Found these diagrams very educational of the many different parts of the male horse's sheath and penis.

Images 1&3 are a side view of what the penis looks like retracted into the sheath.
Unfortunately the drawing is not accurate. Sections b and c are one single piece. Sections a, b, and c are all attached to the underlying erectile tissue. This is easily verified by the smooth surface and lack of visible blood vessels or urethra. Sections e, f, and g are one piece with the outline of blood vessels and urethra clearly visible. It's nothing but a layer of skin and fat that turns inside out when retracted. Section d, the medial ridge or ring is the anchorage point for the outer end of that skin. Section g includes his vestigial teats.

Anytime I feel uppity about what little understanding of horses I have, or just good about it, I always remind myself that Caikgoch exists to drag myself right back into the dirt.
