If they are "neutered", they cannot get testicular cancer because there are NO testicles. They can still get prostate cancer, but the chances are less.

As the others have pointed out, a dog can not get testicular cancer if he doesn't have testicles. So no, there is absolutely NO chance that a neutered dog could possibly have testicular cancer. Neutered dogs do still have a prostate and therefor CAN develop prostate cancer. However, it is very rare in neutered dogs.

A dog loses his testiculars when he's neutered, so he can't get testicular cancer. He can get prostate cancer, but the risk is much lower.
Yes, I said testiculars. It's a Jeff Foxworthy thing.

Without testicles they cannot get testicular cancer (neutering removes both testicles). Neutered males can still get Prostate cancer, but the chances are slim to none.

It cant get testicular cancer because it doesn't have any testicles. and it greatly cuts down on the risk of getting prostate cancer.
