Hi there, just wondering if there is anybody here who has a skinny pig? I'm allergic to animal hair, but would like to test if I would be ok with a hairless guinea pig. I am in London, but can travel. And of course will bring wine, sweets etc as a thank you if I can come and test my allergy! Hope to hear from you soon! Many thanks in advance! :-)

Have you tried contacting any rescues local to you to ask the same question?
 
I have skinnies but I'm in Manchester and I also have haired piggies. So I don't think this would work for you.

Many thanks for your kind reply! Unfortunately wouldn't work,as needs to be just skinnies, o haired ones, to see if am allergic. But thank you so much for offering! :-)
 
Skinnies aren't entirely hairless. Some might have very little (Cam had a bit of a wispy nose and that's all) and some have a lot more (Bann had a very furry nose and very hairy feet when he was younger). If it's specifically the hair that's the issue then I think skinnies might still be a problem.
 
I have a skinny pig but he lives with a furry pig
my skinny pig does have fur on his nose, round his mouth and it’s a coarse type fur
