Summer is here and many of us are looking forward to enjoying the great out doors with our skinny pigs. Here are some of the basics on what you should and should not do with your piggies.
Do get a harness or play pen to keep you piggies safe while enjoying the summer fun.
Don’t let you piggies on the grass unless you know it has not been treated with pesticides or other chemicals. These can cause illness and death if ingested.
Do let you piggies lead you around on a harness, never pull them. They will not follow like a dog.
Don’t put sun block on their skin. They can burn easily just keep them in the shade, sun block can cause skin rashes.
The biggest thing you should always remember is to never leave you skinny pig unattended outside even in a play pen. Everything eats piggies including birds, cats, dogs ext. With a little bit of knowledge you can include your skinny pigs into your summer plans.
Have a safe and happy summer!
