Question
when do male dogs drop there testicles

Answer
Billy;
I like to see them come down by 8 weeks!
If they do not, I don't consider them stud material...
If they don't come down by 18 weeks, they are a "Crypt Orchid" and will need an operation which is costly in most areas to remove it from the abdomen, otherwise, they will get Testicular Cancer!
So, don't delay getting him checked out properly by your VET.
