"There's a goat eating my pants. You never know what to expect." 😂😂😂
Guinie is such a cutie pie!! What a good boy 🤗
That is a lot for a young guinea pig to be dealing with. There is only so much medicine can do and then you have they think about their quality of life. Thank you for sharing this to help spread knowledge of guinea pig health.
My heart broke watching this. I pray that he lives as long as God willing without much pain, poor baby😔🙏
Thank you Saskia & Dr Nann! I have suspected my boar, Oreo had Satin Syndrome but wasn't sure. He's always walked a little weird on his hind legs but otherwise seemed fine. About a month ago now I thought he had dislocated his hip and took him to the vet's. I had to wait about a wheek! The radiology report said, "bones seem moth-eaten in appearance..." Then you were talking on one of the last few Lives about satin syndrome and it sounded just like my Oreo's symptoms and now with this video...! Wow! I have learned and continue to learn so much from you and the crew Saskia! Thank you sooooooo much for all your love, dedication, and perseverance with helping and educating piggy parents, piggy medicine, and the public!!! You all are awesome!!!! BTW Oreo is on Meloxidyl and is moving around more than ever. Still walks/hops a bit funny but is active!
Try CBD to rub on his ears as well - we sell it in our store as well
Can’t wait to read your paper on calcified bulla. That needs to be a point of focus in guinea pig medicine practice.
Your education Works. Serious. This has helped me do a rescue for a little guy.. I knew he was not ok, not comfortable, because of what you show and share. I Knew to take a stand and give him comfort and peace. When I watched this upload my thought was immediately that he, the one featured here in this upload, ought to be put down, because of the situation I had to deal with within the last 3 days. It is cruel to keep them in pain and not able to be the happy guys guinia pigs are known to be like, bobbing there tuffs of hair and self cleaning joy and their little purrs... Quality of Life is VERY important. No animal should be abused and uncared for, and not kept in uncomfortable situations. Poor sweet little gems they are.
I agree whole heartedly. Allowing any being the kindest exit to the next expression of life is THE kindest, most humane thing to do. Keeping this piggie drugged and alive is not the best thing for him. He is incurable on this plane, release him to the non-physical perfection.
@@geralyn-mm So beautifully expressed. 😓
We had a little satin girl who had a good 3 years after being diagnosed at 2. Her osteodystrophy manifested in her jaw. She was on metacam and tramadol to keep her comfortable, monthly tooth trimmings and critical care hand feedings. She was the bestest of pigs.
Having a guinea pig savvy vet is so important and we couldn't have given this girl the life she had without our amazing vet. The only regret I have is that I had not found this vet in time to save her sister who had the same disorder but manifested much earlier.
I never knew satin syndrome and calcified bulla were things that happened to guinea pigs. I hope they're able to find some way to help them at some point. It's horrible to watch them suffer so young.
Yes me too, me too ......
I have a satin with dental disease and i go to one of the best guinea pig doctors in the netherlands, Eva Stoffels! My piggy was always skinny, just 700 grams but now weighs over a 1000! I feed her a mixture of wheatgrass powder, sugarfree soymilk and grind up kibble (thats actually horse kibble cuz its better nutrition wise) all by advise from this vet and Im so happy! she still needs pain meds but I love her so much and hope she keeps doing well! I hope the same for the boy in the video
"they bite me and if I say OUCH that's a good sign" 😂😂
😂
Poor baby xxx Thank you for doing all you could with him xx
Thank you for posting. Didn't know about Satin disease. Poor Guinea. God Bless all piggies they are so sweet but can have so many conditions. I'm glad I had a super vet who just retired.
Aaaaaaaw poor baby, such a lidl sweetie. Sending love and kisses to a cute boy, having such a hard time. Here's hoping he can be made comfortable and have some quality of life. Or that the owners can bring themselves to do the kindest thing and let him go run with the other piggiez over the rainbow bridge. Oh what a beautiful lidl soul he is! 😘😘😘
So very sad the breed should be banned from all areas of the pet trade it should be made illegal to breed and sell as people fall in love with these gorgeous little guys and end up loosing them it is heart breaking! More importantly it is crewel and very unnecessary for an innocent animal to be put through all that pain when there are lots of other breeds to choose from. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us ♥ 👍
Okay, so a satin is an actual breed? An Abyssinian can't be a satin?
@@marcificht4013
They can, its like fur color any breed can have it.
Poor little fella.
Oh brave Saskia putting your pinkie in the piggies mouth! Since my six stitches bite I will never do that. Bless you and everyone at LAGPR. This breaks my heart to see his bones.
Poor guy. Praying for him that he can get some relief from the pain. 🙏😪🙏🙏
I love the cute goat bleating away. :)
And eating my pants!
This video was fascinating and sad all at once. Thank you for sharing and raising awareness.
This hurts my heart. Poor nugget
My guinea pig looks like he might be a satin, just because how shiny and silky his fur is though its hard to tell because he is so dark, thankfully if he is already a year old and is quite the chonk and eats very well though he's not much for exercise and prefers relaxing to exploring.
Kudos to Saskia for all her work. She goes the extra step for piggies and owners. I have a rescue Satin and when I originally rescued her I was hoping to place her and her companion with a rescue. That changed when I spoke to the rescues in my area and the refused to take Suki, my little satin. They never looked at her or asked for any medical information they just refused to even consider her for rescue/rehoming. I had to do some major scrambling to set up long-term "fostering". 4 babies and two yrs later Suki is healthy and popcorning cutie. She is the leader of our little herd and living her best life. Luckily no sign of having the satin syndrome as yet.
Thank you all, l've learned so much, yet still have much to learn.
I got my two piggies from this rescue like 3-4 years ago thank you
Love your educational videos . I am Learning so much . Thank You for your Dedication!!
I'm so appreciative of all that you do for piggies
When I heard about the disease from the video, I feel scared and sad for guinea pig which has got it.
I lost two of my beloved pigs, likely to satin syndrome. Knowledge about this disease should definitely be more widespread. Satin guinea pigs are gorgeous, but it's just in no way worth the harsh price that the pigs have to pay for their genes. I don't want it to turn out like with other types of pets, where certain breeds are bred with all kinds of diseases. It's just not at all fair for the animals.
I wish more people knew about this, so videos like yours mean a lot to me.
Poor baby :( hope he getting the best help he can get
The goat SQUEALING back there is cracking me up, so cute lol
Having been on the end of a similar type of call (getting a diagnosis that wasn’t good). I truly felt that pain.
I couldn’t imagine putting my baby through more of that though. 😞❤️
That's so sad, poor little guy.
Thank you for this video. Two days ago I made a test if Erna is able to hear. And sche is not anymore. Today I went to my vet with her and found a breathing sound. The vet is not quiet sure, if she has the bullar syndrome. It could be also a middle ear infection. Erna gets now antibiotics and pain medication. We will see how this will turn out. Thanks to your educative videos. I wouldn't be so sure what to look at.
Poor baby❤🙏
Just so heartbreaking 💔
Yes, we had a few miscarried babies with deformities due to Satin Syndrome. :(
Wow, this was a sad story. But thanks so much for informing us about these things! I didnt knew about this disease until now and was thinking about getting some satins later again, as i love their fur. But no piggy (no animal!) should have to live like this, just we prefer a certain look.
I can’t believe those are X ray pics… in human medicine that kind of pic is from a CT scan or MRI, X ray pics are hardly ever this clear and sharp
Hey, are you able to do some more videos on satins how to care, why they shouldn’t be bred ect? There isn’t enough information on them, I feel it’s so important! I have 15 rescue satins here!
oh wow that is a lot!!! Must be a satin breeder in your area. I do stories as they come up and we do not get many satins here. But I agree it is a VERY important subject and most of these little guys suffer from osteodystrophy.
I never knew about this poor little boy
So sad 😞 poor baby is barely full grown and has this much pain. Tramadol was the only thing that brought our piggie with calcified bulla any relief. He would stop eating if we missed a dose.
Poor little guy 🤣
We have a satin 😮 I had no idea, and would not have chosen one, had we been aware. We will keep a close eye on him for sure! And I will ask the breeder if she breeds with this in mind 🤔 is it possible they can be bred responsibly to reduce the risk?
No not possible
I really think Saskia should study for the Doctor of vet medicine! 🎉
How heartbreaking. That poor baby 😭😭😭 I try to donate atleast a few dollars to you guys every time I have the extra money, and I will continue to do so. What are the symptoms of a calcified bulla and is this alone able to be treated?
I hate that I no longer able to donate. My medical bills are so bad now that my health is failing.
Watching and commenting is good, LAGPR will still receive funds & more if you watch the adverts 💞
I’ll pray for you
I have a satin named Stede and it breaks my heart that this is even a thing.
I sure wish breeders would stop breeding Satins. In this country they are shown at piggy shows and it sucks. While that goes on we will always have Satins. It’s cruel. I think they are banned in Australia or maybe it’s New Zealand. It’s one of those places. Is it really worth having Pigs in this horrible pain so a human can gain points at a show..🐾
Could this be compared to brittle bone disease?
Are you on Amazon Smile?
Yes! smile.amazon.com/ch/27-1292225
Is this a genetic problem or inbreeding? I hope you are able to give us update on the Guinea pigs that you got from the previous video. Thank you for giving us information about these precious animals.
Genetics and only happens in Satin guinea pigs. There are many Satin breeders in the world breeding away get the perfect coat and win a ribbon in shows. Petco / Petsmart sells them as well
Sometimes with these boarders I wonder if in some cases they know their pig is sick and board them knowing they are sick but, hoping you'll take care of whatever's wrong? I mean that may not be the case. I don't wanna judge no one. It just makes me wonder with some cases. Anyway, See you on tomorrows live. I'll be careful Not to make too many timestamps so I don't go over like last time. I'll leave the longer more detailed list of stamps in the comments, but now that I can get back into my email account again. I'll email yall the shorter one ( part of that was because the live went longer than most but It's no problem I can't manage. )🐹🐹💯
Thanks. you surprised me with this like. Since this is an older comment from two weeks ago. Usually no one reads comments from an older video, I know you are extremely busy, but thanks for the like. I was surprised that you saw this, since this is not recent.
Poor guy..old b4 his time
That goat has a lot to say.
where I live there is no specialist, I have to take them 500km to the closest specialist.... is there any way (obvious external signal) of satin syndrome?
Teeth issues, and walking with the butt in the air
What happened to the guinea pig? Did the owners come pick it up and get it fixed or did they take the easy way out and put the same to sleep. I don't think you need to put animals to sleep just because it's the easy way out.
The grand mother came & took piggie to the vet for painkillers
Cheryl - there was no fixing this little guy sadly
I agree , ppl make these decisions to euthanize and it infuriates me .
A life is a life .... wouldn't want that type of "person" around me....
We're quite happy that the piggies give us joy , but as soon as there's a problem..."let's euthanize" .
Sad .🌹
That is so sad. I hope they can keep him comfortable if they choose to treat him.
How can you tell if you have a Satin guinea pig. One of my new boys may be. Is it the softness and sheen of their fur? He is an Absynian.
@@cringegoblin7391
Thanks for answering.
I hope he’s healthy.
I thought maybe someone gave bath and used conditioner because it’s really soft and shiny.
🐹 Angie
@@cringegoblin7391
He’s such a sweet little guy..
They were surrendered and needed a home.
From first seeing him, I’m attached to him already.
I appreciate the info because I am always learning and I know more now from Saskia and Scotty, than I did as a kid with my sisters guinea pigs.
Im grateful for your help as well.
🐹Angie
Enjoy your videos…but seems like these little creatures, are extremely vulnerable ..
Yup, they are
It's so sad knowing that all the pain medications in the world will only make his death come a little easier.
My Girls will not eat a Banana unless its Fresh and Brand New💕
I would assist him over the Rainbow Bridge 💔🐹🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈
I’m sorry, even if they owner wasn’t aware of the satin syndrome, how could they let his condition get this severe?? They didn’t notice at all that he’s not eating or acting right? Ignorance at its finest!! If I were you I wouldn’t give him back to the owner. He better off staying at the rescue honestly
I advised the owner that euthanasia was the kindest thing. I do not know how he is doing now but hope that the right decision was made
