Hell. It sounds like Bullet was injured. Perhaps someone tripped over or actually stepped on his leg. Even a bigger dog could have injured him. He does need to see a veterinarian as soon as possible. If the leg is fractured, bones generally heal very quickly when the proper treatment is started, sometimes within weeks. I hope you can have Bullet seen soon & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
