Yeah.. I was always paranoid too... used to feed the dogs soaked food, and feed it late at night so they weren't running around playing right after they ate.

Then about 5yrs ago I had a 7 month old male collie bloat/torsion on an empty stomach... I caught it early, went to the ER vet = surgery to take his stomach... he survived, did great was hospitalized about 36hrs total...

A year later a dog I co-owned was at his co-owners and bloated, again on an empty stomach... he was not so lucky, sadly he didn't survive. He was the sire of the puppy that bloated....hmm and breeders try to deny it can SOMETIMES be genetic....
