to 6.5 lb full grown
- French Lops for sale in Ohio, 10 lb and up full grown
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.
