At first I even believed they might have copied the fighting concept from BK. The recovery is almost identical to BK's flying move. Also the way Kazooie uses his beak to stab his opponent while Banjo ducks is also very similar to the DHD's A move. If they chose every DHD move that includes the duck and give it to BK, it would be a perfect match. first off, Kazooie is a girl.

Secondly, DH's neutral jab combo is a series of pecks, BK's would be Banjo's punches. DH's dash is a duck/peck/slide thing, BK's would be Banjo doing a barrel roll. DH's recovery has the duck carrying the dog while flying, BK's would be a sort of half glide like Meta Knight like getting red feathers in the game.

I could go on, but I just don't want people to call him DH inspired the same way people assumed Mega Man would've been Samus inspired or Palutena being Zelda inspired etc.

tldr; I don't want people to sell any character short, because the world of smash has endless possibilities.
