Uptown Girl Oldie but Goodie




Uptown Girl is a grand champion with several all breed Best In Show and Reserve In Show under all her wool.   She is also very successful in the breeding department, has kids and grand kids.    She has not been in shows for a while then her coat comes in nice so why not.   She is sitting in Betty's chair patiently waiting for her term to be groomed.

  

In a class of 5 colored senior does, Uptown Girl is in the middle.  



Both show A  and show B judges like her enough to award her the Best of Breed.  Not bad for a 3+ years old gal.
