Shohei Ohtani's Dog Decoy Receives Mock Visa from U.S. Embassy

The humorous document, presented by Ambassador Rahm Emanuel, jokingly grants the canine dual nationality between Japan and the United States.

  • Shohei Ohtani's dog, Decoy, has been given a mock visa by the U.S. Embassy in Japan, presented by Ambassador Rahm Emanuel.
  • The mock visa, filled with jokes, identifies Decoy as having dual nationality between Japan and the United States.
  • Decoy first gained attention when Ohtani appeared with him during the virtual MVP awards ceremony last fall.
  • Ohtani, who recently signed a record-breaking 10-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, had kept his dog's name a secret until his contract signing.
  • This is the second meeting between Ohtani and Emanuel, the first being in March 2023.
