My mother has a very promising 8 month old dog puppy.
One of his balls is not fully down, it's through the
hole thingy just sitting on the edge!
It can be felt very easily and has recently started moving down
more since one of her bitches has been in season.
The other is fine but it wasnt fully down until he was 3.5
months old.
Any help/tips would be greatly welcomed please.

Hi Joanna,
You don't say what breed he is but in my breed (Lab. Ret), you only need to get concerned if they both aren't down by 10-12 months old. My boy had both his in place by 3 months, but a friend of mine's dogs didn't 'drop' fully until he was nearly a year. If you are concerned, then speak to your vet, but I'm sure its nothing to worry about.
