Indigo Girl Gets a Hair Cut





Indigo Girl is a beautiful blue French Angora doe.



Indigo Girl has her glory days in the shows, in 6 months she has won 17 legs of which 16 are BOB, then advanced to 3 all breed Best In Show, 2 all breed Reserve In Show, 1 specialty Best In Show and a Best of the Best.  




All good things have to come to an end, it's time for her to get an hair cut and prepare for the next stage of her life.




Some of her wool is in the bag than on her body.




More wool in the bag and on the grooming table and less wool on her body.



The naked body shows terrific depth.    With a bit more cleaning up on the side, she will be meeting a nice buck and prepare her life to be a mom.
