The tradeoffs, honestly

Rhinelanders need space and exercise. Their calico markings are hard to breed well, so many kits are not show quality.

Common questions

What colors are Rhinelanders?

White with black and orange markings on each side, like a calico. ARBA recognizes a black variety (black and orange) and a blue variety (blue and fawn).

What health checks should a Rhinelander have?

Check teeth for malocclusion. Ask about RHDV2 vaccination and E. cuniculi history.

Are Rhinelanders rare?

Yes, they are less common in the US, so good show stock may take time to find.
