Are dogs afraid of rabbits?

Dogs are not afraid of rabbits. Rabbits are naturally timid. As the lowest herbivore in the food chain, rabbits will maintain a high degree of vigilance towards all living creatures in the outside world. Although dogs are not afraid of rabbits, rabbits are still somewhat aggressive, so owners should be careful not to let dogs and rabbits alone.


Some breeds of hounds are specially designed to catch rabbits, so if an owner has a pet rabbit at home, be aware that the dog will chase the rabbit, and the consequences may be out of control.
