Rabbit agility courseBehaviour
Rabbit agility (or 'showjumping') is where rabbits are trained to jump hurdles and go up and down ramps and through tunnels. They wear a harness and lead and are led around courses by their owner or trainer.
Showjumping can be good exercise and mental stimulation for rabbits, and can even strengthen your bond with your pet through positive, reward-based training. It's not suitable for all rabbits, though, and we explain this below.
Show-jumping with your rabbit
You should only train your rabbit to start showjumping after carefully thinking about whether it's in your pet's best interests.
Rabbit jumping
If you decide to try showjumping with your rabbit, you'll need to make sure they're well looked after at all times.
Not all rabbits are suited to show-jumping
Many rabbits lack the build or athletic ability to take part, and unfit rabbits could injure themselves jumping.
They could also be too shy or un-socialised and find it stressful. Young rabbits can't take part until their bones and joints are well developed and strong.
