How long until a dog’s cast can be removed?

Expert Answer

A severe fracture needs a cast for 2 to 8 weeks before removal, based on bone healing. During casting limit activity to avoid worse damage and longer recovery.

After removal, do rehab for a while to return to normal life; do not let it do hard exercise right after.
