Bunny Show Jumping

[@grytlappar]

This may be the cutest thing in the WORLD. The great thing about it too is that the rabbits wouldn't do if if they didn't think it was fun! Also, I love that it's totally a thing in Scandinavia.

[@deko4848]

5/5 favourite, the lot! This is brilliant! Rabbits love playing and jumping, this is like a win-win situation for everyone! Fantastic stuff!

[@icelandicbunny]

After reading your comment, I checked cuteoverload's site and saw lots of comments about this video. And then Googled "Bunny Show Jumping" to find lots of sites linking to it. Glad so many people also enjoyed watching this...

[@orlie19]

wow that is the best thing I have seen on youtube in a while.

[@rewind64155]

Very good. I never knew bunnies could jump or be trained. I enjoyed this. Thank you.

[@poofiepoofievern]

I swear there are pet shows for every kind of animal! I love it!

[@Jumpinggiirl1234]

I just taught my bunny how to do this and she is so willing!! It's soo cute to watch them jump!!

[@TheOnlySilverUnicorn]

I once had a rabbit that would have LOVED doing this! She loved people, loved to play, loved to show off, and could jump like no tomorrow. If only I knew that the sport existed. I miss her! Maybe my next rabbit will be a good show jumping rabbit.

[@final_friday]

so cute :D however, do bunnies develop leg problems like dogs or horses might when they are jumped to much/often?

[@ImmortalSynn]

DUDE! I been jumpin' horses for decades... but never knew there was such a thing as showjumping for bunnies! How neat!

[@IceLavendar]

That is soooo cute! I am planning to get a rabbit too, but I would never dream of entering it in one of those competitions!

[@pixin0]

That video just made it on to my favourites list. That is definatly that most amazing video i've ever seen. My rabbit's kinda fast, and moults alot but thats about it. Her ears are about 1 1/2 inches long to and she about toaster-size. Shes a dwarf rabbit but you wouldnt be able to tell if you couldnt see her ears. XD

[@icelandicbunny]

Me neither, until a week ago. Apparently bunny show jumping has a big following in Sweden and smaller followings in Denmark and England - and the bunnies love it...

[@betsy538]

I have never seen something so cute! I love it!

[@icelandicbunny]

Yes, I completely agree that people should understand and appreciate the commitment and effort required if they want to keep a pet. And that bunnies require an enormous ongoing effort to keep them healthy and happy. However, you also seem to be saying that cute pet videos shouldn't be posted because they may prompt some people to get a pet. You therefore place huge responsibility on those who post cute pet videos, but it's not obvious to me whether that's correct. Needs some more thought...

[@CPkrysten]

this video rocks I cuold watch this all the time if i wanted.

[@walterthepony]

So cute! The jumps are so much taller than the bunnies!!

[@gummyandkali]

i love rabbits i have 3 and they are soooooo cute but thaay cant jump too high i have tried to train them but it didnt work too well do u no how to train them??

[@bugzbunny109]

the name of my dog was brownie. why do you have to bring back the memories

[@Meggie678]

OMG this is so cute!! I love how the guy @ 0:55 gets so excited because his rabbit cleared the jump.:)

[@smgruhlke]

Hmm, I wonder how long it took to train the bunnies to perform/jump on demand!! Amazing!

[@pixin0]

How bigs your dwarf rabbit..? Cos I have one thats massive...toaster size but with tiny ears...

[@Kiku91]

(comment continued from previous)...I should know (not saying my Midnight will jump on command) but you have to gain the creature's trust before you can get it to obey you. You continue to respect and care for your rabbit throughout the rest of its life.

[@Jump4eva]

This is amazing! these rabbit are so good at jumping and their so cute :) lol

[@applepielover7]

Its sooo adorable when they jump! so cute. they even wait the jump.

I absolutely love rabbits. I'll probably be a crazy bunny lady when I'm older.

[@bcgrote]

Wow, that is amazing! These buns are athletes, and they look to be enjoying themselves. Fun!

[@KairiHawkeye]

It's so cute when the bunny stopped for a second when she/he stumbled upon a wide obstacle.

[@hunterjmpr113]

cool! im thinking about getting a rabbit, a shelter rabit. wat breeds do best jumping? because the one i want is 9-10 pounds. would that be a problem? (its a english lop)? thanks

[@CheroNika]

wow, i didn't know that there was bunny shows like this. pretty cute ^w^

[@rose444100]

They look like they are enjoying it. My old rabbit would have loved this. ^-^

[@klya147]

I have a rabbit and i was wondering would training my rabbit 2 do dat make her more healthier?

[@akualtekefan]

wow who knew bunnies were doing show jumping! Very cute and very talented little bunnies.

[@tikidancer1]

this is so cute - is there bunny jumping in the US?

[@Epzilona]

Aw they're all SO CUTE! I have two rabbits, which are both Netherland Dwarf Rabbits :3

[@FF7Destiny]

My new rabbit would LOVE to do this, it's unbelievable how much she loves to leap on things, especially her big hut in her run and my back when I'm putting food in her bowl! She's nuts! I should try this sometime perhaps? c:

[@Amycakes7]

ROFL!!!! You're so right! I had to go back and watch it again. :-)

[@Quinalah]

I've heard of this sport. ^^ My rabbit, BunBun, can scale his cage wall with ease, so I have to have a roof on it at all times to prevent him from hurting himself. I was consittering getting into this sport, however, BunBun is a stubborn mule. xD I don't think he'd be able to tollerate training/harness/SCHEDULES, etc... He is a little diva. He really is. But, bless his heart, I love him so. ^^ Bless. =3 Those bunnies are so beautiful. (And cooperative!)

[@ceciley]

This is so cute and funny!

[@Karyn64]

That is classic! I would love to see that in person.

[@susiejay]

ahahaha amazing!! the grey n white one that knoks loads down is soo cute! thats so funny!

[@TheTickleMonster1]

Lol love this video, but i have one question? i have cut my rabbits nails too short and it has started to bleed, i have tried putting flour on it to ease the bleeding and it helped but if this happened again what shall i do to the nail? if anyone has an answer reply on my page plz!!!!!! ~Heidi

[@OutsideSoda]

I just love that the clicking noise that some of the trainers make is a very common noise that horse trainers & riders do. =D Made me especially giggle

[@HorsePower1242202]

Wow! I didnyt know there was *Rabbit Show Jumping* Thats so adorable! *Go bunny Go!*

[@laellagos]

That's amazing! Never seen that before. Never knew rabbits could jump that high either! :D Just hope these bunnies were treated well.

[@xCorrievarkiex]

wow that was amazin!!! thanks for postin x

[@Appylover33]

what was the highest/ widest jump?

[@BellesAHippie]

aaaaaaaaaaw! how to you train a rabbit to jump fences?? I grew up doing showjumping on horses(for 14 years)im 20 now and have two bunnies of my own, ones a dutch and ones a mini rex(both doe's) and neither of them would ever do this if thier lives depended on it! i want a bunny i can make jump fences... websites/books/advice are greatly appriciated! [Belle]

[@TwinkiesCanFly]

I almost peed my pants...And the best part is the people in the audience applauding like it was My Boy Bobby completing a championship course...Ahh, lmfao

[@TheNychthemeronThing]

YOU CAN DO IT, FLUFFLES! XD This is like, the cutest thing ever...XD

[@SonnyLees]

Wow how clever was that! Poor little bunny got tired, soooo cute! Hey did he get a refusal cause he didn't step backwards (assuming like horse showjumping?). Unreal!

[@MajorBuster]

that was probably the weirdest/coolest thing ive ever seen. I had no idea bunnies could do that!

[@rockclimbpaul]

OHHHH MY GOSH THIS IS SO CUTE!!!! THANKS TO THE AMAZING RACE THIS IS NOW MY FAVAORITE SPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bunnyfund]

That's adorable. I wish I had known about bunny agility when my Weber was still alive. I know he would have gotten a kick out of it.

[@Storm0404]

How on earth does anyone stop laughing long enough to judge these great events? This is great! I suppose there are some pigs out there who are going to say this is "cruel". I think it is great

[@dieblauereiterin]

LOL omg this is one of the funniest videos i've ever seen! how cute! i love some of the "refusals" i wish my horse could recover from a standstill like that! :D

[@Nocturnalux]

My bunny would run over the obstacles like a train. These bunnies are so well behaved, I love them.

[@Sarcasmhime]

If you've ever cared for rabbits you could tell they're not terrified. Terrified rabbits have their ears flat back and they hunker down to the floor to make themselves invisible. Those rabbits are just fine, especially the first one who sits up happily for his owner to pick him up after the jump!

[@Trefellin]

I can't belive I actually found that interesting. I had know clue people did this. Wow! Lets see some rabbit jumping wipeouts.

[@mcdreamylove93]

dude. that changed my life. bunnies kick ass. lol.

[@pisces2222]

why...is this...the cutest thing...in the world?!??!

[@MadHatter42]

@mdavis06 Oh yes, they have contests for nearly everything. Frog jumping, cricket spitting, ostrich riding, and so much more!

[@kittyfiend]

how do you get them to do that...

[@christielippettt]

wow ive never seen anything like it. i was looking at horse show jumping vids when this came up!! how can i train my bunny to do that... its a small breed. peter is a miniture dwarf lop :P 10wks old.

[@kayjmaz]

oh my word! how cool, i didnt know this even existed!

[@lindseyH101]

aww thats so cute! I had no idea this was a sport?? That's so cool =)

[@xevious2501]

How do you train a rabbit?

[@panthercap]

This is priceless! Cruel? What are you talking about? The bunnies are plainly ahving the time of their lives!

[@roxyqueen2]

hahaha, this is awesome!!! i'm gonna get some show jumps for my rabbit now :)

[@txhorselovingirl]

this is definitely more affordable than horse show jumping. i so want a rabbit now! cute!

[@vixitrixalina]

i have 2 bunnies- a 3 year old who i have retired due to her loosing interest (she usd to be great- jumper over 2ft8inches, and jumped a meter wide river! i have a new bunny though, who im training. shes only about 7 weeks, so i only learning to pop a coloured pole (under 6 inches). a future star though- she loves it!

[@Kiku91]

(continued from previous comment)...Rabbits also work through positive experience, so like some said if the rabbit did not want to jump they would not, that would mean they have not jumped that high enough times to not only trust experience, but their owner. If that was the case, those people would not be in the competion.

[@ConfusedKain]

Just wow! the distance and hight those bunnies where jumping was just, WOW o,o!

[@nohorsingaround]

That is so cool! I have rabbits but they aren't tamed yet! My Rabbits hate it when we pick them up!

[@boochy115]

That was the coolest thing I've seen today! Haha.

[@00gyb00]

omg thats so cool my rabbit is a netherland dwarf how do they jump that high?

[@soyinfinita]

that is such a cute concept! it makes me smile :p cute widdo bunnies

[@zeramino]

how do they train rabbits? i didnt even knew they did this. but thats pretty cool.

[@meeshnicolep]

OMG So Cute! I didn't know bunnies could jump so high either :)

[@maisteri]

Cute! I had no idea they do that with bunnies, but it makes sense...

[@kelath5555]

*Drops laptop, burns rubber on the way to Petco, buys a rabbit, goes for the blue ribbon*

[@rose444100]

@Bay424 I agree with you. The rabbit doesn't look distress or anything. My old rabbit would have loved doing that. He got alot of work jumping over my back. lol

[@squecky918]

how do they get the rabbits to jump?

[@theOlLineRebel]

OMG this is so cute! I love it!

[@colaza]

such cute bunnies! i want one now! but guess two hamsters is good enough. btw, good job jumping rabbits!

[@hunterjmpr113]

i started to teach my bunny how to jump... doing good so far!!! its best to start when they are young (mine is 3 months)

[@orangesandcupcakes]

lol this is soo cool and the bunnies are so awesome and they jump sooo big

[@riptideagility]

wow! I do dog agility but I didn't know it was possible to train rabbits the same thing. Too cool!

[@popcorn200213]

That is the most adorable thing ever. I want to get a rabbit and see if it can jump better than my horse!!!

[@jamarriage]

Very funny mine spends all his time relaxing and dreaming, he has the run of the house and goes a bit mental when he smells dill. More funny vids please!

[@PeichenPhilip]

Oh My GOD! They are so CUTE!!! I love rabbits~~~

[@d455ave]

They love jumping. We never trained them but they will jump for fun or just to get where they want to go. It's what they do.

[@samanthasmith69]

i love when they just stop and pop over it. soo cute :]

[@tjmac7]

theres a massive community of rabbit breeders, they have regular meets and publications (Just cos it aint sponsored by Nike!). Some would call it obsesive others would say passionate. Im interested to know what you think constitutes having a life? maybe they are breeding a new race of super rabbit.

[@zakuraRabbit]

That is adorable:) Just to mention to all of you who think this is cruel: I have been to SEVERAL contests, not once seen a bunny get hurt. "The rabbits can get injured" How exactly is that supposed to happen? Rabbits are built to jump. They're just as good jumpers as horses, if not better! (Judging by their sizes)

[@desilvano]

that's the cutest thing I've ever seen

[@kfitzy01]

aw cute ^_^ i've heard of rabbit competitions but i've never seen them before

[@zarmalar]

I had NO idea!!! if i had known this when i owned rabbits, that woulda been so much fun!

[@zakuraRabbit]

"The harnesses can hurt them" In Norway, there are strong regulations on the harness, to ensure the rabbits can't injure themselves on it:) These are specially designed for the buns, and doesn't hurt them. Rabbits under 3 months shouldn't wear harnesses because their skeletons aren't completely developed, and rabbits under 4 months aren't allowed into competitions.

[@pixin0]

Hey I found my post! I forgot that I posted this...I wonder if I'll get an email saying someone commented on my comment...
