In TCM acupuncture and veterinary medicine, the dog-body acupuncture model has become an indispensable teaching and practice tool. With its high degree of precision and practicality, this model provides an intuitive, three-dimensional learning platform for veterinarians and acupuncturists to better understand and apply the principles and techniques of acupuncture treatment in dogs.

First of all, in the process of designing and manufacturing the dog acupuncture model, the anatomical characteristics of dogs and the distribution of meridian points were fully considered. The model is usually based on the body proportion and muscle structure of real dogs, and accurately simulates the main parts of the dog, such as the head, neck, trunk, and limbs. In each part, canine acupuncture points corresponding to human acupuncture points, as well as the direction and distribution of meridians are accurately marked.

The labeling of these points and meridians is based on long-term veterinary and acupuncture research results, which have been repeatedly verified and corrected to ensure their accuracy and reliability. Therefore, when a veterinarian or acupuncturist uses the dog body acupuncture model to learn and practice, they can clearly see the exact location of each acupuncture point, the direction of the meridians, and the structure of the surrounding muscles, so as to better understand the principles and techniques of acupuncture treatment in dogs.

In addition, the dog acupuncture model is highly repeatable and adjustable. The model material is usually made of high-quality, durable plastic or silicone that can be used over and over again without wear or distortion. At the same time, the acupoint and meridian marks on the model can also be adjusted or modified as needed to adapt to different breeds and different body types of dogs. This makes the dog-body acupuncture model have a wide application prospect in veterinary teaching and clinical practice.

In veterinary teaching, the dog body acupuncture model can be used as an important auxiliary teaching tool. By observing and operating the model, students can more intuitively understand the basic theory and operation skills of canine acupuncture, and improve their learning interest and practical ability. At the same time, the model can also be used as an important basis for teachers to evaluate students' mastery and help students better consolidate and apply what they have learned.

In clinical practice, the dog-body acupuncture model also has important application value. Veterinarians can use the model for simulation exercises and planning before acupuncture treatment, improving the accuracy and safety of treatment. At the same time, the model can also serve as an important tool for patient education to help patients better understand the process and effects of acupuncture treatment.
