Introduction to Pet Oxygen Therapy: The PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask
At Pawprint Oxygen, we understand how critical oxygen therapy can be for pets. Our premier product, the PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask, ensures that your furry friends receive the oxygen they need, whether at home or on the go.
The PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask can be seamlessly integrated with most oxygen delivery systems. Whether using an oxygen concentrator for prolonged therapy or Pawprint Oxygen’s Transport and Rescue system for emergencies, the PureVent technology ensures efficient oxygen administration.
Tips for Acclimating Your Pet to the PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask
While some pets might initially resist, most adapt quickly once they experience the therapeutic benefits of oxygen. In almost all cases, when your pet needs oxygen during respiratory distress, they will not fight the mask.
To help your pet get used to wearing a mask, we recommend using treat-training and positive reinforcement. You can try using your pet's favorite treat, liquid treat, or peanut butter to encourage your pet to accept the pet oxygen mask. By familiarizing your pet in advance, they will be more comfortable wearing it during an emergency situation.
Cleaning and Maintaining Your Pet Oxygen Mask
PureVent Pet Oxygen Masks can be easily cleaned for safe reuse. Maintaining the PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask is simple. Clean it with warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely to ensure it’s ready for the next use.
Cleaning your pet oxygen mask will not only extend the life span of the mask but create a safe clean environment for your pet.
Mitigating Carbon Dioxide Rebreathing Using PureVent
It is very important to use a pet oxygen mask that has proper venting when administering oxygen therapy to a cat, dog, and our other furry friends.
It is crucial to mitigate CO2 buildup while a pet is using an oxygen mask to prevent hypercapnia, a condition characterized by elevated levels of carbon dioxide in the blood. When a pet inhales pure oxygen, it is vital that exhaled CO2 is efficiently removed from the pet oxygen mask and surrounding air to ensure proper respiratory function. Failure to adequately ventilate CO2 can lead to respiratory acidosis, where the blood becomes too acidic, impairing the pet's normal physiological processes and potentially leading to symptoms such as confusion, lethargy, and increased respiratory rate. Prolonged hypercapnia can exacerbate respiratory distress, reduce the effectiveness of oxygen therapy, and can even be life-threatening. Therefore, ensuring proper ventilation and CO2 clearance while using a pet oxygen mask is essential for maintaining the pet's respiratory health and overall well-being.
Our tri-vent design on the PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask prevents harmful CO2 buildup, ensuring your pet's safety and the efficacy of the treatment using oxygen.

Fire Departments Choice for Pet Oxygen Masks
The PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask provides life-saving oxygen to animals during respiratory distress and emergency situations. Lightweight and ergonomic, the PureVent mask is easy to hold and administer Oxygen to your pet. The transparent construction of the mask ensures that pets feel comfortable and safe while providing optimal visibility. The PureVent Pet Oxygen Mask is a must-have for Pet Parents, Animal Hospitals, Veterinarians, and Fire Departments.
Pawprint Oxygen's pet oxygen masks are the choice of over 3,000 fire departments across the United States. Our pet oxygen masks can be easily connected to any oxygen source that fire fighters have on the fire trucks or with their oxygen equipment. Having fire departments equipped with pet oxygen masks is the first time pet's have had specialized equipment to help them in an emergency situation.
Contact your local fire department to make sure that they are equipped with PureVent Pet Oxygen Masks. Many fire departments get their masks through donations from community members just like you! Because they often get left at the scene of the fire to provide continued care to pets in need, fire departments often need replacement masks, too.
You can donate a mask set to your local fire department to make sure they are prepared to save the furry friends in our local communities.
We encourage all pet owners to consult with their veterinarians about the best oxygen therapy options for their pets and consider donating pet oxygen masks to local fire departments and rescue organizations. This small but impactful contribution can help save countless animal lives in our communities.
By being informed about pet oxygen masks, pet owners can better prepare for emergencies, ensuring they have the right equipment and knowledge to act quickly. Whether it's aiding a pet suffering from smoke inhalation, managing a chronic respiratory condition, or providing immediate support during a sudden health crisis, pet oxygen masks can be a crucial component of your pet care toolkit.
