Might be a bit wormy some rabbits can be, check for worms when you gut it, if there are worms then cook it and pull the meat from the bone before giving it him. Dont feed cooked bones. Raw bones are ok.

go on youtube and put in dressing a rabbit

Or go to the River Cottage website, there are good instructions with photos on there too. I've been skinning mine too since someone on here mentioned that the skin can block the dog's gut.

 

And if you're worried about parasites you can freeze it and then defrost it and feed it raw in a couple of weeks.
