ABOUT ME
My journey
Jenya Frolova
I had started reading about dogs long before I got Dias, my first dog. I wanted to do everything perfectly and followed all the training advice I could find. After visiting several dog schools and completing a few online courses, Dias was able to give a paw, roll over and boop my hand, but he was also lunging at other dogs and people out of insecurity.
For 2 years I’ve been trying to fix him instead of focusing on us as a team. We have made astonishing progress, and this journey and experience have let me to this project. The mission of BOOPCAMP is to help you build harmonious relationships with your dog and become confident in your everyday life.

* It doesn't mean that I fully agree, recommend or follow their training methods 100%.
These are all practicing dog trainers and dog behaviour experts with extensive expertise. I have either worked with them, or attended their courses and workshops.
My experience
In 2021 I started working for Pup Affair (Zürich, Switzerland). I was involved both in daycare and dog training. I started conducting my first private and group lessons there.
BOOPCAMP was founded in 2023 when I decided to start my own project, focusing on home visits and private sessions. I believe that this is the best way to help my students achieve the results that will last not only in dog school, but also in their everyday lives.
As a dog owner, I’ve visited 14 different dog trainers and completed several online training programs. I use a variety of methods that I have mastered during my education and through practical experience. Nevertheless, I’m still learning from my colleagues and of course, from Dias, who's been my best mentor so far.
