About Milky Paws
Milky Paws is a dog grooming salon in MacGregor, in the Belconnen district of Canberra, that works exclusively with Poodles and Oodles. It is a family-owned business run by groomers who describe more than 25 years as Poodle parents, and the salon operates strictly by appointment only.
The focus on a single family of breeds shapes the whole experience. The groomers draw on a working knowledge of the Poodle and its cross-breeds, their temperaments, genetic dispositions, and coat conditions, and they make a point of not rushing sessions so each dog has time to settle. That patient approach suits puppies arriving for an early groom and dogs who find the salon stressful, with a dedicated My First Bath and My First Groom introduction for young pups. Grooming covers the non-shedding crosses Canberra families tend to own, including Cavoodles, Spoodles, Maltipoos, Labradoodles, and the Poodles at the centre of it all.
For Poodle and Oodle owners around Belconnen who want a groomer who genuinely knows the coat, Milky Paws keeps the work calm, careful, and breed-specific.
