Does any one have any idea what this could be?

My dog can walk but really doesnt like to, his hind legs look very sore. He will walk around the yard but can not run, he has trouble lifting his leg to pee, he cant scratch his ears, and he will walk over to his food but lays down to eat. The rest of him seems to be working good, I can see he wants to play with the pup but he just cant do it. She will play and run into him and she knocks him over. Does any one have any idea what this could be? He is not having trouble breathing or anything else. We were out hunting on Saturday and he was digging into an old car when I noticed a bunch of bee's coming out of the vents, I grabbed his hind legs pulled him out and we left. Not to long after that I noticed he couldnt run right and was very slow. It is 4 days later and it is still happening. I would appreciate any input you may have. Thanks in advance.

Maybe you pulled his hip out of socket?

Exactly what i was thinking, might have to bring him to the vet to see whats going on. Or you pulled something and he's sore.

Just what I was thinking. Get him to a vet before it becomes irrepairable.

Yep.......

Sounds like some trauma has taken place during the pulling event resulting in an injury of some type. One needs to determine exactly what part and which tissue is injured.....leg loint? tendon? muscle? back? bone? disc? etc....

A vet is your best bet.
