It wasn't that big of deal and the procedure only cost a little more than a normal neuter. I was told that the testicles have more of a chance of getting a cancerous tumor if you leave them undescended. Good Luck!! |
My vet said the exact same thing. She could only feel one of Tucker's because he had an inguinal hernia, but once they got started on his neutering they found both.
