14 Diseases of the Genital Organs only in the dog, amongst domestic animals, that the prostate gland assumes pathologic importance. Cowper's glands are present in solipeds, ruminants, and the cat. They lie on either side of the urethra in the perineal region above the ischial arch. They have little or no known pathologic importance. The glands are absent in the dog. 3. The Penis The penis of domestic animals is normally completely hidden, when at rest, within the sheath, and the glans penis has a second covering, the prepuce.

In solipeds and carnivora, the retractor muscle is closely applied throughout its length to the ventral side of the penis, so that the length of the retractor muscle from the tuber ischii to its penial insertion is identical with the length of the penis from the ischial notch to the muscular insertion. In ruminants and swine, the muscle is not closely applied to the ventrum of the penis but passes directly across the postero-inferior mouth of the curvature of that organ without following its course so that the length of the muscle is only about one-half that of the penis from the ischial notch to the muscular insertion.
