    Andy Cohen has reunited with his former pet dog

    The 52-year-old presenter had rescue pup Wacha rehomed earlier this year following an "incident" but he got to take the pooch for a stroll around their "old haunts" in New York over the weekend


    Andy said in an Instagram Story: "Reunited with my buddy today. He’s happy to be walking around his old haunts.”

    The 'Watch What Happens' live host reassured his followers that Wacha is "happy" and "healthy".

    He added: “God is good, Wacha’s good, life is good."

    Andy - who has a 20-month-old son, Benjamin - previously explained he had no choice but to rehome Wacha after extensive conversations with experts.

    He said: "I don't think I have to tell you guys how much I love Wacha, I mean that kind of speaks for itself, but something happened with Wacha, the day actually we were taping the Below Deck reunion. It was not great and I don't really care to go into it...

    "Basically, everyone I respect who is involved in the animal rescue field and who has known about my journey with Wacha. And it was the unanimous view that I should find a very happy home for him.

    "[My dog trainer] Brandon was like, 'Andy, if something happens, you are going to have to put him down. How will you be able to live with yourself if you kept him in the home and then something happened with you and Ben and then you had to put him down?' "

    Although he knows he made the right decision, Andy previously admitted he misses his furry friend very much.

    He said: "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. (sic)"
