ok i can see why ur rabbit doesn't like it but the i like the one u have better than the ones i have. the ones i have the rabit can get hurt in it more easily then ur rabbit. my rabbits have also slipped out or there wich ur rabbit can't. I woulg stick to what you have. just it'll will take a while for ur rabbit to get use to. but the halter part on it and let ur rabbit get use to it. don't attach the leash on just the halter part and let ur rabit be lose with it on. do this for about 5-10 minutes every other day till ur rabbit is use to it. once ur rabbit learns it's wont hurt it and it's ok u'll be able to take it for walks. i normally leave the rabbit in it's cage or let it lose in the house with it on but keep and eye on it so he doesn't try and hurt itself of bit it either.
If she still doesn't like that i would just let her lose in ur yard. most rabbit wont run away. may play games so u have to case them around but they wont leave. they are to scared. u may just take the whole cage and set it on teh grass with the rabbit in it so she can still eat the grass ad be in the sun. i have a special grazen cage that is only a wire top that u can put the rabbit in and then the rabbit and dig as well.

Your rabbit just has to get used to it... put it on her 3 times a day and let her hop around the house and then hen you think she is ready, guide her with the leash. When she is used to that, that's when you take her outside

I got one of those for my rabbit, and she HATED it! I don't use it anymore, but instead I let her out of her cage and let her run around outside. She stays in the yard, and comes when I call her, and even follows me. She has been gone for up to 3-4 days but always comes back when she is hungry or cold, or whatever.
I'm not afraid to let her out of her cage because we have no neighboring dogs, or anything that could hurt her, and my dog and the rabbit are friends.

My bunny was the exact same way. I got him the same leash/harnes and he hated it. i've tried many others as well and he hasn't liked any of them either. I also know of bunnies who don't mind leashes so I think it might just be the bunny. Don't worry though

when i used to have bunnies what i would do if take'em to a secluded area in a park and got them a play pen that you can also get at pet smart, this way you can even relax, read a good book, or whatever you wanna do and not have to worry about your bunny wondering off.
that vest thingy does look very unconfortable, i would never put one of those to a bunny
***bunnys are more layed back, you dont need to take them out to walks, just take her to the park when ever you can she'll love the sun, and eat grass, trust me***

I wouldn't worry. It may just be that the bunny needs to get used to it. I think they all would be about the same, and the one you have is as good as you'll get. Your bunny may be a little spooked by being outside. It will get used to that eventually too.
