Broken leg?
Yesterday afternoon my pup ran into the wall and jammed his leg/paw into the corner and yelped. He is limping around on it still running and jumping trying to keep all that to a minimal. He else doesn't whine or try to pull away when I'm examining the paw and leg. Do you guys think it's broke, should I take him in?

If the leg were broke, he couldn't put any weight on it. He could have sprained a toe, or bruised it, maybe factured. If he isn't better by tomorrow, I would call the vet.

If it were my puppy, I'd have him checked out if he continues limping.

Re: Broken leg?
Also would you consider keeping him in his kennel more than normal so he's not running around.

I would see if there's actually anything wrong before putting a dog on crate rest.

I agree with Debbie. Vet check first.
