Breed Standard

The Holland Lop is one of the top five most popular breeds in the American Rabbit Breeders Association, a world-renown, full-service, 49 breed registry. Its compact size paired with a beautiful head, lopped ears, and endearing, sweet temper makes it a special addition to the rabbit world and the lives of many people.

History & Heritage

In 1949, Adriann de Crock of Tilburg, Holland, began developing the Holland Lop to produce a smaller lop-eared rabbit by mainly crossing French Lops and Netherland Dwarfs. The Holland Lop was later recognized in 1964 by the Netherland’s Governing Rabbit Council. Aleck Brook’s importation of stock from Holland led to their acceptance by ARBA in 1979.
