Exercise equipment utilized at the Veterinary Referral Center of Colorado includes a treadmill to encourage walking and aerobic exercise for weight loss, gym balls used for back and limb strengthening, cavaletti or adjustable-height jumps for encouraging use of limbs and strengthening, and foam for walking on to improve proprioception.

Range of motion and stretching exercises increase mobility and function of affected joints, improving the overall biomechanics of the patient.

One of the unique offerings at VRCC is the hydrotherapy pool located at the facility. It provides a non-weight bearing exercise for animals who have pain with walking and an alternative exercise in addition to regular walking to help increase range of motion and strength and facilitate weight loss. The pool is large enough to accommodate any size dog and has jets to provide a current for resistance. There is even an overhead lift to help get the patients in and out easily.
