Caroline Spangenberg joins us from the University College Dublin School of Veterinary Medicine to discuss her research in canine cryptorchidism, answering all the questions you may have about the topic, but were too afraid to ask.

To start, Caroline explains what cryptorchidism is, how it differs from normal testicular development in dogs, and how you can know whether your puppy may be cryptorchid. She also dives into whether the condition is heritable, and what problems cryptorchidism can lead to.
