Best Answer

Young animals heal more quickly than older ones, so if the fracture heals straight, the puppy should have no trouble in the future. The vet will probably put a cast on the leg so that it will heal properly. Fractures take about six weeks to heal. After that, the cast can come off and the puppy will be able to walk around normally.
