ACT QUICKLY

Recognize the Warning Signs of Bloat

Bloat occurs when a dog’s stomach expands with gas, food, or fluid. With GDV, the stomach also twists, restricting blood flow and placing pressure on surrounding organs.

Seek emergency care immediately if your dog is experiencing:

Repeated retching without producing vomit
A swollen, tight, or painful abdomen
Heavy drooling or panting
Restlessness or an inability to get comfortable
Weakness, pale gums, or collapse
Rapid breathing or signs of distress

Do not wait to see whether the symptoms improve. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical.

COORDINATED EMERGENCY CARE

Emergency GDV Treatment at REVIVE

Our team can begin evaluating and stabilizing your dog as soon as you arrive. Depending on your dog’s condition, care may include bloodwork, abdominal imaging, IV fluids, oxygen support, cardiac monitoring, stomach decompression, and emergency surgery.

During GDV surgery, the stomach is returned to its normal position and evaluated for damage. A gastropexy is then performed to secure the stomach to the abdominal wall and reduce the risk of another life-threatening twist.

Stabilize

IV fluids, oxygen support and immediate monitoring.

Diagnose

Bloodwork, abdominal imaging and cardiac assessment.

Operate

Emergency surgery and gastropexy when indicated.

Monitor

Integrated ICU support before and after surgery.

Is dog bloat always an emergency?

A distended stomach may occur with or without twisting, but it is impossible to determine the difference at home. Suspected bloat should always be treated as an emergency.
