Anna,

I'm so sorry about Keisha. Bloat can be a serious concern
for all of the larger breeds. All deep chested dogs. I understand
that the military K 9's (GSDS) all undergo surgery to tie the
stomach to the wall of the chest to prevent Bloat in their service
dogs. They are housed in kennels & no one would notice if they
went into distress after eating. Bloat is deadly.
