The Adoption Process at Winnsom Puppies
Bringing home a Cavapoo puppy is a joyful, once-in-a-lifetime experience — and we want it to feel easy, transparent, and exciting from start to finish. At Winnsom Puppies, our adoption process is built around clear communication, family connection, and care for both you and your puppy.
Connect With Us
Everything starts with a friendly chat. Whether you discovered us online, through a friend, or by referral, we’re here to answer your questions and help you decide if a Cavapoo is the right fit for your home.
Reach out anytime by phone, email, or our Contact Form to learn more about current or upcoming litters and what makes our family-raised puppies so special.
Join the Waitlist or Reserve Your Puppy
When you’ve found the puppy you love, or wish to reserve from an upcoming litter, you can place a $500 deposit to reserve your puppy or hold your spot.
Deposits can be made easily on our website and are applied toward your puppy’s total price.
Once your deposit is received, you’ll get an email confirmation with your electronic Sales Agreement and Health Guarantee to review and sign.
Meet the Parents & Puppies
We welcome families to visit our home in Honey Brook, Pennsylvania, just outside Lancaster and West Chester. You’ll have the chance to meet our parent dogs, see where the puppies are raised, and experience the warm, hands-on environment that makes Winnsom Puppies different.
Visits are by appointment so we can give you our full attention.
Health & Socialization Promise
Every puppy receives a complete veterinary exam, is up-to-date on vaccinations and deworming, and is covered by our 2-Year Genetic Health Guarantee.
Because our puppies are raised in-home—played with daily, gently handled, and introduced to household sights and sounds—they’re confident, friendly, and ready to bond with your family from day one.
Pickup Day
When your puppy reaches the right age (around 8 weeks old), it’s time to bring them home!
We’ll go over your puppy’s health records, feeding routine, and transition tips, and answer any final questions before you leave.
If you’ve paid a deposit, simply log in to complete your final payment before pickup—your confirmation email includes a secure link for convenience.
Ongoing Support
Adoption day isn’t goodbye—it’s the beginning of a lifelong relationship.
We’re always here to provide guidance and support as your Cavapoo grows, and we love staying in touch with updates and photos. Many Winnsom families become dear friends, and nothing makes us happier than watching our puppies thrive in their forever homes.

Are You Ready for a Puppy?
Bringing home a Cavapoo is a joyful and deeply rewarding decision — but it’s also one that deserves thoughtful preparation. Cavapoos are affectionate, intelligent, and people-focused dogs who thrive on time, training, and companionship. Before you commit, take a moment to ask yourself these questions:
🕒 Time & Lifestyle
-
Do I have time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and training?
-
Am I prepared for the puppy stage — including crate training, potty breaks, and consistent routines?
-
Who will care for my Cavapoo when I travel or work long hours?
🏡 Home Environment
-
Is my home (and yard, if I have one) safe, secure, and puppy-ready?
-
Am I allowed to have a dog under my current housing or lease agreement?
-
Will my children or other pets be comfortable sharing their space with a new puppy?
💵 Financial Commitment
-
Can I manage both the initial adoption cost and the ongoing expenses of food, grooming, toys, and vet visits?
-
Am I financially prepared for emergencies or unexpected health issues?
❤️ Long-Term Responsibility
-
Am I ready to care for a Cavapoo for the next 12–15 years?
-
Do I understand that Cavapoos require regular grooming to keep their coats healthy and tangle-free?
-
Is everyone in my family on board with this lifelong commitment?
