Guinea pig dominance issues. Help please.?

Well i had the same issue. What you need to do is separate them and take a super light scented deodorant or something similar and put it on your hands then pet both pigs with the same scent. Reintroduce them and they won't be able to smell a difference between themselves. because they can't smell a difference they won't know who is dominant any more. it worked for me but you still have to work to get them to like each other. also separating them for as long as possible, but still keeping them close, like putting them in 2 different cages side by side is a good idea. Also letting them on the floor or a large open space with several hiding spots and the food and water in one area will allow them to run away from eachother but they will still have to be together when they want to eat. try tempting them to stand together by hand feeing them grass on your lap. hope this helps!
