I bought a little girl a few years ago that had one, and i did not know it until i took her to the vet to be checked, he reccomended her being spayed as inguinal hernia's are hereditary, her breeder gave no relief

| Welcome to YT. I do not know anything about them as far as treatment but my Hot Rod had had a surgery for this prior to use getting him. He was totally fine.

| It's a simple surgery. What did you need to know about it?

| I forgot to add that they can disappear by spaying age, but not always. The dr can fix it during the spay. If left unrepaired, there is a risk of it becoming strangulated.

| Not only the puppies but the parents of the puppies also need to be spay/neutered and not breed again. Good luck.

| She isn't my breeding so I have no control over either breeder I doubt if the stud owner will neuter her boy. |
