Thanks everyone for the advice. Jasper was neutered at
six mon. and there was no problem at that time. I am
going to make him an appt for next month to have them
removed. I am hoping they will come out as I don't want
to have him put under anesthesia again!

if the problem doesn't resolve it's self.
