no. they are not dogs. you cannot take them for walks. they will get too tired and hate being in big open areas.
if you are wanting to use it while your piggy is on the grass, so it cant run away. it probably will find a way out and... there goes your piggy! your better off building a small area for them to play in out doors, like a small pen with plenty of shade etc.
guinea pigs are not dogs.
The answer above is wrong. Guinea pigs love open spaces to run in. They are very energetic. I'm sure your guinea pig will love going for walks as much as mine does. However, if your not walking it and your just in the yard then you should get a play pen.

∙ 13y agoI got one a month ago, and my guineas don't like it because it goes partially around their necks. If you do get one, then make sure you aren't forcing them to wear one. They need time to adjust and know that you aren't trying to hurt them.

Guinea pigs have sensitive spines and can be seriously harmed by harnesses.

Is a harness bad for a Guinea Pig?
Don't put the rodent in a harness it will try to get out of it like a cat trying to get out of its collar. The guinea pig doesn't need a harness and its body isn't right for a harness. If you have to ask then it is obviously not safe you should never buy something that you think might hurt your pet!! They might end up hurt if you take them for walks on a leash so don't do that and carry it around if you have to.
