How/where can I get a full body X-ray of my dog?

How about calling your vet to ask?

We recently had x-rays taken of the chest region of our 60lb dog The cost was $240.00 and it was done without sedating her

Most Veterinarian x-Ray machines will not hold film large enough to capture the entire large dog in one shot so it would take a series of x-rays which may be more than I paid.
This is based on my experience in Southern California.

I would see if any large-animal veterinarians could tip you off to a larger machine such as they use for horses. Perhaps they could pull off the single image. I have no idea about costs in that area.

I asked my vet a few months ago, and she said she would not recommend it, or rather would not get an xray if it not necessary because it is radiation. She labels her practice as integrated, western and holistic. What she said worries me, especially since I am pretty sure I will need to get several x-rays in order to get her whole body.

Also, I need her to be in the standing position, a laying dog looks different than a standing dog… so maybe a horse one would be a good idea.

I was thinking maybe some students of a vet school or agriculture department may need some practice or something.

Do they have to be of your dog? How about asking some vets, or as you mentioned a veterinary school source, if they have any x-rays that you can have? Think about it, how long would they need to hold on to old x-rays once an animal is fixed? (Maybe for a certain period of time in case of back-up for a potential law suit, but after awhile, they are going to get tossed.)

Sorry, but are you really being serious about this?
I wouldn’t risk putting my dog through unnecessary radiation for the sake of an art project. Nor would I put them through sedation which is a fairly risky procedure for an animal at the best of times.
It sounds a little bit irresponsible and selfish, especially as there is nothing up with your dog.
Your vet sounds cool.

Please go with the suggestion made by @Pied_Pfeffer – go to a vet school, or college of agriculture (they may have xrays of larger animals) as they are bound to have copies of xrays that they might let you borrow – or at least they may be able to show you where you can find more resources to aid your project.

Instead of unnecessarily radiating your dog, why don’t you look up some dog skeletons on the Internet and draw one? Make it a real art project.
