Mini Lop (US) - Dwarf Lop (UK)

Somewhat confusingly, the Mini Lop (or Dwarf Lop, as it's known in the UK) isn't the smallest of the Lop breeds. With an adult weight of 4.5-6.5 pounds, it's larger than the Holland Lop (Miniature Lop in the UK) and American Fuzzy Lop, which have maximum weights of 4 pounds.

Mini Lops come in many colors, including solid, agouti, shaded and broken varieties.
