DMZ can probably tell you more about her dogs. But in my experience, if the dog's hair has any curl to it and it is cut really short it might have a fluffy, sort of curly look to it. Catcher has a ton of hair and if it were not tied up it would stand out straight all over his head sort of like a fluffy chow. Dogs with very fine silky hair probably don't have a "fluffy head". Kallie's hair is more on the silky side, especially her head and ears, so it is not at all fluffy.
