Claire is mum to three fur babies of the woofing variety: Cooper 9, Albie 2 and Molly 1.
Claire is also mum to one loving and loyal adult-aged daughter, Mel.
Claire lives with her husband Bob in the North-East corner of Victoria, Australia,
surrounded by rolling green hills and cattle grazing country.
Claire’s first Children’s picture story book was inspired by the upsetting car accident
involving her six-month-old Labrador, Molly. Besides working from home full-time in a customer service role, Claire takes pleasure in living a simple life, enjoying a fulfilling relationship with her fur babies, relaxing, and embracing life with her hubby!
