I have two pigs named Theo and Gus. Theo is very dominant and always chases Gus to mount him. I went to Petsmart yesterday to get supplies and saw what looked like the saddest adult Guinea pig living alone in this small enclosure. I want to get him. Both to help him and hopefully to give more structure to my little herd. Any tips or advice? Is this a bad idea? Theo can be aggressive and I don’t want more showdowns.

Hello! I’ve never had boars but from what I understand males are best in pairs only. Or one neutered male with one or more females. I think there’s too much risk of them fighting.
I sympathise though. I have to look away when I go into my local pet shop for hay etc
- or I’d end up having to get a bigger house!
I suspect the only way to do it would be to get him a second cage and then maybe get him paired up with a pal from a local rescue or something x
