Before I get yelled at. He is going to the vet tomorrow, luckily I already had an appt for his yearly check up. I just want to know if anyone has experienced this same thing in the past.

My dog is about a year and a half old (he is a super mutt). He was castrated at 3 months. Today he was laying on his back and I was rubbing his belly. I saw what looked like a testicle on the left side at the base of his penis. I felt it and it was a hard round lump, but it has never been there before. It was not tender or anything, but since then I have tried to look for it again so that I could inspect it again, but I have not found the lump again.

I am a nurse and I know dogs anatomy is similar to humans so I am wondering if his colon could have been impacted, or something like that.

He is getting checked out tomorrow, I just was curious if anyone had heard of this or seen it before.
Thanks Suzanne, you think being a nurse I would think of that, but it is my doggy not a patient. LOL Good possibility.
