One of the most common congenital abnormalities in male pups is undescended testicles (sometimes just one, other times both), and in case the testicles did not drop down, the puppy will need surgery to remove them.
Other issues include umbilical hernias, heart problems, and hip dysplasia. And that’s another reason why a vet visit is crucial because your veterinarian is the only one who can diagnose and treat genetic health problems.
