You are very lucky -- Ebony got bloat a few years ago but his stomach had FLIPPED 180 degrees -- cutting off all circulation. He had to have his stomach pumped, twisted back, and then stapled to his abdoment so it didn't flip again --- at 2 in the morning. And for $7,000.
The important thing is that your baby is OK!

OH you poor thing!! Misty is the same way...I have to keep EVERYTHING totally out of reach or she will find a way to get into it and eat it.
I hope she feels better soon!!

Re: this dog is going to be the death of me......
Yesterday Bama ate an entire bag of my Keeblers reese's peanut butter cup cookies! That's like 40 cookies! Then he threw up a number of times last night. Thank goodness we didn't have to go through what you did though.
We have to be really careful about leaving food on the counter or leaving the pantry door open. I can't get mad at Bama because it's OUR fault when he gets into food, not his.
Hope your pup is better soon!
