Mercedes wont eat out of a high dish either What I do is feed her seperatly and put her dish on a stool. lower then the ones you get at the pet store but off the ground. Make sure your dog doesn't drink lots of water after he/she eats. I try and lift the water right after eating as this causes the stomach to flip.

In case you didn't know mercedes is a dane

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.
