SOP = Standard of Perfection.
These two terms are used throughout the entire blog. Be sure to leave a comment down below or email me if you found any of this confusing and would like more clarification!
The Standard of Perfection can be really confusing sometimes, and hard to understand. For Holland Lops, the HLRSC guidebook makes understanding what the Standard is talking about a little bit easier, with pictures and explanations from many different authors.
To receive this helpful guidebook, all you have to do is join the HLRSC. The membership fee is very small, and it's totally worth it for the guidebook and quarterly Hollander magazine.
What are the benefits of owning the HLRSC guidebook?
If you get confused by the language in the SOP or want to learn more about what a great Holland Lop really looks like, this guidebook is for you. But it's more than just a guidebook on HL type. It includes photos of different aspects of Holland Lop type, as well as articles on all things related to breeding, culling, starting out with Hollands, color genetics, health and much more.

Okay, okay . . . but how much is it?
All you have to do to get this guidebook is join the HLRSC. For youths, the club membership is $17 for one year for a new member. For adults, the membership is $20 for one year for a new member. This fee is totally worth the guidebook and the quarterly Hollander magazine.
