How to keep your guinea pig all shiny and clean
Yes Guinea Pigs can be bathed just like dogs. You need to keep your Guinea Pig clean, although they are clean animals to begin with.
It’s not necessary to bathe your Guinea Pig too often, every few months will do. If you do it frequently you can dry out their skin too much.
Here’s how you bath your Guinea Pig. Have a towel handy, a good bowl to bath him in, some gentle shampoo, say baby shampoo, and a hairdryer if it’s going to be cold.
You can use the hairdryer but only on the gentlest setting, and only after towel drying your guinea pig first. If the hairdryer is too hot for your skin it’s too hot for his.
Water warm but not hot. Don’t get his face wet, it’s not necessary.
