Does your bunny have trouble grooming herself? If she does then you need to make sure you brush out all of nasties from her fur including her bum. If not, then you should get used to a dirty bun!

Skye's feet were really dirty when I got her, it was the ink off the news paper that the rescue used in the bottom of the cages.

Presumably when you say she's filthy - its from being outside and playing - she does'nt have a dirty bottom particularly then :?: as this is something completely different and can be helped through diet unless there is an underlying medical problem which is preventing her from grooming herself.
If its play dirt - they a nice grooming spray is Agassi which is available from :www.bunnybazaar.co.uk - this spray is lovely and you can just brush it through their coats and its an insect repellant too.
they also do a shampoo as well which is really nice.
For more stubborn stains you could try some baby wipes with a little diluted bunny shampoo on :?:
Hope this helps :wink:
