5 Easy Tricks to Teach Your Guinea Pig FIRST

  • I get a lot of questions about which tricks are easiest to teach your guinea pig or which ones are best to start out with, so this video includes the 5 tricks I usually recommend, along with tutorials for each trick. Most guinea pigs learn these tricks pretty quickly, making them very beginner friendly.
    3 of these tricks were tricks I introduced to TJ the first day I brought him home (paws up, stand up, and circle.) He also learned to go through a hoop and follow a target stick shortly after too. These 5 tricks are great because they're super adorable, but not incredibly difficult or time consuming to teach. They're perfect to help you bond with your guinea pig and get your training off on the right paw!
    Tricks in the video:
    1. Paws Up
    2. Stand Up
    3. Circle
    4. Follow a Target Stick
    5. Go Through a Hoop

    My old piggie Ruby died a few months ago. One time I was scooping the poop in her cage, and she was following the poop scoop so I lifted it up in the air and she stood up! I kept practicing with her and sometimes she fell over on her back 😂 but every time before I gave her veggies, I had her stand up. Then after a few months of training, whenever she heard the fridge open and footsteps coming near, she would stand up on her own! She was such an awesome piggie. RIP Ruby ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

      Yes! They also each have unique personalities! My friend has a crested guinea pig and she is so smart. She is potty trained. She also will listen too. He just got another one and she is so jealous of the baby but doesn't hurt her thank goodness. She is so used to literally spending so much time with him out of the cage. It's like he became another piggy to her lol.

She is a little diva too she loves to complain about everything 😂

    I've taught my 3 piggies to do paws up and even put their front paws on my pinky finger, i think any tricks involving skin to fur contact are also really great for helping timid guinea pigs realise you're not a threat!
    my newest rescue guinea pigs used to be very shy around me but now they jump up on my lap, alas not for strokes because they're super fidgets, but just because they're confident and want to investigate me 😂

Thank you for your help and please can you do a video of how to keep your guinea pig happy because I want to gain his trust and know how guinea pigs can be happy because I might be getting one for my best friend and she has never had on before.

    This is so amazing! I’ve taught four of my pigs to spin but I’m definitely gonna try to teach them more tricks. This video is so easy to understand

    Tricks
    Find some veggies or fruits that you guinea pig likes, try putting some food in their chage and see what they like best. When you know what type of veggies or fruits your Guinea pig likes let him go out of his cage. And then try to feed them out of your hand. Get some big pieces then when he can grab from your hand then go to little pieces but not too small just the size of your own hand. Practise doing feeding your guinea pig. And then when you think he trusts you and you think that it is okay then you can feed him really small pieces. If your guinea pig doesn't move very much then you can buy him an exercise pan with treats in the ex pen and the treats are spread all around the ex pen so then they can wake around. And then you have the treat in your hand and drag it so the ginny pig will follow your hand. You can make it go in circles around an object.
