	Burgess Premier Small Animal Show 28th-29th January 2012. We will be in attendance not only with a team of Show Rabbits, but also with "The Internet Shop on Tour" For more info Please click here.
	With a strong team of ten Lionheads and two Mini Lionlops, we are aiming high this year. The first time the show has opened it's doors to the under five month rabbit, it looks to be an interesting couple of days.
The Lionheads at the moment are holding their coats, all we have to hope for now is that the weather holds and the snow is a distant memory of last years fun and games. No fun towing a trailer with snow on the ground, for some reason it does not seem to what to go in a straight line, if you can get it to move in the first place. We were much lighter coming home. I've just got to try and get the stock right this year. :)
For customers of the Internet show, we will once again be having a stand in the main hall, where you will be able to browse our extensive range of small animal goodies, if you are wanting to collect anything special from us please email me and i'll make sure it is on the list to take. We can be found opposite the "Bunny Jumping", this in itself if worth visiting the show, with the added bonus of the spectacle of approximately 750 Cavies, 50 Gerbils, 250 Hamsters, 300 Mice, 1,500 Rabbits and 125 Rats (or small furries as we call them) including a Discovery Area. The Burgess Premier Small Animal Show is an exciting and fun day out for all pet lovers and their families.We have a pair of tickets to give away to the customer that can answer the three questions below plus special show prices & offers on many products, like the Scratched & Newton bottle snugs, ideal for these cold winter days; at show price of just £5 each.

Christmas 2011

So what have we got planned this year at
Dee Millen Rabbit Accessories?
Of course the bunnies have already started writing their Christmas list, I believe some start as early as June, the house bunnies being the main culprits. We are in the middle of adding all the Christmas goodies to the site, and building all the Hampers that so many of you come back to us each year for. We have added a couple of new ones for 2011 as well as some great value packages.

Ruby-DoO	It with a sad heart that I have to inform every one that one of our House bunnies Ruby is no longer with us, after complication after her spay we had to say goodbye. Red and spot miss her terrible. The house seems very quiet without her. Young "Socks" who we add to the team in June, is trying to fill her shoes, with his disappearing upstairs every two minute and the climbing he loves to do just like her. Unfortunately we are having issues with bonding him to Red and Spot and since Ruby's very sudden leaving we have gone back several months. On a good note "Socks" is fine with the two younger Rabbits- Rimmer and Rubin who we are hoping to get in to the main group.

March 2011
So what have we been up to, I hear you asking yourself. Well with a shorten show schedule it means that I have a little bit more time on my hands to show the rabbits and just generally be at home to play and see too them all. The spring babies have started to be born, and I am running several of the babies born right at the beginning of the year on for show (photo's below). We have added another House bunny to the crew, Ruby DoO is another Thrianta like Red, mad as a hatter but great fun. Hopefully she will be living in with Spot and Red soon, Red just needs to learn that she is not going to steal Spot away from him, but will have two friends washing his ears instead of one.		Spot & Red

Ruby DoO. Like butter would not melt... ha ha	Red meets Ruby, they start with a kiss but ends with Red chasing Ruby away.	Prisoner at the Bar: Ruby wanting to come out. She is a great escape artist

6th March 2011 Saw us at the Medway Two star show, not a normal venue for me, but I wanted to get a couple of the bunnies out and use to the show world plus I was interested in the Judges thoughts on my Un-standardised Dutch Baby- a Black Otter coloured example. So who did the best? Well that was Young Sheba on the right, she won her class, took the CC from the Adult and finished 3rd Under 5 month rabbit in show. And my Baby Dutch----------"a raised eye brow "
A strong team of nine rabbits. All looking in the peak of condition.

Three Stunning Lionheads	Three Lops,two Dutch & a Netherland Dwarf

My show hopefuls for 2011.
The four Lionheads below are all from one litter, three Does and a Buck, I was only planning on keeping two but cannot really spilt them, so for now they are all staying.

Agouti Doe 11C00001	Agouti Doe 11C00002	Agouti Doe 11C00003	Agouti Buck, no ring yet

This is "Mange Cherry" a stunning Sooty fawn Mini Lion Lop Doe, daughter of "Mange Tout" and Bean, hopefully she is going to have a long winning show life ahead of her, she is a natural poser.


From only a litter of two the other baby, an Agouti buck is looking for a very understanding pet home indoors. He is special needs after an accident at five weeks old, which has left him with the use of only 3 legs, we are waiting to see if the damaged one will have to be removed.
Below: Mum & babies having a cuddle.		Below: Work this photo out!!!!
		The little Agouti, loves laying upside down, with his legs in the air, he has given me a fright a couple of times.
And the last two for the moment................

29th -30th January 2011 Our First show of the year, was the crufts of the Rabbit world. We were in attendance not only with the Internet Shop on Tour in the events square but with an eleven Strong Show Bunny Team, 5 Lionheads, 3 Mini Lion Lops and 3 Mini Rex from David's Stud

So how did we do? Not brilliantly with my bunnies going in to a heavy moult the week before it was a hunt for a team of Lionheads that were in coat and not over the very silly weight limit. So I ended up taking a Doe "Elight" ( that's her on the right busy nest building on her return from the show) that was in the middle of having a phantom pregnancy, which included a bumpy tummy full of milk, having to milk a Doe the morning of a five star show was a first for me. My best bunny a stunning Cinnamon went out over weight being just a 1/2 an ounce over :( So what can I say "But better luck next year"
	David didn't fair any better, with one of his team pulling a toe nail and ending up with a bloody foot and another going out just over the weight limit.
Jet-Setting Bunnies Hop to Yorkshire for the UK's First Rabbit Grand National Yorkshire was host to an unusual sporting spectacular, as the UK's first Rabbit Grand National held at the Yorkshire Event Centre in Harrogate, on the 29-30 January 2011. British bunnies, including competitors from across the region, had been in training to take on serious International competition from four of Sweden's finest jumpers, who flew in with their owners for the event. The rabbit jumping attraction took place at the Burgess Premier Small Animal Show, the 'Crufts'of the small animal world, which attracted more than 3,000 gerbils, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, rabbits and rats. The event was open to the public, a showcase trade area which housed a range of stalls selling craft, food and pet products, including our internet shop, as well as the new Showcase Square Activity Zone, where children's activities took place throughout the weekend. ( Photos & Text from the Burgess Premier Small Animal Show)
	Swedish competitors flew into Harrogate especially for the event, which saw champion bouncing bunny Cherie and her owner Magdalena Åhsblom take the top spot.
