For the health of the guinea pig, I recommend you do NOT take him/her in the shower! The water would overpower him/her and they would probably drown...
I hate animal cruelty, so DON'T DO IT!
I hope this helped... .

You will need
- A dirty guinea pig
- A sink or bathtub
- Two or three towels
- Guinea pig shampoo
- (If it's cold outside or especially cold inside) A hairdryer
first of all put the guinea pig in the sink or bathtub with a little amount of water just above their feet, then rinse the guinea pig in water, if the guinea pig freaks out a little bit then just get some water in your hands and pour it on the guinea pig but BE CAREFUL, you don't want the water to get any where near its face or ears just its body !!
then when you have rinsed it you will need the guinea pig shampoo cleaning stuff, you can buy this from a pet shop, then rub it in the guinea pigs body, remember not near the face or ears please !!! then carefully rinse off the guinea pig in the water again, PLEASE make sure its all off as it can irritate your guinea pig! then use a brush to groom your guinea pig. then dry him/her with a towel only if it freaks out when using a hairdrier !
The guinea pig will usually like the bath but they might not like it. Do it slowly and nicely so they don't get scared or scared of you. If its worm out side you can let them out to dry. make sure if you are playing with them out side or waiting for them to dry that there is not animals such as cats dogs birds any animals like that what might want so guinea pig for tea.
they get cold very easy so its best to dry them off before going out, but if you do be very careful. they can catch colds.
