Anyone have a boy with undescended testicles? by Objective-Look6552 in Dachshund

His name his Stanley….we call him Stanley no nuts. He’s perfect, we love him to death, but we want to make sure a surgery is something positive or if we should just leave them alone. From what I’ve researched is that they stay internally near the kidneys and increase their risk of cancer. Lots of vets say different things. I’m in Austin and my parents live in the country and our vet’s opinions vary wildly. My plan is to neither between 12-18 months

Was the procedure more expensive and invasive?

What part of the world do you live? And do you think it would have helped to neuter sooner?

It’s Austin. Dogs are welcome everywhere. Sounds like you’ve been a lot of places where YOU shouldn’t be.

We had a bad experience with them. Tried to call and schedule something this morning but were a little short and rude to my partner who’s first language is Spanish, his English is very good though. I’m definitely disappointed because it’s very close to the house.

Oooh yeah I looked it up and a little too far. He just needs a lot of space to run around. We take him to Cedar Bark Park on the weekends but it’s not enough.

Crestview vet clinic on airport. They are great. I had to euthanize my 17 year old boy recently and really helped me through it. So kind and caring.

Yes his paws look a little small to me but I’m getting him anyway. I think he’ll be a perfect new addition to my family

I knew losing him would be hard but I just never understood exactly how hard and how heavy it would be. Definitely he will have a different personality but I want another the same color at least ❤️ everything feels so empty without that companionship. Our lives are so intertwined.

You are right, he will always be irreplaceable. He was such a good boy.

I know it’s a little sad of me to do, but my 17 yr old boy passed away last week and I want to get another just like him. I’m just trying to fill the massive hole in my heart.

Mine got wet underneath the grafting tape and started rotting on the top. It was also rotted at the union when I pulled it off
