Hi there
This sounds really serious.. Is it bleeding at all, or is the joint dislocated? Can it use the leg at all? Are there any swellings? How long ago did this happen?
I think it is important that you get him to a vet asap, if you explain to them that you do not have any money right now they might agree to make a payment plan for you to pay in installments (not all vets do this though). If they dont agree to this, maybe they can recommend charity veterinary organisations in your area that you can call.
In the meantime, make sure to keep it as warm as possible if you feel it is getting cold. Hot water bottles, blankets, etc.. anything to keep it comfortable. How is it like in itself? Is it responding at all? Breathing normal?
Please let me know how you get on..
