Show coats and hand-scissor finishes for Huntington-adjacent families.
San Marino has been home to the Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens since 1919, and to some of the most loved-on dogs in Southern California ever since. Fluffy Puppy Grooming is a seven-minute drive west via Huntington Drive — we hand-scissor every finish and never rush a sensitive show coat.
San Marino was founded in 1913 by Henry E. Huntington as a planned residential community on his 600-acre estate. The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens — Huntington's gift to the public — opened in 1928 and remains the city's defining landmark, with 130 acres of themed gardens (the Japanese, Chinese, and Desert Gardens are the most famous) and a rare-book collection that includes a Gutenberg Bible. Median home values consistently rank San Marino among the wealthiest small cities in California; many homes have been in the same family for three generations.
San Marino's dog scene leans show-coated: Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Standard Poodles, Wheatens, Shiba Inus, Bichons, Cocker Spaniels. Lacy Park — the city's only public park, gated and on-leash — is the social hub for morning walks. Many San Marino dogs see us every four weeks like clockwork, with the same groomer and the same finishing notes maintained for years.
We hand-scissor every San Marino finish. Most clients here book the Full Groom, often paired with the Blueberry Facial and Cologne & Bow add-ons. We're not the cheapest groomer in the SGV — we are the most patient, the most consistent, and the one most likely to remember that your Wheaten gets anxious about face trims.
Yes. We never shave-down show coats and we maintain breed-specific styling between visits. Bring photos of your preferred finish for your first appointment.
Mobile is convenient but limited on space and equipment. We can do hydro-baths, hand-scissor finishes, and de-matting work that mobile vans simply don't have room for. Plus orthopedic mats for senior breeds.
Yes — we keep detailed notes on every regular client, including blade sizes, ear setting, and any sensitivities. Same groomer matches every visit when possible.
