Meet Cheddar — the bold, bouncy, and absolutely breathtaking pup! This handsome boy came into rescue with his mom and 4 littermates (Honey, Potato, Onion, and Salsa), from a shelter in Kentucky. They are Pyr and Border Collie mixes born on February 18, 2026. As the second largest male in the litter, Cheddar carries himself with a presence that matches his striking good looks. And speaking of looks — this boy is truly one of a kind! He is the most colorful pup of the bunch, sporting a full mask, gorgeous leopard-like spots scattered all over his body, and an adorable ring of spots encircling his belly. Simply put, Cheddar is a walking work of art! But Cheddar isn't just a pretty face — this little guy has personality in spades! He is the definition of confidence, always the first one to perk up and investigate whenever something new and exciting is happening. Curious, brave, and endlessly entertaining, Cheddar leads the charge while his siblings are still wondering what's going on. At the same time, he has an independent streak, and you'll often find him slipping away from the group to enjoy a little quiet time all to himself — a pup who knows how to recharge! When it's playtime, Cheddar goes ALL in! He is absolutely wild for his toys — grabbing them up, carrying them around with pride, and bouncing through life like the happiest pup on the planet. And after all that hard playing? He naps just as hard! His ideal home will have a 5-foot securely fenced yard for him to play in, as well as a canine sibling to show him the ropes. Cheddar is the perfect mix of adventurous, independent, and joyful — and he is ready to bring all of that sunshine into his forever home!
