Craig Taylor

I am a writer who lives on an 8-acre homestead with a menagerie and a family.

My life hasn’t been without a dog companion since childhood. Currently my animals are all rescue animals that need a home, which has given me experience with sheep, chickens, goats, cows, cats, dogs, and other animals as well.
