    First you are going to want to sit down with your dog and just lightly feel the injured leg, compare it to the other side and see if you can feel anything different, if yo can it would probably be a good idea to take him to a veterinarian. If you cant feel anything, have him take it easy for 4-7 days to see if the problem persists

    Has he hurt it someway?

    If he's limping, odds are he's uncomfortable and in pain.

    I would take him to a vet to get checked out.
