I POKED AROUND THE AERAAND HEIS SUCH A GOOD CALM DOG THAT HE DOSNT MAKE A MOVE WHEN I TOUCH IT... BUT HE ISSLEEPING W/ IT IN THE AIR.... HELP MEPLEASE?  

Answer
I would give him some aspirin, buffered aspirin is best.  Not any of the newer stuff, plain old aspirin.  5 mg per pound of body weight every 8 hours, likely less than half a regular 325 tablet, maybe start with baby aspirin.

If he is still limping on Monday, take him to the vet.
