Which breed is referred to by the abbreviation "LH"?

The breed referred to by the abbreviation "LH" is the Lionhead rabbit. This breed is distinguished by its unique mane of fur that encircles the head, resembling a lion's mane, which contributes to its name. Lionhead rabbits also have a compact body and a friendly demeanor, making them popular among pet owners. They were developed relatively recently, gaining recognition in the 1990s and quickly becoming favorites in various rabbit shows and competitions. Understanding this breed's characteristics can help you identify them, both in a fair setting and when looking to care for or adopt a pet rabbit.

The other breeds do not correspond with the abbreviation "LH." Commercial rabbits typically refer to a category based on body type and purpose rather than a specific breed, while the Netherland Dwarf is known for its small stature and sweet personality. The Holland Lop, while having a similar abbreviation might be confused with Lionhead, is a distinct breed that features lopped ears and a very different appearance.
