Link: Cryptorchidism and Undescended Testicles - all you need to know.
Topics include:
The normal process and timing of testicular descent in young puppies and kittens.
How old does an undescended male animal have to be before you know its testicles will not descend and that it is a true cryptorchid?
What are the medical implications and complications of undescended testes?
What are the behavioural implications of undescended testes?
Why should you get a cryptorchid pet neutered?
Are there drugs or medications or surgical procedures available to make the retained testicle descend (i.e. cryptorchidism repair) and what are the ethical implications of this?
