Is there a difference between dwarf lops and holland lops?

Mini Lops didn't get their name from "mini" ears at all. At the time that the breed was being created, the Holland Lop was not yet a breed in the US. Bob Herschbach, the Mini Lops' created, called them Mini Lops because they were a "mini" version of the French Lop (which they still are). Ultimately, both the Mini Lop and Holland Lop were accepted as breeds at the same time by the American Rabbit Breeders Association in 1980. YES! dont let names confuse you. holland lops are much smaller than mini lops! mini lops got their name from their "mini" ears!
