Afraid of them!? Brownie and Mallow are each less than 5 lbs (OK, Mallow might be as much as 6 ... that's only about 2.5 kg each) ... !
That's funny ... if we've been petting the buns and then go outside and meet any of our neighbors' dogs, the dogs are always fascinated by the smell of the rabbits on our hands.
The bunnies used to be terrified of even the smell of dogs, but the woman who's been taking care of them when we're away has several dogs - including one that's a registered therapy dog and is very careful to make sure the other dogs don't come near the bunnies - so now they're used to it.
