  Hi everyone, this is my beautiful shelter bunny Terris. She is around 3 years old, mostly white, save for her brown ears, her brown “eyeliner,” brown face/nose spots, a small stripe on her bum and her brown tail. The shelter workers told me she is a “dwarf mix”/”just a regular bunny” but I’m wondering if anyone here can help me determine further what she truly is. She has incredibly soft fur and is rather aggressive/antisocial, if that helps at all (though the shelter workers attribute that to her likely being bullied when she was young).
  
  Here are some photos of my beautiful girl! Even if you can’t identify her, enjoy these photos of my beautiful bun

  Oh my goodness… I’m sorry I cannot help in identifying the breed but she is SOOOOO ADORABLE!!! Beautiful rabbit. She definitely looks like half dwarf to me but I have no clue on the other mixed part. I love the stripe down her back. Haha that’s awesome.

  Broken patterns don’t mean much in the way of breed since they exist in lots of breeds. But I agree that her face and shape suggest a dwarf mix.

  I don’t know about the breed, but I wanted to say that Terris is a beautiful bunny! Thanks for adopting her from a shelter.

  Possibly dwarf and English spot? Or maybe a “Heinz 57”, as we used to describe some of our mixed kitties?
  Very pretty girl.

  Her face shape and eye suggest a dwarf breed, and the color of ears and the partial stripe down her back makes me think rhinelander. She probably has some rhinelander in her.
  
  But man is she a cutie pie!

  Possibly a mini Rex or dwarf. She is probably a dwarf because of those adorable short ears
  That is a beautiful bunny btw

  Thanks for all the help and compliments! I’ll be sure to pass them along to Terris
  
  Would she still be a dwarf despite being quite big? Also, I don’t think she is a rex because of the fur, but who knows. Thanks everybody

  How big is quite big? A dwarf mix may not have the dwarfism gene. They typically aren’t considered large though.
