https://guineapigsandy.com/all-about-guinea-pigs/articles/short-haired-guinea-pigs/ Short-haired guinea pigs are those whose coats are less than 2.
5 cm long.
According to the American ACBA list, only three breeds are classified as shorthaired: American, American Satin and Crested.
Meanwhile, in the European community of pig breeders, in addition to those listed above, the following breeds of guinea pigs, whose hair can be slightly longer and reach 6 cm, are considered short-haired – teddy (American teddy, Swiss teddy) and rex. American experts classify all teddy pigs as long-haired guinea pigs, and the Rex breed in the United States is generally absent from the list of breeds.
American Guinea Pig The American Guinea Pig is one of the most common breeds. It is these guinea pigs that can most often be found in pet stores. They have a short, shiny coat, smooth, without rosettes. The color can be any: one-color or with a combination of different colors. American Satin Guinea Pig – This breed is almost identical to the American breed. The only difference is the satin pig’s coat has a satin sheen, which gives it a glossy sheen.
English Self (Self Guinea Pig) English Selfies are all solid color guinea pigs. In accordance with the accepted standard of the English Self Cavy Club, pigs have a specific color of ears, paws (pads) and eyes. Several breeds of pigs correspond to this group, such as: * black self (Black Self), * white self with red eyes (Pink eyed white Self), * white self with dark eyes (Dark eyed white Self), * golden self with red eyes ( Pink eyed golden Self), * Dark eyed golden Self, * Lilac Self, * Beige Self, * Red Self, * Saffron Self ( Saffron Self, * Buff Self, * Brown Self, * Cream Self
Crested Guinea Pig The Crested Guinea Pig has the same smooth coat as the American. The difference is that there is one rosette on the head of the crested pigs. If this rosette matches the color of the rest of the coat, then such a pig is called an English Crested. If this rosette is white, then the pig will be called American Crested, or White American Crested. In Russia, crested pigs are often called crested.
Teddy (Teddy Guinea Pig) The hair of the Teddy breed is not so long, and in Europe guinea pigs of this breed are generally referred to as short-haired breeds. But according to the American Association ACBA, teddies are long-haired pigs. Teddy has a short, thick, very dense Teddy Satin Guinea Pig. The main difference between regular and satin teddy Teddy Satin and Teddy is the special sheen of the coat that plays nicely in the light.
American Teddy (US-Teddy Guinea Pig) The American teddy is quite easy to confuse with the rex, but still the teddy’s fur is thicker, shorter and stands on end. The coat on the belly is smoother than on the back. These guinea pigs got their name because of the similarity with teddy bears. The colors can be different.
Swiss Teddy (CH-Teddy Guinea Pig) Swiss teddies are similar to American teddies and rex, but their main difference is longer and denser fur (length about 6 cm), which grows almost perpendicular to the body, which is why the guinea pig looks like a dandelion – the same fluffy and airy. The colors can be different.
Rex (Rex Guinea Pig) The Rex Guinea Pig is a short-haired breed with very curly hair. The length of the coat is no more than 35 mm, but due to the steep curls, the coat is tight to the body.

It is necessary to clarify that agouti is both a separate breed of guinea pigs and a type of color
Argent Guinea Pig Pig, genetically belonging to the Agouti class, with red eyes, but not officially accepted into the Agouti group. They have recently been registered as a separate breed. There are several varieties: gold-lilac (Gold / Lilac), lilac-white (Lilac / White), lilac-lemon (Lilac / Lemon), beige-gold (Beige / Gold), beige-lemon (Beige / Lemon) and beige -white (Beige / White) Lemon-lilac Argent (CL Argent).
