Good choice 4 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

Great product! I would suggest these to anyone who is learning carnivore anatomy. The only downfall is that I noticed not everything is labeled on the flash cards. For example, the stifle joint, although there are two separate cards for this topic, the lateral/medial femoropatellar ligament is not labeled. Neither is the cranial fibular ligament, but the caudal fibulgar ligament IS labeled?? Not sure about the reasoning for that. Also, if you are a veterinary student, the number of vertebrae is listed for the cat, dog, human, and horse - but the pig and ruminant is left out.

These cards have a lot of information and are VERY helpful, but they are still lacking information. However, just get your pen out and label what is missing by yourself! I added all sorts of notes to these flashcards and it has been a tremendous help.

I would suggest these to anyone - they are far easier (and lighter!) to carry around in your bag instead of a heavy anatomy book.

Editorial Review:

The DOG ANATOMY flash cards are a comprehensive reference tool covering the skeletal system, muscular system, joints & ligaments, and the ten major organ systems of the canine anatomy.

This book is great if you have time to sit down and have a good read of it. It is not useful for quick checking of anatomy, yet this is what an atlas is for. If you take the time to read sections entirely it gives you a great understanding of the "big picture" and explains functional anatomy well.

Anatomy book for veterinary school 4 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

Interesting book. Some of the reading is kind of long and tedious but it does teach you a lot about almost every type of animal. This was a required textbook for my gross anatomy class.

To be used with other vet anatomy books 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

At first I found this book difficult to appreciate and get into - but once I did I found that it was extremely useful. There aren't too many other vet anatomy textbooks with as much detail. However, the text can be dull and there are only a limited number of color photos. So I would recommend using this book along with other vet anatomy textbooks which provide better pictures.

Editorial Review:

This clinically-oriented text covers the anatomy of all major species of domestic animals. It provides the general knowledge of mammalian structure that is crucial to the understanding of the other basic sciences, as well as the more detailed information that is directly applicable to the practice of veterinary medicine. Discussing the various body systems, it then offers a working knowledge of them by addressing the regional anatomy of a particular species or group of species.

• Disease content is presented in a logical case study format with three distinct parts:
• Description of the disorder
• Neuroanatomic diagnosis (including how it was determined, the differential diagnosis, and any available ancillary data)
• Course of the disease (providing final clinical or necropsy diagnosis and a brief discussion of the syndrome)

• More than 600 full-color photographs and line drawings, plus approximately 150 high-quality radiographs, visually reinforce key concepts and assist in reaching accurate diagnoses.
• The book comes with free access to 370 video clips on Cornell University's website that directly correlate to the case studies throughout the book and clearly demonstrate nearly every recognized neurologic disorder.
• High-quality MR images of the brain are presented alongside correlating stained transverse sections for in-depth study and comparison.
• Vivid photos of gross and microscopic lesions clearly illustrate the pathology of many of the disorders presented in the book.

Beautiful pictures with clear information. This book is required for the Comparative Anatomy class that I am taking. I would highly recomend this book for any vet tech students suffering from information overload. Great help in understanding the basics.

A Colouring Atlas of Dog Anatomy 5 out of 5 stars.

I am extremely happy with the purchase of this particular book. As a student of Animal Bowen Therapy, I require information that is explanatory and easy to understand. This book is all of that and more. The pictures are simple and it is very easy to see the different aspects of the anatomy of a dog.
I received the book in wonderful timing and as always, found the transaction to be easy and non fuss. I will continue to shop for my books this way as it is 9 times out of 10 the cheapest and best way to do it.

Great tool for Vet Tech students! 5 out of 5 stars.
16 of 17 people found this review helpful.

I am a Vet Tech student. These flash cards are a great resource for Anatomy & Physiology labs. Not only are the parts clearly labeled with the common names of structures, but the reverse side of each card has an unlabeled version of the same sketch so you can drill yourself. I only wish I had discovered these earlier in my studies! Used them today in a dissection lab and my lab mates all wanted to know where I got them. This is definitely a great addition to the study arsenal and at a very reasonable price.

Fantastic education tool for the price! 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I'm a surgical nurse for a large 24 hour Veterinary hospital dealing primarily in orthopedics and wanted to have something quick and easy to brush up on my dog and cat anatomy. I found these flashcards to be an easy and affordable way of getting back to basics. I have several expensive nursing books that I could have cracked open - tagging certain chapters and re-reading long-winded descriptions etc but these simple and inexpensive cards are just as effective and much quicker. They're perfect for beginners and those that just want to brush up.

The CAT ANATOMY flash cards are a comprehensive reference tool covering the skeletal system, muscular system, joints & ligaments, and the ten major organ systems of the feline anatomy.

Comprehensive canine anatomy textbook for the veterinary student 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

This book is a comprehensive guide to canine anatomy for the veterinary student. It contains excellent illustrations and written descriptions of the location and anatomical significance of the bones, muscles, nerves and vessels. Although very detailed, the layout is logical and easy to use, with a nice balance of illustrations, radiographs and written descriptions. It also describes the embryological derivation for different tissues and overall, perfectly complements anatomy lectures and practicals. It has been very helpful for the locomotor apparatus and cranial anatomy. The detail contained within this book make it ideal for any student planning a career in small animal practice.

This book is for anyone who understands medical terminology and wants to know in depth information on dogs.
If you are looking for an easy guide this book is not for you.
However if you want a professional quality medical guide on anatomy buy this book, you will not regret it.

Editorial Review:

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.

„h Content is organized by specific body part to give readers the ability to work in any sequence.
„h An introductory chapter explains commonly used terms in anatomy in great detail. It also discusses the moral implications of dissecting dogs for canine gross anatomy, as well as the procedures and guidelines used in dissection.
„h A list of figures and tables with page numbers is included in the front of the book.

A list of references is provided in the back of the book to provide opportunities for further study.

A lousy textbook 1 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I got this book for Vet A&P class, and I'm switching to a human anatomy book for next term. This book is printed in monochromatic blue, with lousy diagrams and scant information (24 pages dedicated to the skeletal system, and a whopping 14 for the muscular system!) In short, this is the most uninviting textbook I've ever opened, and it's been completely useless to me. A total waste of 50 bucks.

Great resource 5 out of 5 stars.

I'm heading to vet school in the fall and I bought this book to review topics and as a shelf reference. I've been very happy with it. It is well organized and easy to understand.

Editorial Review:

Veterinary technicians must have a solid grasp of the underlying science in their field, and anatomy and physiology is a key component of the veterinary technology curriculum. CLINICAL ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY FOR THE VETERINARY TECHNICIAN is the first comprehensive work designed to cover clinically relevant A&P content. Written by veterinary technician educators at a level appropriate for students, it covers dogs, cats, horses, and cattle, integrated throughout each chapter. A separate chapter at the end of the book is devoted to birds.
