The only thing I've heard that hasn't been mentioned yet is lower protein levels in the feed. I've heard feeding a senior formula kibble to chronic crampers seems to help.

Mac used to have terrible cramps, but he usually got them at night time. I have been giving him electrolytes and magnesium supplements. I have stopped with the electrolytes, because it made him wake up a hundred times every night to go out... But if I see him start to cramp up I just give him a magnesium tablet, and it goes away. I also feed him Pro Plan with salmon, because it is rich in omega 3, which is supposed to be good for muscles.

He used to get cramps for everything: chewing to hard on a pigs ear, running, being cold, digging etc.. And he really have some big muscles to cramp up in... View attachment 40316
