Dog Training That Lets You Enjoy Your Dog More
We understand that dog training is more than obedience commands, it’s about being able to enjoy your dog! Imagine all of the things you can do when you can communicate with your dog! We know you can’t love them anymore than you already do, but you can certainly enjoy them more, and that’s what we love to be apart of. Teaching your dog to have a high level of obedience allows communication regardless of the environment.

ENGAGEMENT
A properly trained dog eagerly seeks out their human to perform their obedience behaviors for them. Have you seen a dog hold eye contact with their person and follow them around without being asked? This unrequested attention is called engagement, and it is the building blocks of our dog training methodology.
DISTRACTIONS
What good is it for your dog to only be able to perform their obedience at home? Field trips to parks, stores, and Atlanta landmarks allow us to hone your dog’s obedience in every environment! Whether you choose our board and train or private dog training lessons , field trips are included. Finishing your dog’s training in high stimulation environments ensures that their obedience training is solidified.

Meet The Owners
Joey and Paige Morris
Joey has been in the animal training industry for three decades. He started his career by obtaining degrees in Biology and Animal Behavior. Coming out of college Joey became an exotic animal trainer, working with Orcas, Sea Lions, Wolves, and Birds of Prey, among other animals. Joey went on to become a vendor, importing and supplying K9s for Lakeland, Border Patrol, FEMA, and Police Departments. Joey puts on seminars throughout the country, teaching the theory of dog behavior, obedience training, tracking, detection, and protection.
Paige Morris grew up with German Shepherds and began training them at the age of 8. At the age of 12 she was charging money to train the dogs and humans in her city. Growing up in a small town and unsure how to enter the dog training world she joined Petco at the age of 18 as their dog trainer. Within 6 months she had achieved #2 in sales for dog training out of their 1500 stores. She was moved to their New Orleans location and became the Lead Dog Trainer in Louisiana and Mississippi, training the new dog trainer hires. Paige was then recruited by a nationally known dog training company, which she ran the New Orleans location for.
Joey and Paige met by chance, Paige wanted to continue her education as a dog trainer and had a passion for protection dogs. She drove to Tennessee to attend a seminar on decoying, where Joey was the instructor, and the rest is history. Paige moved to Georgia to be with Joey, when they came together they wanted to bring the powerful obedience that is achieved with working dogs to the pet dog training industry and OverWatch K9 Academy was born.
Joey and Paige founded OverWatch K9 Academy in Atlanta, and have started branching into different states. Along with their trainers they are honored to be impacting the daily lives of people through their dogs. As they love to say – we can’t help you love your dog anymore than you already do, but we can absolutely help you enjoy them more. And that’s what we look forward to doing.
