You can't get them to walk on a leash normally. This is because they are not dogs and wander everywhere when they are on a leash. You can buy leashes from pet shops but you have to keep in mind that the guinea pig will not follow you, you have to follow it.

Can a Guinea pig be on a leash outside?

Well they probably wouldn't "walk" very well not like a dog or anything but you can get harnesses and leashes and you could put them on it and let them wander around a grassy area (instead of using an enclosure) but you need to be careful that they don't eat something that is poisonous and there is always the chance that they could get fleas or mites.

Can you walk guinea pigs?

Yes, you can walk a Guinea pig. You can buy a harness for it at a pet store. However, you should know that wearing a harness and "being walked" is highly unnatural for a guinea pig. In captivity, guinea gigs should be kept with plenty of space. Rocks and rocky ground are good for climbing (which keeps them fit) and for maintaining their claws (wear-out on rocks keeps the claws short and healthy). A balanced diet and appropriate living conditions should be all the guinea pig needs. If it needs walking, something is wrong with its keeper.


How much do guinea pig leashes cost?

You can find them at your local pet store for close to seven to twelve dolloras, it depends on the brand. I must warn you that a leash isn't such a good thing for them because it can cut off circulation, or choke them, most people think, and say: "Oh it's soooo cute a guinea pig on a leash just trying to walk, oh how sweet!" But they don't like it, just like dogs don't like to wear clothes that much. So you can buy a leash and make YOU happy, or not buy a leash and make your guinea pig happy.
