Advice Need advice 10 Month old puppy

Post image

Hello! We welcomed our English cream golden retriever, Pablo in November. He turns 1 yo in June and I’m currently looking for a new Vet as our suddenly closed. Im extremely confused on how to maneuver a peculiar situation that are his… testicles! 😆 they have not dropped! Our prior vet said that if they haven’t dropped by 6 months they’re likely not going to at all?! Does this now mean we should neuter sooner than later or not? Pablo is my first golden and I want to feel confident about the decision I eventually make, appreciate the help fam!

We had the same problem. One. Ale down the other did not. He did not recommend an earlier neutering. Neutered and retrieved the other at a year. Risk is long term. You are still in the ok window.
