Magen spent a decade as a college professor and test prep teacher and tutor. She also tutored students while in high school and undergrad. She loves coaching and teaching humans as much as she loves working with dogs, which is vital since most of dog training is training humans to train their own dogs.
Magen is a member of The Pet Professional Guild and is a Force-Free and LIMA compliant trainer. She is also Pet CPR and First Aid Certified!
Magen’s first dog training experience was in the mid 1990s when she was in her early teens. Her family became puppy raisers for future service dogs for the blind. Magen attended training classes with the future service dog, was actively involved in training outside of classes, and brought him to school with her.

Magen currently has two dogs, who are very different from each other and have helped her grow substantially as a trainer. Her oldest dog is
