A two year and six months old pug was presented to the clinics of Department of Veterinary Gynaecology and Obstetrics, Veterinary College, Bengaluru with a complaint of swelling in the ventral abdomen region, lateral to penis. On physical examination and ultrasonography the condition was diagnosed to be ectopic testis or unilateral cryptorchidism.
