Hi
Do you have other animals and how do they get on with ** guineapigs. I have 3dogs and my basset hound Daisy is besotted with my guineapigs but mainly the skinnys, so much so i have to sleep in the spare room where the piggies are so Daisy can watch the babys lol. I have them out on the bed with us and she loves them the guineas will sit with her to. My german shepherd x is best friends with the rabbit they groom and love each other. Sadly are ex racing greyhound Lana wont tolerate them so she is kept away. At night time i sleep on one half of bed, the basset on other and Dusty the rabbit in middle. My other half and other 2dogs sleep in our room ha,ha x
 
yes we have a dog,two cats and a tortoise, the cats are completely disinterested in the piggies, the dog, well, she is ok if they are on our laps, has a look and then goes to sleep. but i would nt trust her if they ran, then she would chase, the tortoise ? well what can i say?
 
Ahh have always loved tortosise lol. I can completly trust 2of the 3dogs. I used to handrear kittens and Daisy always played mum. I find it fasenating a dog 2bred to hunt can be so gentle and genually loves all animals. She willHowl at me to let me no when the guineapigs want there salad and woke me when one went into labour. When yogi had haypoke she cried at door when found out why it was a vet job x
 
I have 2 dogs and a cat. The dogs get a bit silly with the pigs sometimes but they are generally ok with them. The cat watches them intently when they have floor time and I get a bit wary about it but again she is generally fine with them.
 
My cats don't bother with any of my Guinea pigs and my dog sits next to the cages when I'm cleaning out etc. She just doesn't care either really, I think they are all rather chilled about everything because they have known of Guinea pigs all their lives.
 
We have 4 dogs who love the piggys to bits :) they will lick and mother them sweet realy, the piggys will run up to say hello to them :)).
We also have a rabbit who gets to see the pigs when he is in the run (piggys are in the hutches) the rabbit gets on fine with the dogs also.
We have fish too and a sea horse but they cannot really interact lol :)).
 
I highly doubt my hamster will the least bit interested in the piggies... i have no other pets :-)
 
12 piggles, one parrot and a hamster lol. :)) Hamster actually likes the guinea pigs! Paulie the parrot would like them as a snack!
 
My hamsters like the pigs. When they are in their balls they try to herd them (the pigs are free range).
 
I have a rabbit. It lies down on it's side and lets Rebel, our junior piggie lie on top of her, all supervised of course. She used to live with Bart and Bella my late piggies before I separated them.
 
I had a gorgeous Syrian hamster called Candy but she died last December.She was a gorgeous confident funny girl and I loved her to bits.My daughter had a Roboroskavi (sp?) hamster called Button but she died a few weeks ago.We had gorgeous cat called Poppy and she died 2yrs ago aged 19
We also had a bunny called Oliver her died last summer aged 8.

I wont go through all the animals we have had-including guinea pigs because there are so many.:(|)

Now we have a dog called Jasmine whose a Shih Tzu and our 4 guinea pigs.Jaz is fascinated by them and always has to be around when we are cleaning them out.She sits on my lap when they are having floor time but I would never trust her on the floor with them.I think she would think they are her cuddly toys and she shakes them!
 
My rabbit thinks she's a dog, you should see her chase after a ball if you throw it for her! :)) :)) :))
 
My dog seems to like them but also seems a little scared which is a strange considering she is a lot bigger than them :)). Coco loves Miss Piggy though, she doesn't move a lot so Coco just let's her snuggle next to her. With the others it's pretty much a sniff then walk away. Then we have a uromaxtyx but for obvious reason he doesn't go near the piggies lol.
