My Stomach is Twisted into a Knot…
Canine Bloat/Torsion Complex

........................................ 
You’ve heard these warnings before…don’ t swim for at least one hour after eating or you will cramp up and could drown. Don’ t cross your eyes or they will get stuck that way. To prevent your dog from developing the potentially life threatening condition, bloat and torsion…don’t feed dog food that contains grain , feed it from an elevated dish and keep it quiet for an hour after eating? Well I haven’t drowned yet and my eyesight is OK.
Dr. Kim Luce, a veterinarian whose primary focus is emergency and critical care medicine will discuss the medical syndrome, gastric (stomach) dilatation and volvulus.
