Nicknames: Nipper
Bio: I was looking for a new guinea pig, and when i saw him i loved his colours.  He was only 3 weeks old in the pet shop, and was still with his mama.  I got to pick him up 1 week later.  When we got him home we saw there was a problem with him, and over the next few days it got worse.  he couldn't walk or eat etc.  i really thought he was not going to make it, but with a little TLC he managed to pull through.  Lucky Me, i chose a little fighter.
Character: Noisey, demanding.
Peculiar marks: When we first got him he had a bald spot about his nose, but it has since grown over.
Best tricks: He will spin around for a treat, or when i say "Spin"  he is so clever.
Worst tricks: Nipping.  he is at the stage where he wants to chew everything.
Name story: Sahara's colouring reminded me of the red sand of the Sahara desert.
Favorite moments: - When we knew he was going to live after the first week of sickness when we got him.
- Finally showing my family the spinning trick he does.
Embarassing moments: - Telling my family he spins, but when the watched he wouldn't do it cause he was scared of everyone.  Argh, no one believed me!
-  When he peed on me while we were watching TV together.
