Has anyone read the article in the AVMA Journal yet? Did I misunderstand the 
brief finding posted in the above link that said that there was a 200% 
increase in bloat if the dog was being fed from a raised feeding dish ? If 
this is the finding, I am more than a bit concerned since I feed from one... 
I guess when I take Push in to the vet school here for his allergy recheck I 
will ask the vets if they have read the article and what do they suggest. 
Has anyone on the list
had personal experience with bloat AND raised feeding dishes? Am I concerned 
over nothing?
