Keywords: Aksaray Malaklı dog, Kangal dog, neurocranium, splanchnocranium

In this study, the structures forming the spesific features of the neurocranium and splanchnocranium of the Malaklı and Kangal dogs were studied comparatively.

The ossa cranii of five Aksaray Malaklı and five Kangal dogs at 4-5 years of age were obtained from the dog breeders and were macerated, –after 5 hours boiling in the water without formaldehyde but with 10% NaHCO3 and then holding in 5 H2O2 for % 5-10 min. Ossa cranii were prepared with carefully to examine and were measured with the digital compass, photographed with. For the terminology Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria was used.

Os occipitale, os parietale and os frontale of neurocranium and os zygomaticum and os lacrimale of splanchnocranium were investigated. The length of arcus zygomaticus, squama occipitalis and the orbita diameters were significantly in Aksaray Malaklı dogs. The vertical width of foramen magnum was also significantly different in Kangal dogs. There was no difference in the distance measured between squama occipitalis, protuberantia occipitalis externa, crista sagittalis externa and processus zygomaticus of frontale between two breed.

It was concluded that some differences observed in the measurements of neurocranium and splanchnocranium of Aksaray Malaklı and Kangal dogs can be used in differantiating these races.
