Title: Basic Anatomy of the Dog [PetMassage Home Study Course]

Summary:

The “Basic Anatomy of the Dog” PetMassage Home Study Course was specially formulated to meet the practical needs of the beginning dog massage / canine massage practitioner.

While administering a canine massage, it is imperative that you know enough about canine anatomy that you are able to visualize the anatomical structures beneath your hands. You need to know their shapes, how they move, and what they do.

When you complete this course, you will have a good fundamental understanding and working knowledge of dog / canine anatomy.

You will be able to reference the structures of the body, how they function, and learn the correct terminology necessary to communicate clearly and professionally with clients and colleagues. 

You will use this information in your practice with every dog.
