Andy Cohen Confirms Wacha Is Living with a New Family

Andy Cohen took to Instagram on Friday (May 29) to confirm that his longtime pet, Wacha, is living in a new "permanent home with his second family."

The Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host opened up about why Wacha had to move in with a new family in an emotional and lengthy Instagram post along with a video of him and his beloved pup.

"I’ve put off sharing this news as long as I could. As you may know, Wacha is my first baby, my beautiful rescue puppy. He is my pride and joy. When he came into my life, my world changed. Over the nearly seven years that I’ve been blessed to have Wacha in my life, we have worked to address some occasional random signs of aggression. No effort was spared in the attempt to help Wacha feel adjusted. After an incident a few months ago, numerous professionals led me to the conclusion that my home is simply not a good place for him. Keeping him here could be catastrophic for Ben and worse for Wacha. The good news is that he now has a permanent home with his second family, in the place he lived every single time I went out of town," Andy wrote.

Andy confirmed back in April that his rescue dog was spending time in Connecticut.

Andy continued in his Instagram post on Friday, "He is thriving. We still see each other, but a piece of my heart is gone. I miss his weight on top of me first thing in the morning. I miss him waiting for me in front of the shower. And I miss the sound of his paws on the floor when I come home. I am not the same person I was when I got him. My dog changed me. He opened me up to love.. to caring… and ultimately to having a family. When I think of him - let’s be honest, when don’t I think of him - it’s with the clarity that we were meant to come into each other’s lives exactly when we did, and that he’s happy, which gives me peace of mind. We did rescue each other. Thank you, Wacha."
