I'm having a tough time with this one. He is clearly attached to his balls and if he did not like them then he would not spend so much of his free time licking them.

It just does not seem right to me.

Itīs not a problem for your dog. I think itīs a labrador, isnīt it. My lab had a cancer problem, too and "cutting the balls off" wasnīt a big problem. The only thing you have to take care of is the food. Some dogs get fat after that. Some people told me the character maybe changes, but it didnīt.

But if you want to be sure I would ask another vet for his opinion. I did the same and it was worth it, Iīm sure. Wish you and your dog much luck.
