Highly recommend Kinected K-9 for any level of training! David has done an incredible job helping us train Kakashi, our now 7-month-old GSD. We started working with him a a couple months ago to help us manage his high reactivity to new people and places. We chose the 1-on-1 sessions and loved that David didn’t just help us train obedience—he taught us how to better communicate and understand our high drive, reactive pup through building his confidence. While we worked on basics, we also worked on socialization through various environments. It’s a lot of work, but David’s patience, knowledge, and genuine dedication exceeded our expectations, and we’re so grateful to be part of the community he’s built. The progress we’ve seen in our pup’s confidence, obedience, and ability to navigate new environments has been amazing. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares, and is a one stop shop, David is your guy!

After going through a couple of trainers and not having positive outcomes and spending quite a bit of money, I ran across David with Kinected K9. I reached out and gave it one more shot and could not be happier. I have gained so much knowledge from him, and my German Shepherd has built more confidence and obedience in the couple of months, then in the last three years of working with other trainers. I wish I had started out with Kinected K9 from the beginning And I highly recommend David.

I can't say enough great things about David and his dog training program. He is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and patient. One of the things that really stood out to me is that he has hands-on experience with his own Belgian Malinois, so he truly understands the breed's intelligence, energy, and training needs. Our Belgian Malinois, Maya, has made tremendous progress under his guidance. Thanks to David's training, Maya mastered potty training and developed excellent basic obedience skills much faster than we expected. David takes the time to understand each dog and provides clear, effective training techniques that really work. He was always available to answer questions and offered valuable advice throughout the process. If you're looking for a skilled trainer who genuinely cares about helping both dogs and their owners succeed, I highly recommend David. We are extremely happy with the results and grateful for all of his help!

I had the chance to be out in Arizona last month teaching a workshop hosted by David at Kinected K9, and it was a great experience all around. David put a lot of effort into making sure the event ran smoothly, and it showed. Everything was well coordinated, from the way the days were structured to how the working spots and audit spots were managed. It created a really solid flow that allowed us to cover a lot of material without things feeling rushed or disorganized. What I appreciated most was the level of intent behind how he runs things. He’s clearly focused on helping people actually understand the training, not just go through the motions. That mindset carried over into the group he brought in as well, everyone was there to learn, ask good questions, and put in the work. Kinected K9 is building something solid out there, and David is doing things the right way. I’m glad we had the opportunity to work together and would absolutely be open to doing more events in the future.

I can’t recommend David enough. He worked with my then 10-month-old Cane Corso Luka for 2 months, and the difference is honestly night and day. Our biggest issues were leash pulling and barking/aggression at dogs and people during walks, and those behaviors have improved drastically. Walks are now calm, controlled, and actually enjoyable. On top of that, Luka learned all of his basic commands and, just as importantly, proper boundaries in and out of the home. The training was clear, structured, and effective, and it gave me the tools to continue reinforcing the behavior at home. If you have a strong or stubborn breed and want real results, this is the trainer to go to. I don’t think there is a more stubborn breed than a Cane Corso and he’s succeeded with multiple of them. The life I’m able to give my dog because I trust him outside of the home and in all public settings was well worth the training…. Not only did David train Luka but he also has trained me and guided me on this journey to insure I succeed as a dog owner to the best of my abilities. The communication before the training began, during, and now afterwards has been great. David didn’t just become my dog’s trainer but also my teacher and friend. The work and knowledge he provides is 2nd to none and it’s awesome to see and experience.
