I have been trying to find information on the theory of diagnosis when working on animals. Anybody knowing where to find info about how to make a tcm-diagnosis on horses and on dogs?

Sincerely,

Generally with animals I use

Generally with animals I use local/systemic points as a true tcm diagnosis is quite difficult to come by with the absence of communication.  Additionally you are usually treating muscular-skeletal issues and/or anxiety problems which are relatively easy to treat with common points.  You may want to look into our veterinary resources section for related texts that go deeper into the subject.
