No but they can eat crackers. or green veggies
Fruits and Vegetables Guinea Pigs Can Eat
- Red Pepper (or green/yellow pepper. Red has the highest vitamin C concentration)
- Carrots - both the root and the green tops are perfectly safe for your guinea pig.
- Apples - just make sure they don't have any seeds.
- Oranges
- Leafy greens like red lettuce, romaine, or parsley (be sure to feed leafy vegetables in moderation to avoid diarrhea)
- Cucumbers
- Broccoli (in moderation since it can be gassy and cause a gas pain)
- Green beans
- Grapes
- Bananas
- Dandelion Greens
- strawberries (in moderation)
- oranges or clementines. A helpful way to feed these to your piggie if they're being picky is to scoop out some pulp from half an orange and leave some in it so they can lick it without needing to chew on it if they're not diggin' the texture.
- Iceberg lettuce
- Any type of cabbage
- Cauliflower
- Potato peelings
- Raw beans (this doesn't mean green beans. This means things like raw, hard kidney beans, split peas, pinto beans, etc.)
- Shelled nuts or seeds, particularly things like sunflower seeds or 'bird seed' type mixes.
- Rhubarb
- Meat or fish
- Dairy Products - while many stores will offer 'yogurt drops' and other 'treats', dairy is not healthy to feed your guinea pig and can actually cause problems. Feed natural treats like veggies instead of store brand treats. It's less expensive and your piggie will be much happier.
- Chocolate or other caffeine-containing products.
- Alcohol
- Cookies/bread*
*you can feed a small piece of cereal like a cheerio from time to time as a treat, but they will likely not even like it, so it's best to just avoid this altogether!
- hamster food, gerbil food, rabbit food, or any other non-guinea pig food. Often these contain seeds, which are a big no-no, but they also have a different balance of vitamins and minerals which aren't suited for a guinea pig's dietary needs.
- corn kernels or popcorn
- sugary foods like donuts, candy, or soda
- Ice cream.
- Any processed or fried foods that you would eat, including potato chips/nachos or french fries.
- Cheese
- anything spicy. jalapeno peppers, anything with cinnamon, etc. Even with regular bell peppers (which guinea pigs LOVE), be sure to get rid of all of the seeds.

∙ 13y agoGuinea pigs live primarily on vegetables while dogs are mostly carnivorous. There probably is not anything in guinea pig food that would harm a dog necessarily, but it would not be healthy for a dog to eat guinea pig food. I'm sure it does not have nearly enough protein for a dog.

Why do dogs loves guinea pigs?
Because dogs find guinea pigs a tasty little bite between meals. It might be possible to befriend dogs and Guinea pigs such that the dog won't harm the Guinea pig, and the Guinea pig isn't scared of the dog, but this would be the exception. The norm is that a dog will view a Guinea pig as a source of food, an expression of love not always fully appreciated by the Guinea pig.
Do guinea pigs train better with food or encouragement?
