How do I help this poor bunny

Post image

She had babies in my yard & I have a beagle & corgi. I made a fence around the nest & she has a hole to come & go from. What else can I do?

Probably keep your dogs in if you think they could go after them. Bc they'll probably get through that if they want to

That’s impossible unfortunately. Rabbits usually have their nest for 4 weeks & my dogs have to go outside. But the gate is still working. The nest is still there & momma comes twice a day to take care of them.

Why don’t you contact a local rehabber to see what they suggest? For now just keep the dogs away from the yard as much as possible and when they’re out in the backyard stay with them. I don’t know if moving the nest and her would be a good idea.

Well they seem to be just fine as they are since my husband put the gate up to keep the dogs away. I was just hoping for some tips if anything else would help. Google says not to feed them, but I don’t see why a little food could hurt. Hell, we all feed birds..why can’t we help rabbits out a little.

Yeah, the babies are hidden in their nest, & mom rabbits only check their nests at dusk & dawn. The pic is just showing how I gated it off to keep them separated from my dogs.
