Expert Answer

Canine pneumonia treatment takes about 1 to 2 weeks; the exact time depends on the dog’s constitution and how severe the pneumonia is. Pneumonia progresses quickly, so if you notice symptoms, take the dog to a vet promptly rather than treating it at home, to avoid worsening.

With active treatment, healthier dogs usually recover in about 1 to 2 weeks.
