Working animals – such as service dogs, therapy dogs, or assistance animals – play an invaluable role in the lives of many people. They support people with physical or mental disabilities, accompany seniors, provide emotional support, and even help in medical emergencies. However, these loyal companions can also experience health challenges – particularly respiratory illnesses, allergies, or age-related conditions. This is where the Varon oxygen concentrator comes in: a medical device that can help not only people, but potentially also working animals with respiratory support.
VARON 1-7L/min Home Oxygen Device VH-2
This article explores whether and how working animals can benefit from Varon oxygen concentrator technologies. We examine potential applications, safety aspects, advantages, and the best devices – such as the VH-2 – for home use.
Why do animals sometimes need oxygen therapy?
Respiratory distress doesn't just affect humans. Working animals can also suffer from respiratory illnesses such as chronic bronchitis, laryngeal paralysis, heart failure, or lung diseases. These problems are particularly common in older dogs. In veterinary clinics, the use of oxygen cages or oxygen masks has long been standard practice. So why not provide targeted oxygenation at home with a Varon oxygen concentrator ?

The Varon VH-2 oxygen concentrator: Ideal for humans and animals
The Varon VH-2 oxygen concentrator is not only an excellent everyday companion for people. With its flexible setting of 1-7 liters of oxygen per minute, a low noise level of only 48 dB, and its continuous 24/7 operation, this model is also suitable for animal-assisted therapy in the home.
Thanks to its 8-stage filter system , the VH-2 delivers highly purified oxygen and ensures a consistent, clean air supply – a significant advantage for sensitive animal lungs. The adjustable oxygen concentration (35-90%) allows for individual customization to the animal's health condition.
In addition, the device is equipped with a nebulizer function . This means that inhaled medications can be administered via the same outlet if needed – ideal for veterinary-prescribed bronchodilators or expectorants.
How can oxygen therapy be used safely in animals?
Even though the Varon oxygen concentrator is technically capable of helping animals, every use should first be discussed with a veterinarian. Animals are sensitive to changes in their environment – therefore, a gradual introduction to the device is recommended. The following tips will help:
-
Consult a veterinarian: Diagnosis, dosage and duration of therapy must be agreed upon by a veterinarian.
-
Monitor oxygen supply: Short sessions under observation are ideal.
-
Use special masks: There are pet masks that fit better than human versions.
-
Reducing stress: The quiet operation of the VH-2 is a great advantage here – this way the animal is not frightened.
And let's not forget: The VH-2 isn't just for animals. Owners with chronic lung diseases (e.g., COPD) can also use the device – making it the ideal solution for households with working animals and people with similar needs.
Protection during flu season: Comfort for humans and animals
During cold and flu season, both people and farm animals are increasingly exposed to pathogens. For COPD patients, a flu infection is often more serious than for healthy individuals. Many have to wear masks – which makes breathing more difficult. Animals can also suffer from reduced oxygen intake.
A portable or stationary Varon oxygen concentrator offers a convenient and hygienic alternative to a clinic. Comfortable treatment at home reduces the risk of infection and saves stress – for both people and their farm animals .
VARON offers variety: The right device for every need.
In addition to the VH-2, VARON offers a wide range of other oxygen concentrators – from portable solutions to stationary units for continuous operation. All products impress with their sophisticated design, high efficiency, and ease of use.
