They found his retained testicle under his bladder! It's important to remove testicles that haven't dropped as they can lead to cancer.

Do you know that some vets actually say its ok to keep the retained one inside!! My old neighbor had a boy who was cryptorchid and the vet neutered him and said it was completley fine that the other one was left inside. I really tried to help her and educate her but shes been seeing this vet for years and trusted him totally. I tried to tell her it may turn to cancer but she trusted her vet. I honestly didnt care for him, he was a very rude and uncaring man. He told another friend of mine that her dog is going to die soon he was a 6 year old rottie mix. He told her this for no reason at all I was at the appointment with her when he said this. It took everything I had not to tell this man off.

And for Timmy..
Where in Vineland are you? I help show yorkies for a good breeder friend of mine (acutally I look up to her like a mother) who lives in Vineland. Her name is Joan
