What to do with a baby rabbit?

So I have a dog, his name is Boudreaux, he is better than any human I know.
Knowing his personality, he found a baby rabbit in the woods and was worried about it. So Bou did what Bou does and rescued him and brought him home in his mouth
So we have this tiny rabbit who is scared shitless, and Boudreaux who is so concerned he won't stop whining. He just wants to lay by the rabbit.
This thing is tiny, I think we should at least feed it, give it water, let it get old enough to let go but I'm not sure what a baby rabbit will eat? Bottle with regular milk? Syringe? Lettuce?
The rabbit
The tender hearted golden doodle, Boudreaux

call WLF and they will pick it up and bring it to a rehabber that will raise it until it can be released back in the wild
it will die otherwise, they need special care not just milk out your fridge

I clicked on this just to see how long it would take.

Second response. Not bad, but I am somehow still disappointed.

If a rabbit’s foot is lucky, a whole rabbit on your keychain has to be ten times as lucky.

We had a dog that would bring home baby rabbits every spring. Depending on how young they were, we’d either give them a bottle of milk, or give them fresh clover flowers to eat. Some died, many lived to adulthood. Get one of those hampster cage water bottles too.
Giving it to the authorities may just get it killed for all you know. Might not be worth the gas for them to drive it to a rehab facility.

Finest sauce piquant I ever had was rabbit; can only imagine a tender lil baby bunny being even better.
Either way, props to you and your hound for being compassionate.

You think they have the money to worry about a single baby rabbit?

baby rabbits are hard to raise. get it to a rehab person asap. you can probably google wild life rehab for your area and contact em directly. will be faster than calling WLF who frankly may not care.

Yes, rabbits are like the only animal that can stress themselves to death.

I would include sheep, young lambs especially.
