The proper term for what you're seeing is the bulbus glandis. They appear when excited..they are very important for breeding and helping to tie with the female, but they are not the testicles and remain after neutering. Your dog was properly neutered (although if you don't trust the vet you should change anyway). No worries they should be there and are perfectly normal

No it actually gets sucked up inside Sometimes a small flap of skin will remain where the sac was, depending on the vet doing the procedure.

What is an Intact male cat?

An un-castrated or un-neutered male cat is known as being intact. In other words, they still have their testicles which enable them to breed female cats.


How do you tell if a cat has been neutered?

After neutering, a male cat will no longer have testicles. He may still retain the furry pouch (called the scrotum) where the testicles once were, but it will be empty.


Do cats still have their testicles after being neutered?

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I think there are two different kinds of neutering: one where the cat keeps his testicles, and one where he doesn't. The male cat that I had when I was growing up still had his testicles, even though he was neutered. That cat died, and four years ago, when I graduated college and settled into my own apartment, I got two cats from a shelter: an adult male, and a female kitten. The adult male had already been neutered by the time I got him. And he does not have his testicles. I was not involved with the neutering of either of those male cats: the one I have now was already neutered when I got him, and my parents took care of the neutering of the other one, since I was a kid. So, I know there are two different kinds of neutering procedures, but I don't know much more than that, unfortunately.


How can you tell if a male cat is neutered?

A male cat will no longer have testicles. He may still retain the furry pouch (called the scrotum) where the testicles once were, but it will be empty and much reduced in size compared to an intact male cat. Bear in mind if your cat has just been neutered the testicles still may be visible. It takes around 6 weeks for the hormones to calm down, so the testicles will shrink over this period. A male cat has a larger gap between the anus and penis, whereas a female cat's vulva is situated closer to the anus.


Can a male cat spray after being neutered?

technically they still can. however, after he has been neutered his desire or urge to spray goes way down. Typically neutering will help to stop the spraying. However, a cat that has been neutered before reaching sexual maturity (around six months old), it is very unlikely the cat will ever start spraying.

What if your dog has one ball after being neutered is that normal?

If it really is one of the testicles, then it isn't normal. that would be a failed neutering. The dog would still have all the urges of an intact dog, and still be able to father puppies.

Is it normal for your West Highland White Terrier to act as if he's courting your Maltese even if he is neutered?

As my vet put it to me when I called him in a panic after observing my neutered Westie courting my girl Westie, "We operated on his testicles, not his brain". So, indeed, a male will still have the instinct even if he doesn't have all of the equipment.

Why does your cat still spray when he has been neutered?

My guess would be your cat was neutered relatively late in life, after he learned sexual behaviors such as spraying or caterwauling. If a tom cat is neutered prior to learning these behaviors, they tend to not express them. However, once a tom cat has learned these behaviors, even in the absence of testosterone from testicles they will still express the behaviors. It is also possible that a small portion of testicle was left during the surgery, although this is extremely rare.

Can a miniature dog with no testicles still have a baby?

A dog must be sexually mature to create offspring. If this dog has been neutered, then they will not be able to have puppies. Your dog may however, just be too young to have puppies yet.
