Question
What breed of pig should a first time pet owner get?

Answer
The breed really dosent make much of a difference. The only difference is how much grooming is needed. For the simplest grooming it is best to get a short haired female. Guinea pigs clean thereselves like a cat, therfore only needing a bath every 4 months or so.
