Yeah, it took me about 10 mins to teach one of my 3 month olds to stand on her hind legs to the command "up". im now teaching them to touch a target which is a blue ball. All you need is something they REALLY like, i use youghurt drops designed for them, and to make her stand just hold above their head, she will stand on her back legs to reach it, this is using their natural instinct to ur advantage. when they stand up give it the treat. mine even does it without being prompted cos she thinks shes gonna get a treat for it. Just remember they arnt very acrobatic so try something simple like standing or touching a ball with their nose, once target trained you can teach them to play football or other things, could even try getting them to put things in a certain place like litter in a bin if you have the time and patience.

So a few tips

1. find something they REALLY want

2. choose a simple trick to start with and expand if you want to

3. if their not to jumpy you could even clicker train them like you would a dog.

4. remember they dont have the same brain capacity as a dog so dont exect them to be able to do everything and dont work them to hard each time. just for for a few mins and leave them when they have had enough. dont force them to do anything they dont want to as they wont want to know.

good luck and remember, anything is possible.

Yes, guinea pigs can play outside, but it is not a very good idea to take a guinea pig outside because many types of birds eat things like guinea pigs and could be hiding in a tree waiting for you to leave your piggy. And also while playing outside guinea pigs could pick up bugs like fleas and ticks. If you keep a close eye on your piggy though, and play on concrete you can have loads of fun outside!! :) Hope this helps!!!
