Gary Breitbarth was destined to be a dog man. His father, Gordon, was field trialing dogs in the late 1960's when Gary was just a young boy. He ran his first all age trial when he was 16 years old and championed his first field trial springer, AFC Candy's Peppermint Patty. Gary turned Pro in 1978 and over the years, has found local and national success field trialing English Springer Spaniels; earning numerous awards, and handling NFC FC AFC Whirligig Canis Serius, NFC FC Prince Edward and NFC FC B-C's Sarah's Abby Gale to their National Championship titles. Gary's technique takes time and patience, and has certainly paid off. The dogs he has trained that have earned titles are:
