    I’m not a long winded person but I do like to speak about my great experiences. From first contact to picking up our puppy there weren’t any hiccups. All of Dawns responses and extra information were on point! She explained everything so well that I didn’t have any questions in the end. Dawn was 100% upfront an honest and that’s what started to put me at ease. On the day of pickup, we remained in contact and chose a landmark to meet at. The exchange was flawless and easy. If I had a bigger home I would definitely get another 1-2 more puppies from Dawn. Our puppy is now 6months and he high energy and without genetic issues. I highly recommend ’Capon Cuties.

    A Wonderful Experience Adopting Delilah from Capon Cuties! We had an absolutely amazing experience adopting our sweet Delilah from Dawn at Capon Cuties! From the very beginning, Dawn was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and dedicated to ensuring Delilah was the perfect match for our home. She provided detailed information about her care, temperament, and history, making the entire process smooth and reassuring. Delilah has been an absolute joy—she’s healthy, well-socialized, and clearly came from a loving environment. It’s evident that Dawn puts a lot of heart into raising and placing her animals, and we couldn’t be more grateful. If you’re considering adopting from Capon Cuties, we highly recommend it! Thank you, Dawn, for bringing Delilah into our lives!

    I recently brought home a 4-month-old male poodle from Dawn, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the moment we welcomed our puppy into our home, it was clear that he had been raised with incredible care and love. He is unbelievably sweet, highly intelligent, and has the most affectionate personality—he loves to cuddle with everyone he meets! What impressed me the most was how well-prepared he was when he arrived. He came with potty training experience, which made the transition into our home smooth and stress-free. Dawn and her family went above and beyond by providing detailed paperwork and making themselves available for any questions I had along the way. Their support has been so comforting, especially as a new puppy owner. It’s easy to see how much love and attention they give to their dogs. Our puppy was clean, healthy, and clearly well-socialized when we picked him up. I truly appreciate Dawn’s dedication and would recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, compassionate, and knowledgeable breeder. She is absolutely wonderful!

    Dawn was amazing to work with. Dawn was very communicative and understanding through the whole journey of finding my perfect pup. Working with Dawn was amazing. I will go to Dawn with Capon Cuties again in the future!

    Dawn was so responsive during the whole process. She provided me with all the information I needed and gave me the answers to all the questions I had. She even made it easier for me when it came time to picking up Laken by meeting me at an agreed upon location in the evening hours because my flight was coming in later and I still had to travel quite a distance. I'm so happy I found her on gooddog.com. It was my first experience on this site and working with her made me feel confident in using this site to find my new furbaby.
