Thanks for reaching out, and I understand why you're worried. It's wonderful to hear you've been caring for your dove for so long! When a pet dove breaks a wing, it can be concerning, but rest assured that a vet will work with you to provide the best care possible without taking her away unless that's absolutely necessary for her welfare.
Broken wings in birds can happen from falls, collisions, or even getting caught in cage bars. Right now, make sure she’s in a quiet, comfortable space—preferably in a smaller, cushioned enclosure to prevent further injury.
Keep an eye out for any signs of severe pain like excessive flapping, favoring one wing entirely, or being unable to perch. If you see any open wounds or if she appears to be in shock—lethargic, breathing heavily, or refusing to eat—those are red flags and require immediate vet attention.
The best course of action is to have a vet assess her condition. They can help by confirming if the wing needs to be stabilized or if other treatments are necessary. Booking a video consult through Dial A Vet means you can quickly discuss how to handle her situation and ensure she heals well.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
