FirstBarkDavid helped me understand the fundamentals of dog training that I needed to know to help establish the relationship with my three dogs. Very straightforward, very personable, and amazing at explaining all the assignments I needed to do, by giving step by step instructions. He is truly passionate and very knowledgeable!!!!! I know we found our forever trainer.!!!

Hi, I'm David. Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember, and that lifelong bond is what drives my dedication to the craft of dog training. As a professional trainer with extensive experience, I specialize in bridging the communication gap between dogs and their owners. My balanced training approach integrates modern behavioral science with a deep respect for each dog’s unique personality. Whether you're working on foundational manners or complex behaviors, my goal is to help you build a reliable, lifelong connection with your pup.

David with Kinected K-9 AZ gave us more than we could have hoped for with a trainer. Reading many reviews still left us feeling hesitant to leave our dog with a trainer willing to board and train. I'm confident in saying that we got lucky when a family member started training with David. Seeing her success, and hearing her praises, had us very interested. We decided to meet with David for an assessment to see what training course was a good fit (and make sure we all got along, of course) and decided on the Advanced Training course. After several weeks of boarding and continuous work and patience (with us and our pup!), we've now graduated, and couldn't be happier with the progress she made. It's safe to say that we'd recommend Kinected K-9 AZ to anyone down the line.

When you first meet David, you can see the passion radiating from the way he interacts, speaks to and about dogs. He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable, but he loves all his furry clients. He’s helped so much with my puppy from basic commands (sit, down, stay, etc) and we’re already moving into tricks and more difficult commands. He goes above and beyond for his clients and I’m so happy to be a part of the Kinected K-9 family 💜

Dave was an amazing trainer. He came all the way out to California for a week to train Mowgli, my 5 month old shepherd mix. Dave took the time to work with him and gain his trust and taught him so many great things. I can't wait for him to get older so we can make the trip out to Az to continue his training. In the mean time we get to practice with all the great videos that Dave posts online! If you're looking for a trainer that's knowledgeable and passionate about dogs then look no further!
Top Notch trainer! I ran into David by chance as my dog was walking me around the block 🤣 I feel lucky, the passion and dedication just oozes out of him when you see him work with your fur kid. If you as the parent aren’t ready to take advice and work-don’t waste anyone’s time.…Read full reviewClose full review
Top Notch trainer! I ran into David by chance as my dog was walking me around the block 🤣 I feel lucky, the passion and dedication just oozes out of him when you see him work with your fur kid. If you as the parent aren’t ready to take advice and work-don’t waste anyone’s time. I had to be open to the idea of change following his recommendations -I’m still a work in progress! Reach out to David, you won’t be disappointed 😊
