How old should my chihuahua be for his testicles to drop he will be 1 yr next month and hasnt dropped yet

Answer #1

they should have dropped by now, has he been to the vet? Is he due for his yearly exam, you need to speak to the vet, He should have been neutered by now and if he is (spelling) cryptorchid (meaning testies are in the abdomen) this can cause serious health problems, you need to have a good converstaiton with your vet, you should have already been about to firmly squeeze the scotum and feel the testicals that would feel like two little peas, can you feel either one of them? Use you thumb and finger?

Answer #2

Surprisingly, many dogs don’t drop until they’re a year old, however, it’s neither common or normal, so you really should have him checked over by a vet.
