If you suspect a broken leg then I suggest you get her to a vet as soon as possible. A broken leg would be very painful and I'm sure if you had a broken leg you want to go to a doctor! Remember, not all injuries can be seen externally. She could have some internal injuries that you cannot see. Over the internet this is all I can offer you. Without examining her myself and/or taking an x-ray of her leg I cannot tell you what to do other than to get to a vet. Best wishes.

If there's is no emergency vet in your area all you can do is confine her to a small area so she doesn't do any more damage to the leg. Take her to the vet at first chance. Try your best to find a 24 hour vet.
