Owner Sheryl McDonald and husband Tom Peshock found that perfect spot in the country to pursue their love of Collies. Soon friends and students from Sheryl's training classes were asking if their dogs could please stay at the "doggy camp" while they were on vacation. This was the inspiration behind Shertom Boarding Kennels where we have been boarding dogs since 1993.

Sheryl, is a certified dog trainer through Capitol Dog Training Club of Austin. She's been training dogs for 30 years in obedience, agility and herding and dog carting.

Sheryl and Tom are members both together or individually in the following organizations:

Member of: Texas Hill Country Stock Dog Association American Herding Breed Association Collie Club of America American Working Collie Association Capitol Dog Training Club of Austin Texas Herding Association
