Junior Guinea Pig
So me and my OH went out to see a girl about a guinea pig, quite literally. She said she was giving away some swiss guinea pigs after an accidental breeding, so me and my girlfriend, after careful consideration, decided to help the girl out! When we got to the house there were alarm bells ringing in our heads, she owned two dogs, there was wee all over the floor, hair all over the counters in the kitchen. She led us through to a back room and revealed the most lovely looking swiss piggies I have ever seen but it was a heartbreaking sight! Three were white, one of the white ones had a chunk missing from his back, all their poos were a bit runny and one of the other tricoloured guineas had a lump on his hind leg that felt like some kind of water retention. We eended up getting into conversation with her and she said that she was breeding them, the ones she had out ranged from 2 months to two years ! she also mentioned something about getting the bunch she was showing us from another breeder. We never got to see where they were actually living but she came across as not knowing how to sex them herself and also knowing very little about a guineas basic diet she also mentioned having more guinea pigs outside, all of the piggies she showed us were covered in mud as well :/ Me and my OH took one away regardless, she gave him to us for free because she 'didn't need him' he was the healthiest little boy out of the few she showed us. He is now very healthy and we have named him Oreo to fit in with Rolo and Twix 
he lives next door to Rolo and as soon as we had set him up in his new home we reported the breeder to the RSPCA we havent heard back from them yet but they assured us they would check it out! It was so sad to see but I'm so happy we got little oreo who has made a full recovery in the last week or so. Just thought I would let people know that there (hopefully) is going to be one less breeder knocking around ! Also this works as an example, look out for the breeders and dont let them suck you in with sneaky lies !
