Sad Hurt leg, how much baby aspirin?

Sophie is favoring one of her back legs and she has just been sleeping or standing there shaking if I take her out to pee. She looks like she doesn't feel well but her breathing is fine and I offered her food and she ate it all!

I carefully felt of her leg and moved it around. She lets me move the joint every way, no problems. Then I pressed a little on her leg, starting at the foot and moving up. She yelled and pulled away when I pressed near the top (close to her hip). Then when I moved it around again she was fine. So I'm pretty sure it's just bruised or sprained, not broken. She couldn't have fallen off anything, because she can't get on the couch, and plus I watch her constantly. I'm guessing she was probably playing and bumped into something.

I just went out and bought her some baby aspirin, she's 3.5 lbs, how much can she take of an 81mg pill?

Thanks ahead of time...
