Question
Hi.My dog started to limp.I am low on money and cant go to the vet.

Answer
If the dog had an injury of some type, then rest him.  Try and confine the dog to a small padded area inside except to potty outside.  Many orthopedic problems (other than fractures) heal with time. If the dog is in severe pain, then you may have to take him to a vet for some pain relief.
