My dog's testicles are suddenly much bigger. What could be wrong?

Question

I had my dog outside for a month and I finally brought him in yesterday and saw that his testicals are much bigger than they were before and I'm not why it's like that. Pet's info: Dog | Pit Bull Terrier | Male | unneutered | 60 lbs

Ouch. That does not look uncomfortable. Smoke needs to be evaluated by a veterinarian. It can wait until tomorrow if Smoke is eating well, resting normally (not more or less than normal), and is not having any vomiting or diarrhea. If he's having any of those issues, or he seems very uncomfortable, I would recommend you take him to an emergency clinic right away. I'm concerned that Smoke could have a twisted testicle (torsion), an infection, a tumor, or even some of his intestines moved within his scrotum.
