Attributes
The American
sable's most unique attribute is its
distinct coloring, and the ruby red glow
in its eyes. Other notable attributes
are the very soft fur and the rounded
body.

The coat is
medium in length, fine, soft, and very
dense. American sables tend to shed in
patches, and they often take a long time
to shed, so they may require more
grooming than some breeds. A slicker
brush is good.

Breed
From Doug Blair, Massachusetts
This is a great breed for those who want a dual
purpose meet/show rabbit. It would also make a good
pet bunny as long as it's large size is taken into
account.
