Andy Cohen Has Rehomed Wacha, His Dog Of 7 Years

If I had gone with the headline: “Andy Cohen throws an angry bitch out of his house” you might think I was talking about one of the frozen-faced trophy mannequins in his dingy Housewives harem. Instead, I’m talking about Wacha, the adorable beagle-foxhound Andy has owned for the past 7 years. That’s right, despite falling in love with the pooch after seeing his photo on a pet adoption website back in 2013, Andy has sent Wacha to live in a better place––I mean, 7 years in captivity with Andy Cohen? I’m surprised the dog lasted 7 minutes!

Us Weekly is reporting that Andy took to Instagram to share the horrible news that he decided to remove Wacha from his home for the safety of his 15-month-old son, Benjamin. The reason being that Wacha had been displaying “aggressive” behavior. Ya, no shit, Andy. You of all people should know that when a younger and cuter piece enters the picture, OG bitches are going to get jealous.

I’ve been preaching for years that kids ruin everything. But this? We should have listened to Tituss Burgess! Andy explained in a long Instagram post why Benjamin and Wacha just could not continue to exist together in the same house (seriously, the Housewives parallels are everywhere in this story):

“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.”

“Keeping him here could be catastrophic for Ben and worse for Wacha,”

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. 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.

Andy makes sure to note that Wacha is “thriving” in his new home.

You may have said to yourself, “well, Andy probably did the right thing…”, before you realize that you’re agreeing with Andy Cohen on something! But hopefully, Wacha is happy in his new home, and the good news for him is that he can FaceTime with Uncle Anderson without Andy trying to butt in on the convo!
