This issue of the AKC Gazette has an article on the causes of bloat. Among others, it mentions feeding only dry food, feeding dry food that's been moistened, and feeding from an elevated bowl as CAUSES of bloat. There's actually a big long list of things related to bloat. My question is--has any one out there actually read the original article? Unmoistened food and having the dog eat with its head down are things I've always been told to avoid to prevent bloat. I'm wondering if they just looked at so many different variables that they were bound to find something, and some of the things they found were chance alone.
