If they haven't dropped by now, they are most likely not going to on their own. It's called Cryptorchidism and it is genetic. The "testicles' you thought you saw when he was arroused were most likely not testicles at all but the bulb of the penis that swells when they start to have an erection. You even more so want to neuter a cryptorchid dog because they have 10times the chance of developing cancer with their testicles trapped inside of their abdomen. Also, a cryptorchid is not fertile because the the testicle being in the abdomen causes the sperm to be in an environment that is too hot for it to be viable. You would not want to breed a cryptorchid dog if possible either because it is genetic and something you don't want to pass on in the lines...
