she did at the vets overnight to help with swelling but that was removed in the morning,if i were you i would call them just to check everything is o.k. charlie probably knows that his support has gone and it will probably take a few days for him to try to use it again
sorry i can't be more help

He did at least put some weight on it when the bandage was on (I know this supported the leg a lot). Should I be worried or is this normal? Many thanks.
I would guess the leg feels different without the bandage and Charlie now has to get used to the leg without the bandage being there. The vet obviously saw the leg when the bandage was removed so must have been happy it was going on ok.

Perhaps the pain meds are wearing off and that could explain his reluctance to put weight on it? Ozzy had his bandages on for at least a couple of weeks to help stop him picking the stitches out!
