Huge help for first-year anatomy lab

I wish I'd bought this book before I started vet school! It's a huge help when you're doing your first in-depth dog dissection, because you can get an idea of what things are *supposed* to look like before you start accidentally cutting them up. Beats the heck out of Little Miller's and its b & w line drawings.

Great Veterinary Student Book

A very good book for veterinary students to prepare for dissections and review material prior to examinations.

Extremely valuable learning tool. Highly Recommended!

I am a currently a second-year veterinary student working as a teaching assistant for the first-year anatomy class. This book has served as an invaluable source of information to me. The color photographs supplemented by explanatory diagrams make this the best reference book I have found available on canine/feline anatomy. Highly recommended for first year veterinary students.
