Bloat
Bloat is a common condition in which the stomach swells from gas, fluid or both.
Bloat becomes a medical emergency when the stomach distends and then flips over, causing torsion. Bloat and torsion may be caused by over-eating, drinking large amounts of water after eating, and / or vigorous excercise after a meal.
Efforts to prevent bloat may include feeding several small meals a day, crating the dog for several hours after eating, and monitoring water intake.
