Adult Netherland Dwarfs

Our rabbits are bred to the standard of perfection set forth by ARBA. We strive for genetic excellence and health as well fantastic temperament. They are sweet natured, gentle, and quiet pets who have big personalities when given the space and time to express themselves.

We expect our pet adopters to do their research before contacting us. To learn about Netherland Dwarf pet care, please see our Rabbit Care page. And to learn more about Netherland Dwarfs as a breed, view our articles about Netherland Dwarfs and their temperament. There are rabbit help and advice groups on Facebook as well as many YouTube videos about what to expect from a pet rabbit. These are great places to do further research. Once you enter the adoption process, we will go above and beyond to find you the perfect companion, so please be considerate of our time and attention.

When you are ready to adopt a pet, please fill out an Adoption Application Form and Robin or Lisa will contact you if approved to set up an appointment time. To reserve a rabbit you will be required to pay in full through an electronic form of payment.

BREEDERS may contact us directly to chat about your needs and what genetics you are looking for.

PICK UP and TRANSPORT OPTIONS

LOCAL PICK UP is available once you are approved for adoption. We have many clients who drive in from the surrounding states. In many instances you may take home your bunny the day you meet them (check for a “ready to go home” date on bunnies under 8 weeks old.)

PRIVATE TRANSPORT and DELIVERY is available through third party transporters. A quick google search will bring up many options. You will be responsible for choosing a transporter you trust and securing your own transportation. We are happy to arrange pick up times with them. We have a great relationship with Mabel of LC Animal Transport, her number is 347-819-4372. You can reach out to her for timing and transport rates.

DOMESTIC AIRLINE TRANSPORT is also possible through American PetEmbark. You can expect to pay approximately $550-750 total depending on how far the pet is going and miscellaneous fees associated with your pet flying, such as a proper crate for the flight ($60-80) and a required health certificate ($100) within 10 days of departure. We have sent many rabbits as far as California and Washington and feel that American Airlines is a safe and trustworthy option for receiving your new pet.

Serafina | Chinchilla Female- $300

  • Sex: Female

    Born: 1/20/2022

    Breed: Netherland Dwarf

    Variety: Chinchilla

    Size:

  • Serafina is adventurous and strong willed. She knows what she wants and she is not afraid to tell you with a few thumps. She definitely sits on the sassy end of the scale of bunny temperament, but is sweet when you get to know her. She is easily handled and has never been aggressive.

    Her favorite foods are lettuce, spinach, celery, cucumbers, sprouts, clover, oregano, thyme, carrot tops, carrots, and anything green. What I am trying to say is this is a lady who loves her food!! With that being said, she is currently on a bit of a diet and she exercises almost every day.

    Serafina would do well in a variety of home situations. It would be lovely for her to have ample room for exercise time and be able to bond to another rabbit.

  • Serafina is not fixed so consider the cost of a spay if you are hoping to bring her home with other rabbits.

Each rabbit is fed a super premium organic diet supplemented with fresh greens and herbs from our regenerative eco-gardens. We import fresh Timothy hay from organic farmers in the US and blend it with locally grown organic orchard grass. We also treat our rabbits to botanical hay blends, immune boosting forages, and dried fruit treats we make in house.

Our promise is to provide you with the healthiest rabbit possible. There are currently no rabbit vaccines required for the State of North Carolina but it is worth looking into the virus RHDV2 if you will be travelling to other areas with your rabbit or live in a state with an outbreak.

Guarantee

Although we do our best to choose bunnies with excellent health and temperament, we do realize that we cannot predict the future and issues may arise. If this were to happen we will work with you to solve the problem and will provide you with a replacement companion, if it should come to that. We do not issue refunds, but if at any point you are not able to care for your rabbit anymore, we will gladly take them back (cage required, as we do not often have empty cages.)
