Lisa Clifton-Bumpass is a dog trainer in transition. She spent 10 years developing her career in teaching group dog training classes, private consultations and public speaking for shelters and rescue groups. Facing career burn out, Lisa happened to see the fruit bat training sessions at the Oakland Zoo and immediately fell in love with the program. She signed up to volunteer in the animal management division for the Zoo. The zoo staff soon learned that she was a trainer and Lisa was put to work helping in the training and behavior modification of several different species. In the past three years, Lisa has gone from pushing a broom and dicing food in the kitchen to coaching and training of several species. Lisa’s background allows her to consult on many levels of animal training, training mechanics, behavior management and research projects. Additionally, Lisa served on the Board of Directors for the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, is the Chair for the CCPDT Examination Development Committee and is a member of the Board of Advisors for Animal Behavior Professionals.
