Tuck is 7 months old. My vet wants to wait until he is a year, and if it doesn't drop by then - then they'll operate. She also warned me about testiculare cancer. I'm going to wait it out for a few more months, but if nothing happens by then - we'll have the surgery. I just want to avoid the more complicated procedure if at all possible. Thanks!!
