I am still trying to find a great groomer and have reached out to several ones in the area and none of them are comfortable with such a small puppy. He is now 2.6 lbs and the vet is struggling to see how he will reach 5 lbs.

He is so sensitive and cries or whimpers about everything that I am having a hard time trying to cut or groom him myself. Ughhhh.....

I will post a pic of him soon. He is adorable and I love him so much. Just want him to get healthy. I has been a long two months since his original illness.
I would just do the grooming yourself...that way, you know for sure she will be safe while getting groomed. It's a learning process for you both...so just be patient and know that you'll learn along the way.

Do you have a 'mustache comb'...? That's what I use all over their body, esp for matts.
