g****a Pig's Lower Back?

Question

Whenever I try to pet him there he'll turn his head really fast or run away. Does anyone else have this sort of problem? =/

Answer 1

Yes... My little piggie named Cookie Dough has the same problem. I hold him all the time and he has a great life but still he is so skittish. Guinea pigs are frightened very easily. You just need to take that guinea pig out and give him something he loves, for example mine loves big dark lettuce leaves. Then start petting him slowly. I do this everyday and although its getting better he still squeaks and trys to run when I pet him. None of my other pigs do that though. Its just something to get used to. How long have you had your pig?
