Question
HELLO,
I HAVE A 16MONTH OLD CHILD AND HE HAS ASTHMA AND I WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE HEARD OF A GUINEA PIG TRIGGERING ASTHMA ON A CHILD.

THANK YOU,
AMY

Answer
Dear Amy,

  One of my friends has a child who has asthma and says usually he i;s fine but if his allergies are acting up make sure he has his medication on hand. I highly recommend getting a short-haired guinea pig to decrease the chances of your child being sick.

        Good Luck,
