Default Yorkie testicles

Hi Everyone,

New Yorkie owner here-this is my first time posting. My Ziggy has been off all week. He is 9 lbs (I know-a giant!) at 5 months and has been off his food and drink all week; doesn't even want his treats. He is not overweight, just a very big Yorkie-already bigger than his mother and father. Today he has had a few episodes where he has been shaking. He wants to sleep all day and night. Otherwise, he is still very playful and likes to go for long walks-today we did 7 km. He has had all his shots and vet checks and was just checked out at the vet last week.

I noticed yesterday that he now has testicles-surprise!!. The skin over them is quite purple but he doesn't seem to be in pain. Is this colouration normal for Yorkies? Call me naiive but I don't know about this stuff.

Just looking for your thoughts on what you think might be up with him. Does teething cause these symptoms?

TIA,

Charlene in NS
