At the age of just 12 months - Aust. Ch. ARALYEN Melting Moment "Poppy" (owned and handled by D. Blaney) wins Challenge Bitch and RU Best of Breed at the Sydney Royal Easter Show 2007.

6 months later Poppy takes out BEST IN SHOW at the Labrador Retriever Club of NSW 50th Anniversary show under breed specialist Mrs M. Litherland (UK).

“Chocolate who was just out of junior and certainly melted my heart ……. well put together and everything I was looking for here, none of the straight fronted 'showing fool' so often seen in yellows in particular today.  This bitch showed gently, her expression soft with excellent eye colour, correct length of muzzle, used her ears well.  Her front is correctly angulated with her elbows well under her body.  Not over angulated in stifle….She carries an excellent double coat which enhances a very typical tail, carried straight with her topline, which held on the move…..”

Congratulations and Well Done to Poppy and Di!
