Only a diehard rabbit person would fit a rabbit show and a prom on the same day.


Danielle wants to go to the rabbit show, also wants to go to her prom. She went to the Big Valley RA show then in the late afternoon changed into her prom dress and rushed to her prom.

Judy And Buckshot








Buckshot wins the broken senior buck class and the honor of the best non-tort Holland Lop.














Judy is very proud of Buckshot.













Buckshot loves his mama Judy.










Tort is the most popular and common color in Holland Lop. Though there are solid and broken varieties, the winners are usually the solid tort and the broken tort.


In Monterey, Judy E. has a broken black buck, Buckshot, who won the broken senior buck class, over all the broken tort bucks. It speaks for Buckshot's quality; he also won the honor of the "Best Non-Tort Holland Lop" on that day.

Boo Visits California




Last time we saw Boo, he and mama Tomalene and sissy Vanessa were in Myrtle Point, Oregon in March. They came to Monterey for the Mini Lop National in April.






Boo is not too thrilled to be in the rabbit shows for two days plus the long 10+ hour drive.






Betty says, "May I hold Boo?"










Betty and Boo are practicing ballroom dancing; two heads have to be as far apart as possible!





Boo is happier to be in mama's arms.

Don't Get Our Secretary Mad!






With three all breed shows, two national breed shows and over ten specialty shows going on in Monterey, our able secretary Rita is buried in paper work.






Rita says, "Who judged this breed? It's not marked; I am all confused!"








Dr. Steve R. says, "It's me, don't get mad!" Both are happy after the clarification.
