TRAINER
Veronika Scheff
Veronika was born in Russia and fell in love with dogs at the young age of 5, when her grandmother harnessed their family German Shepherd to a sleigh. Unfortunately by the time she turned 8 her family fell apart and she ended up in an orphanage. In March of 2005 she got adopted by a kind American family and was brought to live with them in Georgia. Veronika’s entire world changed but her love for animals, especially dogs, only grew with time. As a teenager Veronika asked for a dog and received a Border Collie mix named Barney, who she thought of as her best friend. She taught him basic commands which she learned from watching dog training shows on tv. She also signed up for agility classes to continue to learn. In 2015 Veronika got her first job at Pikes Nursery where she worked hard and advanced into managing her own department. She felt something was missing, so in 2017 she signed up at Taking the Lead K9 Training for a K9 Trainer Course. with her lab mix named Chaska. A year later, she acquired a Belgian malinois named Zaika who she took to ADZ K9 for protection training sessions. Almost two years later she fell in love with another Belgian malinois puppy that led her to OverWatch K9, where she plans to continue to grow as a dog trainer.

TRAINER
Amanda Reid
Amanda has had a passion for animals for as long as she could remember starting with a poodle mix, Misty, that her dad rescued off the side of the highway. Since then she has rescued several animals in her adult life including a bonded pair of ferrets, a bearded dragon named Peaches, and her heart-dog, Sugar. Her journey with OverWatch K9 Academy began when her Pitbull, Sugar, completed the Advanced Board and Train program and opened the door for Amanda to communicate and connect with Sugar on a much deeper level. Amanda has also spent the last 16 years working in customer service where she found a joy in working with people, building lasting relationships with her clients. Presented with an opportunity to bring her love of dogs and love for people together through training, Amanda left her career and joined the OverWatch K9 Academy family to change lives through opening the lines of communication between owners and their dogs.
