Plain-English summary
A 1-year-old male West Highland White Terrier was brought in for unusual urination issues. The veterinarian diagnosed him with a condition called hypospadias, where the urinary opening is not in the correct location. The dog underwent surgery to correct this problem. After the procedure, he was able to urinate normally, and his condition improved significantly.
