It's my first time with male piggies and when I tried holding them down for their first boar cleaning, I failed miserably. Is there any place in NYC that does boar cleanings for piggies so I can take my boys there at least for their first one?

How about a video that will show you how to do it? Lots cheaper, and just as effective.

Just a caution -- they may not actually need cleaning. You should check weekly, but only clean as necessary. The kind of bedding they're on, their age, and how much scent marking they do will affect whether or not they actually need cleaning. Older boars are much more likely to need cleaning than younger ones.
I've watched many videos about boar cleaning but both of my piggies are very squirmy. One of them is still recovering from being sick and has soft poops so there's a chance he needs a cleaning. I'll give it another try but don't know of I'll be successful.
