Bathing a guinea pig: what to try first, and drying it

The order here is the part worth repeating, because most of the bathing questions that come up are really grooming questions. A Peruvian with a dirty back end needs a trim and a bottom bath, not a full immersion, and the trim fixes it for weeks rather than for a day.

I have bathed a pig once in six years and it was because a vet asked me to. Everything else has been a warm cloth.
