A simple and accurate mini guide to the canine HIP muscles
Throughout this miniguide you will see a simple
structure repeated. A green block to the right of the
page provides a description of the muscle, while an
illustration to the left of the page allows you to
clearly visualise a single muscle.
For the best results, use this guide in conjunction with
Miller’s Anatomy of the Dog and hands-on Canine
Dissections.
Take a deeper dive into Canine Anatomy by
purchasing the book Canine Muscle Anatomy,
Simplified. This book includes cross sectional areas,
further descriptions and more in-depth information
on different regions of the body. It also includes the
innervation and function of each different muscle.
