Grounded, evidence-based support for complex dog behavior.

Why Virtual Training Works — Especially For Behavior Issues
Separation anxiety, compulsive behaviors, and stress-based struggles happen in your dog’s real environment — your home, your routine, your daily life. That’s why virtual work isn’t a compromise. It’s often the most effective option.
Working virtually allows me to:
-
See your dog where the behavior actually happens
-
Help you practice in real time, in real situations
-
Build plans that fit your life, not a generic setup
-
Support you consistently, without travel stress or time pressure
Virtual sessions are calm, focused, and collaborative. You’ll learn how to observe your dog, understand what they’re communicating, and apply practical steps that make sense for you — not just during sessions, but long after we’re done working together.
You don’t need to “do it perfectly.”
You just need a system that works — and support while you learn it.
Real Support For Real Behavior Challenges — From Someone Who’s Been There.
Positive Pooch Behavior was created to help guardians who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what to do next — especially when the behavior feels big.
I’m Fanna, a highly certified behavior professional with 30+ years of experience, and I specialize in some of the most misunderstood and stressful behavior challenges, including separation anxiety and compulsive disorders. I’ve worked with hundreds of dogs and their people, and I regularly present on compulsive behaviors to my training peers.
But here’s what matters most:
I don’t believe in quick fixes, rigid rules, or gatekeeping information.
I teach you clear, repeatable systems you can use for a lifetime — so you don’t feel dependent on a trainer, guessing what to do next, or afraid of getting it wrong. I give you everything I know, support you while you practice, and help you understand why things work — not just what to do.
You know your dog best. My job is to help you see what’s happening, understand it clearly, and move forward with confidence.

Answer your questions and explain what working together would look like
This conversation ensures that any training or behavior plan is appropriate, individualized, and grounded in science, not guesswork or one-size-fits-all solutions.
