Expert Answer

A dog’s pelvic fracture generally takes 1 to 3 months to heal, with the exact time depending on how severe the fracture is. Diagnosis usually requires an X-ray.

If the fracture is severe, such as the dog being unable to stand normally, surgical fixation may be needed, and the owner should give bone-healing medications under veterinary guidance. If the fracture is mild, conservative treatment can be used.
