Intended for first year veterinary students, this textbook introduces the anatomy of dogs and walks through the dissection of non-embalmed canine carcasses. Black and white drawings illustrate the bones, muscles, joints, and nerves located in a dog's head, trunk, and limbs; and the structures that comprise its respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and cardiovascular systems.
