Bc of this, PLEASE make sure you go home w/ plenty of pain meds for the abdominal surgery - AND a plan for what to do if pain is not managed properly.
I actually got to see a neuter where one testicle had not dropped and I felt so bad for my vet because it was a 5 pound Pom puppy and she was trying so hard to find it before having to cut him open to search for it.
