Note he is holding his left hind foot up. Grant noticed him limping on the weekend, though I never saw it. After racing at high speed at doggie park, he could not walk on it and came home on three legs. I called my vet nephew to see if I should take him to the vet today or wait a few days before going. He suggested waiting, and not letting him go up and down stairs, no jumping, no walks, etc. If he isn't better in a couple of days, he needs to go in. He probably has a pulled cruciate ligament like football players get. If it is that, he will need surgery.
