Why is my bulldog screaming with sudden hip pain and limping?

Question

Hello, I have a 3 year old English bull dog! Over all she is in great health- no on going health issues, no medications- but strict diet. Last night prior to putting her in her crate, she was perfectly fine. This morning, she will not put any weight on her right leg. She has it a bit curled up, and screams in pain if you move her or touch the leg. Upon investigation, it seems to be coming from her hip.

Poor Grace. It may be she injured her hip in the crate. I'm concerned about the screaming when you move or touch the leg. Unfortunately there are no pain relievers you can give her at home. Many human ones are toxic to dogs and can be fatal if given. I'd take her into a vet now to get treated.
