My 7-month-old Lab has red testicles and keeps licking them. Why?

Question

I have 7 month old black Labrador, his testicles seem very red from this morning, there is no swelling neither local rise in temperature. No discharge but when touched he starts to lick the area. What is happening to him? Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | unneutered | 7 months and 17 days old | 75 lbs

Many dogs develop redness in the testicles, it's not always considered to be an issue but it could sometimes be a sign of infection or allergic reaction. you should monitor it for a few days, if the problem does not resolve you should probably get it checked by your vet. having him neutered will also solve the problem.
