David starred alongside Dog in Dog’s Most Wanted which aired on WGN back in 2019.  

The series had a different premise than Dog’s other shows as it centered around hunting fugitives rather than people who had jumped bail with his company.

In the series – which only had one 10-episode season – Dog not only juggled his career but also his wife Beth Chapman’s cancer diagnosis.

Sadly Beth passed away after a battle with throat cancer at the age of 51 in Honolulu, Hawaii back in June 2019.
