Solo is 8 weeks and his testicles still haven't dropped. Most dogs drop them around 6 weeks, but they can take up to 12 weeks and some dogs will even take up to 18 months. Marla has never had a pup take this long..
So I was reading about cryptorchid (no testicled) pups, and apparently a bitch who is carrying a litter with one or more crypto males will sometimes absorb all of the females in the litter.
What if he really IS a crypto and Visa really DID absorb the rest of the litter? Visa doesn't have any cryptorchidism in her background that I know of, but Karma has a dog four generations back from a kennel that did have a bit of a problem with producing crypto dogs...It IS four generations back though...
I'll wait till he's 12 weeks, and then I guess we'll get a better idea. The vet says they are in there, she can feel them. I can't feel anything, but I read to massage the area.
