1 :
If they are "neutered", they cannot get testicular cancer because there are NO testicles. They can still get prostate cancer, but the chances are less.
2 :
Without testicles they cannot get testicular cancer (neutering removes both testicles). Neutered males can still get Prostate cancer, but the chances are slim to none.
3 :
As the others have pointed out, a dog can not get testicular cancer if he doesn't have testicles. So no, there is absolutely NO chance that a neutered dog could possibly have testicular cancer. Neutered dogs do still have a prostate and therefor CAN develop prostate cancer. However, it is very rare in neutered dogs.
4 :
A dog loses his testiculars when he's neutered, so he can't get testicular cancer. He can get prostate cancer, but the risk is much lower. Yes, I said testiculars. It's a Jeff Foxworthy thing.
5 :
It cant get testicular cancer because it doesn't have any testicles. and it greatly cuts down on the risk of getting prostate cancer
