Patricia Alicea

Patricia Alicea is an American guinea pig breeder in Dover, Tennessee, serving Stewart County and middle Tennessee near Nashville. She has been raising American guinea pigs for over eight years and follows comprehensive health screening protocols for mites, routine dental checkups, and balanced nutrition plans. As a member of a regional cavy breeders group and a regular participant at local agricultural fairs, she stays current on best practices for breeding and care.

The pigs live in spacious, well-ventilated enclosures stocked with hay racks, hideaways, and chew toys, and receive fresh vegetables and daily vitamin C supplements. Her hands-on approach to handling from an early age promotes gentle temperaments and reduces stress when meeting new people. School groups and families often remark on the friendly animals and the calm, homelike atmosphere of her setup. Patricia maintains consistent family lines to preserve healthy traits and occasionally supports classroom pet programs with well-socialized young pigs.
