The rabbit world has lost an outstanding judge, breeder and friend - Brian Hartzell.
You could always count on Brian to give you an honest critique of your rabbit, a sly grin,
and a big smile. Like so many others have commented, I too learned a lot from him and went to
shows hoping that he would be the one judging the Hollands.

Did you purchase a 4H rabbit from me?
If you purchased a rabbit from me to show in your local 4H fair, please send me an email and
let me know how you do at your fair. Send me a picture too, if you can. I would
love to hear how you did. I know the fairs are a ways out yet, but just keep this in the back of
your mind! I have several bunnies in St. Joseph, Elkhart Counties, and a couple of counties in
Ohio, Michigan and Illinois.
