If you are willing to take your blind pup to a groomer I highly recommend Shelley's Pet Boutique in Hollywood. She has a grooming shop in her home and she is a pet whisperer when it comes to grooming neurotic animals. I have two crotchety, old-biddy, mini-schnauzers who are both 15 years old and HATE to be fooled with, but she manages to get them washed, nails trimmed and groomed every time! She has the level of patience and a calming effect that works on them.
