STOP Your Dog From Getting Deadly Bloat (GDV)

Pet parents of Golden Retrievers, Poodles, and other large, deep-chested dogs must understand the threat of stomach bloat (GDV), a life-threatening condition where the stomach fills with gas and twists. Dr. Randy Aronson shares a dramatic personal story from his veterinary internship to underscore the urgency of this condition. He breaks down the alarming mechanics of bloat, explaining how fermenting kibble and strenuous exercise after meals put your dog at extreme risk.

Dr. Randy provides the vital, actionable steps you can take to prevent bloat, including managing your dog’s activity after eating and reducing reliance on dry kibble. Crucially, he and co-host Olivia Sacci discuss the ultimate preventative measure: the gastropexy—a surgical procedure that "tacks" the stomach to the abdominal wall to ensure it can never twist. Learn why this procedure, often performed during spay or neuter surgery, is a critical consideration for conscientious large-breed dog owners seeking to mitigate this silent killer.
