It looks like a fracture, mostly. If you look at the distal end of the involved bone, there appears to be a periosteal reaction(that rough part closest to the surface) At the other end, close to the wrist, it almost looks like a bite has been taken out of the bone.

Maybe repeat films in a few weeks and compare them. I don't know about dogs, but osteosarcoma in a carpal/tarsal bone is pretty GD rare in humans.
