 I am Kendall Knutzen and my rabbitry is Fuzzy Fufu Farms. My Lionhead herd is mostly chocolate, black and all tort varieties. I am proud of where I have gotten with my chocolate program. I’ve won lots of best in shows with my homegrown chocolates and at convention I got bov and bosv with them. A big goal I have right now is to get a best of breed at convention with one of my chocolates.

  Breanna Hoelzeman is a Youth Breeder from Central Arkansas. She has been showing Lionheads since Spring 2021. Breanna began her show stock with a GC doe from Mountain Ledge. And from there has added 3 does from Aspenleaf, 1 Autumn Breeze buck, and 8 more incredible rabbits from Mountain Ledge. She started showing her 1st group of homegrown kits in Ohio at Lionhead Nationals  and has traveled to 6 states showing her rabbits. Breanna dedicates her Best of Breed success to Rebekah Bourlier for her continual support and amazing knowledge of the lionhead breed. Breanna also appreciates the guidance from Suzanne Hansen, Beth Hughes and Kelly Liana. The time spent by these outstanding Open breeders strengthens the future for all upcoming lionhead breeders. Breanna's future plans include becoming a well-known Lionhead breeder and an official ARBA Judge where she can travel the US pursuing her love of Lionheads. Breanna's rabbit wins and available bloodlines can be found under FB name Diamond Field Rabbitry.

 My name is Harmony and I am a youth lionhead breeder out of Carrollton, Ohio. I started in 2017 but just started showing in more than 4h last year.  I am involved in 4h and help a lot of kids local to me. I work with tort, blue, and rew. Hopefully expanding to black soon.  

Ella And Judge Eric Stewart

 Olivia started with Lionheads in January of 2019, so she has really only been at it for one year. She has been purchasing the best stock she can and is starting to get some really nice rabbits from her breeding program. She has shown rabbits in 4H for a few years, but last year branched into ARBA shows, started a Lionhead breeding program, and has joined numerous rabbit clubs including NALRC, ARBA, MLRC, AND SDRBA. Being new to the Lionhead world, we have found other breeders to be very welcoming and helpful as she learns the ropes. We are located in Southeast South Dakota and can be followed on our Facebook page, Royal Stewart Rabbitry, or contacted at jmwarner1@msn.com. 

 My name is Jack and I am ten years old. I have been breeding and showing Lionheads since 2017.Last year was a great year for me! I won my first Best in Show with my homegrown rabbit a little jr buck named Peter Pan. It was so cool because my grandfather and my mentor Sarah Buckley was there to see it. I am focusing on breeding REW’s and Siamese Sables. One thing that I love about showing Lionheads is all the people I have met. I have some amazing mentors who have really helped me along the way. My rabbitry is called Jack Rabbits Rabbitry. 

Hi my name is Taylor and I started my interest in lionheads a few years ago. I started breeding in 2018 and honestly had no idea about colors or the standard of lionheads. In 2019, I got a Facebook account and became friends with some wonderful lionhead breeders. As the year went on, I learned more and more about the standard, purchased better stock, and attended my first show in September. I'm looking forward to what is to come in the barn and can't wait to go to more shows! I'm currently working on Torts, REWs, and might work on shaded this year too.

 Hi, my name is Alexa. I started to raise Lionheads June of 2018.  I have absolutely fallen in love with this breed. My first Lionhead is the reason why I started to raise and show this amazing breed. I came across raising rabbits, and then I started to do more and more research, and that is when I knew I wanted to get into improving this breed. I have been slowly improving my herd, over the past year. It takes a lot of work and effort, but in the end all is worth it.   Picture is of one of my home bred Black Does.  

 My name is Reagan and my rabbitry name is Royal Mane Rabbitry. I am located in Roanoke, IN. I have been showing and breeding Lionheads for 3 years. I love all varieties but my favorite is Siamese Sable.  

Hi!  Our names are Parker and Preston.  Our rabbitry name is BecCa's Bunnies Rabbitry.  We have been showing Lionheads for 6 years now.  We enjoy breeding and showing them.  We love watching the babies grow!  We also love going to the rabbit shows to be with all our bunny friends and also meeting new people.

 My name is Lauren, and I run Hop N Flop Farms Rabbitry. I haven’t been raising lionheads for long, only about a year, but I have been showing for about 3 years now. I enjoy everyday more and more and I love being able to represent this breed on the table. My favorite variety I would have to say, is my blacks. I also raise other breeds, but I focus on Lionheads. At first I was reluctant to get any wooled breed, I originally started out with Holland Lops. But I warmed up to the idea with these adorable little teddy bears, and now I have almost all of the dwarf wooled breeds! We are located in Lebanon Indiana but try to attend shows all over District 8.
