Angela,
Being a dog guide user and a rehab teacher, this is something I deal with on
a daily basis.  Teaching grooming is very easy however the one thing I would
guard against someone with a visual impairment doing is trimming nails.
This can be difficult since precautions have to be taken not to clip the
quick in the nail which can cause much bleeding.  If you want further or
more detailed suggestions please feel free to email me.
