Would pain in a dog effect their appetite?

My dog has a broken leg, but now she is not eating. I don't see why that would effect her appetite. Could something else be wrong?

If your dog has pain from the broken leg she is not going to feel much like eating. When any living creature is in pain they usually do not have an appetite. You should call your vet and make sure there are no complication from the broken leg.

A lot of times, if a dog is in pain it will most definitely affect her appetite. Check with your vet and see if they can give her something for the pain.
