Why it matters
Oxygen is the foundation of respiratory care.
Whether the cause is pneumonia, heart failure, asthma, smoke inhalation, or trauma, getting oxygen into the blood is the priority. Modern veterinary medicine offers multiple ways to deliver supplemental oxygen, each suited to different patient sizes, severities, and tolerances.
A stressed cat in respiratory distress doesn’t need a mask shoved in her face — that can make breathing worse. Instead, she goes into a low-stress oxygen cage where she can settle. Effective dog oxygen therapy looks different again: a large breed dog with pneumonia may need a walk-in oxygen room with high oxygen percentages around the clock.
Matching the oxygen delivery method to the patient is part of the art of critical care. Our team selects, monitors, and adjusts oxygen therapy in real time to maximize benefit and minimize stress.
The Dogwood standard
Our oxygen capability matches every patient.
-
Multiple delivery options
Oxygen cages, walk-in oxygen rooms, nasal cannula, high flow nasal oxygen, and ventilator support — we have the right tool for each patient and condition.
-
Continuous monitoring
Pulse oximetry tracks blood oxygen levels constantly. We adjust flow rates and FiO₂ to maintain target oxygenation without over-supplementing.
-
Low-stress design
Especially for cats, low-stress oxygen environments are critical — stress dramatically worsens respiratory effort. Our setup minimizes handling and maximizes calm recovery.
