Holland Lops did not originate in their present form in nature.  They were bred in the 1960's by combining Netherland Dwarfs, French Lops, and Mini Lops.  They were accepted by the American Rabbit Breeders' Association in 1979.  Today Holland Lops are one of the most popular breeds with rabbit fanciers.

Part of the attractiveness of Holland Lops is the massive look in a small package.  Most of the points used to compare Holland Lops in rabbit shows focus on the body (32 out of 100) and the head, ear and crown (24 + 10 + 8=42 out of 100).  That just leaves 26 points for everything else, including fur, bone, color and condition.

The Holland Lop is a breed which exudes massiveness in a compact package. Weighing 3-4 pounds, Hollands are short coupled with a round head, flat face, wide body, full chest, and short lop ears that fall from a wrap-around crown. Their body-to-head ratio is 2 to 1, with the overall look reminiscent of a Bulldog. Coming in a variety of broken and solid colors, Hollands have a unique show pose of resting lightly on their front feet. Most importantly the Holland Lop has a sociable, comedic nature that is truly endearing.
