Red and inflamed dog testicles post-grooming might be due to irritation or allergic reaction to grooming products. Ensure the groomer uses hypoallergenic and pet-safe products. Additionally, check if the shaving was too close or if there's any nick or cut. Applying a veterinary-recommended soothing ointment can help reduce inflammation. If the condition persists, consult a veterinarian for professional assessment and treatment.
