If one of my males did not have testicles that could be massaged in place by 4 to 6 months, I would not keep him...but we all have our ways of doing this...and "a hit or miss, maybe I will or maybe I won't stud" is not worth the unreliableness to me....if someone get/got a stud potential from me, I guarantee testicles at 4/5 months or you can have you money back....too many breeder sell puppies with no clue as to what they are selling... |
thank you, I am feeling the same way.. I tried to tell the breeder that I had two in heat, and no interest what so ever.. and she is kinda thinking he will breed without testes.. never heard of that.. and then she says they will drop.. call me stupid.. I am no pro by any means.. but I am wondering and questioning.. thus asking for help.. I am not saying I wanted to breed with him, I was not expecting that.. but like you.. he should show some kind of interest.. and yet breeder tells me omg he is just a baby.. I am feeling she is thinking what am I thinking that she should be dropped by now.. or at least be able to feel them, not me and not the two vets I took him to.. I tell her, she tells me basically that I have nothing to worry about.. I was born in the night, but it was not last night. thanks
