Masterful Styling & The One-to-One Experience
Precision Poodle Services
We offer a range of specialised cuts and maintenance techniques tailored to the Toy, Miniature, and Standard Poodle:
- The Signature Scissor: From the classic Lamb Cut and Sporting Clip to the popular Teddy Bear trim, we use precision hand-scissoring to create a balanced, plush finish.
- Technical Details: We provide expert "Clean Face, Clean Feet" clipping, ensuring the sharp, traditional look that keeps your Poodle comfortable and hygienic.
- The Fluffs Process: Every Poodle receives a premium hydrobath, followed by professional fluff-drying (no cage dryers). This is essential for straightening the curl from the root, allowing for an even, high-end finish that lasts longer between grooms.
- Coat Health & Management: For the active York Poodle, we offer practical "City-to-Country" clips—shorter on the legs to avoid burs and mud, while keeping the head and tail beautifully styled.
Experience a more refined approach to Poodle grooming. At Fluffs, we combine a walker’s heart with an expert stylist’s hand.
Your dog means the world to you, so choosing the right groomer matters.
At Fluffs, grooming is not just about appearance; it is about comfort, care and trust.
I hold a Level 2 & 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming and each appointment is a one-to-one experience tailored to your dog's breed, coat type and personality. I take time to understand what your dog needs and how they are feeling, ensuring every session is as relaxed and positive as possible.
From puppies learning the ropes to dogs who have been coming for years, every groom follows the same gentle approach.
Bespoke Poodle Styling in York
From a "Puppy’s First Curls" introduction to intricate breed-standard styling, our Poodle menu focuses on technical precision and skin health:
- The Full Poodle Groom: Expert scissoring and clipping to achieve your desired silhouette, from a plush Teddy Bear trim to a crisp Modern or Lamb cut.
- The Precision Finish: A specialized service focusing on "Clean Face, Clean Feet"—the hallmark of Poodle grooming—ensuring hygiene and that signature sharp look.
- The Poodle Prep & Fluff: A deep-cleansing hydrobath and professional hand-fluff-dry. This essential process straightens the curls from the root, making the coat easier to manage at home and preventing matting.

Common Questions
At what age should my puppy have their first groom?
I recommend bringing your little one in as soon as they’ve had their second set of vaccinations (usually around 12–14 weeks). my Puppy Introduction is all about "paws-itive" associations—we keep it short and sweet with lots of cuddles so they learn that the groomers is a fun place to be, not a scary one
How long does a full groom take at Fluffs?
On average, a Full Dog Groom takes between 2 to 3 hours, depending on your pup’s coat condition and size. We take our time to ensure every dog feels relaxed and pampered. We’ll give you a "heads up" text about 15 minutes before your best friend is ready for their red-carpet exit
Does hand stripping hurt my dog?
Not at all! When a coat is "blown" (ready to come out), hand stripping is a painless, natural process. It’s actually the best way to maintain the wire-hair texture and deep colour for breeds like Terriers. I have been expertly trained to do this gently, ensuring your pup stays comfortable throughout the session
What is your appointment & cancellation policy?
I ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to reschedule. This allows me to offer the slot to a pup on our waiting list. Late cancellations or "no-shows" will be subject to a fee.

"I’ve tried a few places, but nobody gets the cut right like Lucy at Fluffs. My Spaniel’s coat has never looked so vibrant or healthy. Definitely 10/10, I would recommend!"
