    It sounds like he has an ear infection. You need to take him to a Vet.

    Get him checked out by a Vet...You are responsible for his well being!

    thats helpful, its a vet i am asking!!!!!!!!!!!! husband is a vet but a second opinion while hes abroad would be good, as you know when you go to your doctors you always get second opinions from the spec. but i agree with you, too many people have pets and are not responsible about the well being of the pet or pets dont have pets if you cant afford to look after them, or lose interest, well said mille 111.

    Am not sure if there are any vets on this site??..but it sounds like the little guy needs to be seen by a vet for diagnosis/?treatment prn.
    Good luck..I hope he is ok!..
    All good wishes.

    Wow, you don't trust your own husband's diagnosis? You would instead trust the words of strangers on the internet? You should have called a vet in the first place then.

    Yes..I thought the same!...But if the husband`s out of town..then I`d go straight to one of the Vet partners/or ano vet!...It`s the g.pig I`d be more worried about...(So if the husband`s a good vet..(I`m sure he is)!...Then his ego shouldn`t take too much of a battering if ano vet is consulted in his absence):-0...((The more I see of people...The more I love my pets))!!!;-)

    Sounds like he needs a chiropractor...poor liddle dooger...or it could be his hat...in any case I hope he gets well soon!

    Thankyou, you sound like your a care worker or support worker, its the phrases you use are the same as we do at work as a nurse? hope you have a good day, sun is out go get your daily vit. D, thanks again.

    Could it be ear mites? Still let a doc check him out!

    u should probaby take him to the vet

    it is nothing bad 


    my guinea pig did that 


    she lived a long life so i am sure your guinea pig will so do
