Editor's note: This is a weekly series called "Pet of the Week" where we feature a companion up for adoption from Dakota County animal rescues.

Bud is a handsome, one-year-old, yellow lab who loves everyone he meets.

He is the perfect size, only 45 pounds, and will make an amazing family dog.

He is with a 501(c)3 rescue and has been neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested and has a HomeAgain microchip. 

He is wonderful with other dogs and has lived peacefully with cats. He adores kids of all ages.
