Guide to the Dissection of the Dog

by Malcolm E. Miller, Howard E. Evans, Alexander deLahunta

This practical guide facilitates a thorough dissection of the dog to learn basic mammalian structure and specific canine features. Emphasizing anatomical knowledge, each chapter presents self-contained guidance on the dissection of a specific body part, allowing the reader to perform these dissections in any sequence preferred. Descriptions are based on the dissection of embalmed, arterially injected adult dogs of mixed breeds, and the anatomical terms used in the book come from the Nomina Anatmica Veterinaria.

Very annoying book that became my life in vet school. The content was good but the pictures don't always line up with the descriptions by SEVERAL pages, and there's no glossary, which I think would be very helpful. It was sufficient to what I needed to get done and one of the only textbooks I've truly read cover to cover. Good riddance to this book but good luck to anyone using it

Poorly arranged, illustrations were confusing and were difficult to match to the cadaver. Would not recommend as a dissection atlas for veterinary school.

Some of the diagrams could have been better; found a few mistakes; but I wouldn't have made it through anatomy without it.

Little Miller's you are infuriating and exasperating and amazing. Thank you for getting me through Anatomy.

Some good diagrams, not the best at explaining and the terms never align with the pictures. But it's 10x better than reading Dyce.
