Do you need to walk micro pigs?

Answer 1

No.

Buying the leash and harness was a PURE waste of money. Not only was it difficult to put on the pig, made it get stressed, and was hard to adjust- GUINEA PIGS ARE PREY ANIMALS. They will run at the slightest loud noise, strange environment, and can can get injured if they pull on the harness. I was stupid when i thought "Hey, maybe g-pigs are like dogs and can go on walks too!" WRONG.

It can be the worst mistake of your life giving your g-pig a walk. It can end with poisoning your pig, killing your pig, or losing your pig. It's just not worth the risk.

If you want to give your pig fresh air and grass to nibble on- build a pen, place your pig in it, and watch it so nothing gets to it. Walking a pig to look "cute" is not even a good enough reason.

Answer 2

probly not because it would loose consentration

Well, I had a Vietnamese pot belly pig, and he was able to walk backwards, especially if he did not want to go somewhere I was telling him to go.

Answer 3

It depends if your pig has a big C&C cage than its not necessary but if you have a pet store cage your guinea pig will enjoy it! I have two guinea pigs who I walk just because they like it event though they have a huge cage to run around they love it! Even if you have a big cage you still can walk your pig but its not as important.

Answer 4

Get a cane or stick and guide it with the cane
