What is Oxygen Therapy for dogs?
Oxygen therapy for dogs is the act of supplementing the air the dog breathes with medical-grade oxygen. This is necessary in many cases where the dog has difficulty breathing and has difficulty absorbing oxygen or transporting that oxygen throughout the body. Increasing the amount of oxygen your dog breathes will help increase the oxygen supply to other body tissues in the animal due to disease or injury.

Oxygen is very important, and depending on the severity of the hypoxia, the dog can experience cell failure, organ failure, or death. Providing an animal with supplemental oxygen can mean the difference between life and death. For those who are critically ill, this is a life-saving therapy used to stabilize the animal and make them well enough to undergo diagnostic tests.

Keep in mind that oxygen for dogs should be prescribed by a veterinarian. Oxygen may not always be the solution for your pet so it's important to receive proper instruction from the vet to explore your options. Oxygen may not always save your dog's life either but can help to stabilize them at home or before a major surgery at a proper hospital or clinic.

How does the Oxygen Therapy process work?
There are a few different treatment plans that are available and you should do your own research to find which treatment plans may work for your situation. At Complete Medical Supply, we like to provide oxygen therapy with the use of an oxygen concentrator and a dog oxygen mask
