The article presents a study which examines the prevalence of mammary gland tumours in male dogs. The study was conducted on seven male dogs presented at the Indian Veterinary Research Institute Institute's Referral Veterinary Polyclinic in India. These dogs underwent surgical excision to remove all tumours. It reveals that mammary gland tumours in male dogs are less common, and the higher prevalence of these tumours is attributed to the increased mass of mammary tissue.
