My JRT Henry is suffering from frequent cramping in his legs. What could be the cause? Any cause for concern?

Yes, leg cramping is not common and is only identified in a few breeds of terriers (like Scottish Terriers). I recommend to have Henry examined by his veterinarian to make sure his neurological system appears normal and that his knee caps are fine. Best of luck.
