I have also never heard of any connection between retained testicles and vaccinations. Testicles should be down in scrotum within the first few weeks of the puppy's life - long time before the first vaccination. I have vaccinated every puppy I have ever bred at 6 weeks (that is the norm here) and let them go to their new homes at about 9 weeks. None of them have ever retracted their testes in these few weeks. However, one did so later on, and they had to be surgically removed when he was 12 months old. Unfortunately, the people did not tell me until after - I would have tried to bring them down, and hopefully saved the dog from an invasive op.jok said:I didn't know that innoculating early could cause testicle retention. I don't think it's just a case of people just wanting to show off their pups as soon as possible. I personally think it's important for socialisation purposes that a pup is out and about before it gets too old. Not everyone has other dogs at home. Also, what's the chance of this happening, most people will have the pup vaccinated early and most don't end up with a retained testicle. Just putting another view across. :- "

I have heard of pups pulling in there testicles if severely stressed (like being shipped a long distance), or if hit in the area.
In any case I would try to bring a testicle down manually whenever possible to avoid future problems.
