Josie's Jersies

Beautiful Jersey Wooly Rabbits

I have been loving my  Jersey Woolies since I was 6 years old (4 years now).  It is a lot of work to groom and condition Jersies, but I love them and I don't mind the extra care they require.

After starting with 4 very impressive rabbits from Fox Hill Farm, I have added Brian's, Serapic Farms and Cook's to our breeding program and have been very serious about my goals. 

I have a ton of fun at shows!  I work hard to keep my bunnies happy, healthy and well groomed.  I get up very early for the shows with no complaints.  I have learned a lot by listening to the judges, other exhibitors and also from some great friends I've met along the way.   I have some great memories being with my family on the road and overnight weekends at rabbit shows.

My Dad built this nice 10'x 20' shed to house my bunnies comfortably (unfortunately, I now have to share it with bikes, tools and a lawn mower!).  

We recently were challenged by our town zoning board and have been ordered to stop "practicing animal husbandry" so I have put all breedings on hold.  We are trying to find a place that we can do at least 1 or 2 breedings a year so I can continue raising and showing a few of my best bunnies.  It stinks to have to decide who stays and who goes, but it forces me to be serious about what I do and keeps me focussed on my goals. 

  

Another passion my family shares is dogs!  We are part of a great rescue organization called Boxer Angels Rescue.  We foster and help find homes for stray, abused and abandoned Boxers.  Here are 2 of our own  beautiful Boxers, Angie & Rosco.  Ben is our latest edition (not shown), that makes 3!  To see what this great organization is all about or to consider volunteering or adopting, please go to their website: http://boxersangelsrescue.com  




We now have three Boxers!  Meet Ben:
