Evelin Reynoso
CO-OWNER
As Co-Owner and Head of Operations and Client Services, Evelin plays a vital role in ensuring everything runs seamlessly both behind the scenes and during client interactions. She frequently joins David during training sessions, offering hands-on support and helping build strong relationships between clients and their dogs.
Evelin’s journey into the animal world began with Enzo, her loyal companion who came into her life at just 10 months old. Their unbreakable bond sparked a deep passion for dogs, eventually turning into a fulfilling profession. Today, she’s the proud fur mom to four incredible dogs—Enzo, Demerie, Myrtle, and Remus—alongside two cats, Dwight and Mose, and one bunny, Ramona.
Currently training to become a professional groomer, Evelin looks forward to offering grooming services that are not only high-quality but also rooted in care, trust, and respect for each animal's individual needs.
Outside of her work with the training and grooming business, Evelin also manages a livestock and grazing operation. Her passion for animals extends beyond pets to farm life, where she enjoys the balance of working closely with nature and contributing to sustainable land and animal management.

David Pina
Owner and Head Trainer
David’s journey into the world of dog training began five years ago at a local dog facility, where he quickly discovered a deep passion for working with animals. As he began hunting with his own dogs, he realized the level of obedience and communication required for them to perform successfully in the field. That experience sparked a fascination with unlocking each dog’s unique potential through focused training and trust-building.
While obedience training remains his core specialty, David thrives when working with high-drive dogs that need more than just a walk around the block. He’s dedicated countless hours to studying dog genetics, canine psychology, and the most effective behavior modification techniques—always striving to bring out the best in every dog he works with.
David’s ultimate goal is to help you build a lasting, functional relationship with your dog by conditioning them to your lifestyle and expectations. With a strong belief that every dog can succeed with the right guidance, David approaches each training session with patience, purpose, and a genuine love for what he does.
In addition to his work as a trainer, David is also the owner of Pina Family Farms LLC, where he oversees livestock and land management. His commitment to working with animals extends beyond dogs, reflecting a deep respect for nature, hard work, and the responsibilities that come with farm life.
