To also append my initial post...

I misunderstood what my Vet was saying... He has only seen one other case of Bloat in a doberman. And that was in school. He sees 1-2 cases of bloat each month. "Bender's Story" has already saved a life. 2 days ago my sister-in-law's Parents dog got sick. They were worried after hearing about Bender, so they took her right in to the vet. Turned out she was Bloating and needed Emergency surgery. She is doing better now, but only time will tell.

I don't mean to SCARE anyone I just want to make sure we're all aware of this silent killer. I wished I'd known. Next time you take your dog in for shots, or a check up have a conversation with your vet. Know the risks, and preventative measures that can be taken for your specific breed.
