Would a Toy Poodle get along with my French Lop house rabbit?

A friend has asked me to look after their puppy Toy Poodle for a few weeks while they are on holiday. Will it get along okay with my house rabbit (a French Lop)? Thanks.|||I would suggest you get your friend to bring the puppy over to she how they get on. The rabbit could probably do more damage to the puppy as they have strong back legs. The puppy might want to play with the rabbit but if you keep a close eye on them it should be ok. I wouldn't leave them alone together.|||Depends on the temperament of the dog, Toy poodles can be a bit snappy, as a puppy it will be play full and a knock to the rabbits back could hurt it or kill it, also being mouthed playfully by the dog. I had a german shepherd and introduced a house rabbit and they go along very well, the rabbit loved the dog and followed him all over the house.



I have had other house rabbits and all my dogs have been brilliant, a husky with the instinct to kill mothered them and protected them.



I have only lost one rabbit due to the dog, they were playing and while I was watching, the rabbit turned sharply, the dog turned around and accidentally landed on the rabbits back and broke it. The difference is my dogs are large, where the Toy is tiny, but damage can still be done.



If the Lop starts to thump the ground, hiss and bite, introduce a time out. Just keep an eye on them and don't leave them alone. I think they should be fine together.|||If it's never been around anything like that I wouldn't trust it. Personally, I wouldn't leave them together without supervision. I know lots of dogs that love "their" bunnies, but I mean they've grown up with them and stuff. Better to not take a chance so I'd just leave bunny in a separate room while I wasn't around. My lab really likes my rabbits and lays with their outside cage and tries to lick them through the wire and what not but they don't like him haha...|||You will never know until you try it , nobody can tell it will or wont as it is down to temperament %26amp; how YOU raise the dog around the rabbit. I personally don't like poodles .|||my white rabbit saw the cow off the lawn once. i'd be more worried about the poodles safety
