My dog is limping from its back left leg?

My dog is limping from its back left leg, i was playing with him on the bed he was jumping around and on one jump when he fell to the bed he started crying for like 5 to 10 secs then he wouldnt let his leg on the ground :/ i checked if maybe he broke a bone or something but he still uses it when he stands up or walks, he just picks it up when hes just standing there..is it something serious, or will it go away ?

    It could be serious. He could have torn something, have a dislocation, or even a fracture. It could be a symptom of something systemic if he was injured more easily than he should have been, so I would definitely have him checked by a vet.

    i would probably call your vet or the animal hospital near your house and just tell them the situation just to be safe. those kind of things usually go away in a few days though

    He could have a dislocated hip, or a blown knee cap. A vet should see him. My dog blew her knee cap just from running slowly.

    If he is still having problems tomorrow, ask your parents to take him to the vet for you.

    maybe he sprained it. if hes still using it then i dont think its anything serious. you should probably get it looked at by a vet
