Oh, yes!!!  We had one and the vets closed their office and came to our place.  Put the colt to sleep and operated.  They couldn't find the retained testical for so long, the horse ended up being under for too long and died!!!!  At Thanksgiving!!

Be very careful where you take this horse for surgery.
