I used to help my wife groom our 2 dogs and we did buy the tools need for grooming. Till today, we still have the shaver and I thought of making good use of it. I have been putting this on hold for quite a long time. So today, I spent almost 2 hours grooming just one bunny. How did I decide who to give a shave? Well…
Thunder is having a major molt and I thought of helping him out. So I wrapped myself up and started cutting away!
On the other hand, it has proven that temperature does affect fertility in buck and by shaving him clean, I hope to experiment if it helps with fertility. I guess with a few ounces lighter, Thunder would be able to “perform” better with the does. LOL!
Let’s allow the photos to do all the talking. I was going for the lamb cut but somehow it didn’t turn out like how I expected.

BEFORE

The Slaughter Begins

Increase the count of "you-know-what" or be snipped!
The end product….

Lamb Cut turned out to be Lamb Chop as Susie puts it. Thunder looked like an old goat now...LOL!

Being few ounces lighter I am sure he'll be able to perform extremely well with the does. Just like the Energizer bunny!

I set out hoping to get Thunder looking clean shaved like this little Min Schnauzer we used to have
Grooming a rabbit is harder than I thought. And the amount of fur was a much as that of 4 little dogs. Will I do it again? Absolutely! It was fun and it should be nice if I could even things out!
LOL!!!lawak la the structure after shaving..plus the tukang shave also wearing an apron and balut muka like taliban d..maybe we can try this at home to truff and bugsy..hahaha..happy holiday bro!!!
Hehe.. ugly!!!! but so CUTE!!! .. are u sure the fur will grow back nicely? I trimmed some of Noobie’s fur between her hind legs but they didnt really grow back evenly…
June, I am a little bit cruel lately. What I have to say is that, I need his genes not his fur. LOL! He can stay bald but not sterile. LOL!
Holy smokes! Make sure you post results of this fertility experiment. Ashliegh just started cosmetology so we have the tools! She got a hold of my head earlier this month but we haven’t let her touch a rabbit with them yet!
LOL! I prefer fertility to fur. But I hope that’s what my does will think of Thunder. He’ll never grow back to his handsome self but that’s a risk I need to take to learn something out of it. LOL! And I know how weird HLs are so the does may think that he is not attractive…
holy cow!
OMG!!!!!! I din realize the damaging effect when u told me u shaved thunder! double thump for u!!! 😛
OMG~
ok it has been a couple of months now since you shaved Thunder. Did the fur grow back in, and if it did was it a thicker fur and better quality?
Karen, so far fur at his front end has grown but his back is pretty fair. LOL. I’ll update once everything grows back nicely. Love this buck!
