Meet Onigiri, a delightful 9-year-old pup who is ready to steal some hearts! 🎉 Having spent most of his life with one family, he felt secure and loved—until a sudden twist of fate left him looking for a new home in his golden years. Can you imagine the shock? 😢 At first, this gentle soul found himself a bit anxious, particularly around men, feeling a little lost in a world that seemed to have changed overnight. But oh, how times have changed! After a month in a nurturing foster home, Onigiri has transformed into the playful companion we all know he can be. He now actively seeks out people and relishes companionship like never before! With a big, soft heart, he absolutely adores children and showers them with affection. Onigiri isn’t just a dog; he’s a cuddle enthusiast and a loyal friend.🤗 Let’s not forget his social side—Onigiri is a friendly fella who gets along splendidly with other dogs and cats. 🐾 Yes, you heard that right — he’s the perfect addition to a multi-pet household! And don't let his senior status fool you! Onigiri still has a vibrant spirit and loves a good time, making him just as playful and joyous as any young pup out there. 🏃‍♂️ It’s time for Onigiri to find the forever family he deserves, someone who will treasure him through all his best years ahead. He’s currently fostered in East Islip, NY, and he’s available for both local and out-of-state adoption! Just make sure you've got a plan to come meet this lovely guy or we can even bring him to NYC for approved adopters.❤️ To embark on this beautiful journey of adoption, please *apply through the Buddy App* today! Your new best friend is waiting for you!
