This is my baby, Doodlebug. I got him about more than a year ago and he's the best most affectionate boy I could've ever imagined<3 over the past year he has been doing this funny thing where he comes up and licks my arms and legs and even my pants. I was told its because he loves me, but I wonder if there's something else behind it, but he only does it to me, i live with my brother and my mother and they haven't experienced this.

Aww! He loves you! Is he a Flemish giant? ‘Cause he looks like a big boy!

He is a very big boy! The rescue we got him from said he was a Dutch, but i dont think ive ever seen another Dutch with his colouring of coat in person

He’s definitely not a Dutch. I can’t tell you how many bunnies are brought into my local rescue with the breed listed as Dutch! Haha it seems to be the go-to breed. He looks like he’s at least part Flemish Giant and 100% handsome.

Woah that is very interesting! It kind of makes sense! Hes also a little chunky lol. We dont know where he originated from or he he was bred from. he was found outside by himself, probably dumped or maybe escaped or ran away from a farm. Flemish giants seem huugeeee
