Some tips to ensure both you and your rabbit enjoy jumping
Start of by just walking your rabbit in the harness (never pull your rabbit along!!)
Once he is used to the harness try walking him over some poles on the ground. You can then gradually start raising the poles.
Remember to take it all very slowly and that not all rabbits will enjoy it.
I personally would recommend that you practice for no more than 15 mins a day whilst getting your rabbit used to it. Once he is
happily hopping over jumps you can increase the time, always stop if the rabbit loses interest or looks tired.
