testicles not decended - Page 2

 I figure if you paid money for the dog, then you should get what you paid for. Who wants to have to pay for surgery when they don't have to ? Send the dog back, get your money and get a different puppy that you won't have to sit around HOPING that the ball will drop. Too many people wait, get attached, and the dog stays, and they just lose their money, AND have to pay to fix the dog.

My last post absolutely reads all kinds of wrong, and my early onset alzheimers is preventing me from remembering what it was I was trying to say. : )

Jeff,

I have the feeling that the OP is already VERY attached based on her other thread. Giving the pup back is the most reasonable "intellectual" choice, but I think the average person gets attached very quickly and emotionally is unable to part with a pup once they bring it into the family.

And you are right about the cost because if the testicle is not palpable the cost can be considerably more than the average neutering procedure.  It can also be more risky.

Not that anyone asked, but if I were the breeder and the new owner still wanted the puppy I would give her a nice discount and require the puppy to be neutered at maturity.  I am not saying the OP is not responsible, but s**t happens.... 

I'm still hoping this pup drops his testicle and all of this discussion is for nothing!
