it could be a pulled muscle or a sprain, or it could be something entirely different. what about his neck? does he seem to be holding that any different? Can you move his neck up, down, right, and left without him yelping? sometime neck problems will show up with symptoms of holding one of the front legs up or limping on one of the front legs. only way to tell is by going to the vet. It could also be lyme disease in which the vet could do a blood test to find out. if you don't want to jump to the vet you can crate him for a few days to see if it help. resting only, no jumping, running, or playing.
just some ideas.
