Two undescended testicles in a Pom

The Pom came in for vaccination. He is the daughter's dog but she had given him to the 68-year-old mother to take care as she had married and moved out. 

The mother had consulted me some 30 years ago and  said: "You are still working,"  
"It is better to work than stay at home, eat, watch TV and sleep all day," I said. "Are you still working?" She is working in the Airport too. " "Do you have to take medication for high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol?" I asked this slim woman with grey hairs. "No, not at all," she replied. I sent her back to her home in Toa Payoh Lor 8,  as she said it was difficult to get a taxi.  

"I can find a home for him if you don't want him," I said to the mother. But the mum would not part with the dog.  In an empty nest, the dog is the best companion for the elderly.

The one-year-old had 2 undescended testicles and I advised neutering as they are prone to develop cancer. She said she would ask her daughter who had reminded her to get the dog vaccinated. That was why she came.
