I bought a 3yo Connemara gelding from Ireland who arrived last week from a dealer I trust (still say that with caution!)... he is the loveliest, sweetest boy. However he appears to have a testicle! Dealer adamant he didn’t have it when he left. I had him vetted in March and no reporting a of said “lump”.
Vet coming to examine him on Tuesday. All things have gone through my mind including tissue herniation (he cantered into a fence on the first day), thought maybe fluid build up...
Yesterday I went up and lump was nowhere to be seen, it was freezing and windy as hell. So if it wasn’t a testicle would a normal lump retract in the same manner?!! The vet who vetted him would not have been looking for a testicle and given that it was March at the time...
help! Any ideas what is going on?! I don’t suppose my insurance will cover this either!
