To the person with the shy, black bunny: i think midnight would be a good name. If it is a boy, maybe Shy Guy!

The Dutch Rabbit is a good rabbit for small children. But only if you have never had them bred. When you do breed a female they tend to get vicious and short tempered. A male if bred often will remain sweet. If not bred often they tend to get violent. All around if kept alone in seperate cages they can be a perfect 4-H and all around great experience and pet for children.

I have a blue and white dutch bunny. He is the first pet I have had as an adult and my first bunny. He has a great disposition, is very playful, and loves to be petted. He is easy to care for and was easy to litterbox train. He pretty much trained himself. They are very smart animals. He loves to play. He runs all over the room and binkys high! He has a ball that he likes to roll around and he likes to hide in his little huts made out of cardboard boxes. He loves treats such as raisins, apples, carrots, broccoli, oranges, cilantro, mint, and parsley. He seems particularly fond of the mint and will pull it right out of your hand and gulp it down! : ) He does require alot of attention as they do get lonely but he is so worth it! He also gives bunny kisses which is a high honor. They will only groom some one they truly trust and love. He also knows that i always kiss his nose and has started to put his nose out for kisses! So cute. Bunnies are a great pet if you have the time for them but they also require alot of research. They are a fragile animal and need the proper care. But if you are considering one for a pet, a dutch is great to start out with. But be prepared. They can live up to around 10-15 years if properly cared for.

i have two little gdoe dutch rabbits, one agouti colored and one white with brown ears feet and tail. they may be small but their appetite is huge. i feed them willow prunings as they love to strip the bark and it is good for their teeth. i have a little black and white buck arriving soon so that i can start breeding. mine(unlike the other rabbits in the comments)do not eat bananas, their favourite snack is rock melon and red capsicums (or bell peppers for you americans). i must alternate between keeping them inside for the harsh new zealand winter and outside for the temperate summer. my favourite thing about them is watching them sleep sprawled out in a heap in the sun with my new zealand rabbit doe

I have two dutch rabbits. One I rescued from a friend how was going to give her to the human society because her dog was hurting it. I took her home and named her Kidny. Shortly after my other bunney White Fuge got her pregnant. Pretty soon I am going to have little bunnies!

I have a one year old brown and white dutch rabbit, "Mr Bun Buns", we adopted him from my sister-in-law who found out she was having a baby and was having a hard time with her pregnancy. He has been a complete joy (when he is not taking lumps out of the carpet). This is my first pet (apart from Goldfish) and he amazes me with his little personality. He loves nose rubbing which we do on a regular bases and I can hear him grinding his teeth with contentment!!! Also he just loves bananas!!!

We have a four year old chocolate Dutch named Shamokin. He is truly a marvelous pet - much like a puppy. He follows us around the house. He wakes us up each morning with rabbit kisses. He is a joy!
