Ha! I thought I had such a stud at one time......I used to brag that in 29 litters, Ch. Jolly Roger ROM had never produced a missing testicle. Then, in a litter of 11 out of an Adam daughter, guess what?! One boy had one missing. So ended the bragging. It's all designed to keep you humble............
