I have a giant breed (English Mastiff)

I feed raw so I don't really have to worry about bowls, but on occasion I do feed canned fish and I don't elevate his bowl.

From what I've researched is that it's more important to keep them from running and playing or drinking a lot of water after eating to help prevent bloat.

My boy eats breakfast then come in for a long nap.

But if you have a problem getting her to concentrate on her food I would feed her in a different room.

Good Luck.
