Aw, that's too bad.

Honestly though, I don't know if the light sedation will work. At the shop I work at, wew refuse to groom sedateddogs. Dogs that are sedated are not in their right minds and they go absolutely bonkers -- biting, screaming -- they don't know where they are or what's going on; they are just terrified. I would give it a try, but I'm just warning you, it's alot easier to groom a dog when they are in a good state of mind. We also won't groom a dog with the owner around because people just don't understand that we are not hurting the dog when the dog is screaming and biting us and completely freaking out. They automatically think that we are brushing the dog too hard or holding the dog too tight or that we burned it or cut it or pulled it's hair.

Hope it works out for you and Bijou can get groomed. Good luck.
