Good memory. (Even if its a sad memory.)
Yeah my boy Flint's (Loki) brother Balto Wolfen died from Gastric Torsion a few years back.
I don't know how common this is in CsV as compared to GSD but I still take extra precaution (as I would in any large breed) with mine, feeding small meals, not letting him do his "zoomies" or drink too much water after eating.
I'm glad it doesn't seem to be too common in the breed. I was always more worried about my GSD getting bloat til I watched her eat..... one... kibble... at.. a.... time... then I wasn't so worried lol.
