I am sorry it did not work out but I am sure if you had got him he would have adapted just fine. I got my first yorkie, Dixie, when she was 7 months old. She was so attached to her previous owner that it took her a couple of weeks to really bond with us. After that she became my little shadow and the love of my life. Dixie lived to be over 16 years old and I still really miss her.
Also, over the years I have got other older dogs and they all adapted just fine.
Good luck on your search.
