Sleek, red-chestnut bodies and long limbs give the Belgian Hare its hare-like silhouette. Bred in 18th-century Belgium, this six- to nine-pound rabbit earned the title “poor man’s racehorse.” Bright and trainable, it loves puzzles, speed bursts, and roomy enclosures. Weekly brushing is plenty; patient handling builds trust with this lively companion.
