A 3-year-old boy in Pennsylvania who is battling eye cancer has a new best friend thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Cameras were there the moment Zachary Oppenheimer met his new puppy for the first time.

The Cocker Spaniel puppy arrived by plane from Atlanta Wednesday, and was donated by "Puppy-Spot," an organization the helps match puppies with caring families.

ABC News has learned the family has already decided on the puppy's name: Buttons.
