There's mixed info on preventing bloat. Some sources say raising the food bowl actually increases the risk because the dog can and will eat faster. Find a vet that specializes in giant breeds and ask them. We had a Rottie die of bloat - not a good way to go. One thing the vet told us is that we could have had her stomach tacked to her chest wall (easy to do while being spayed) to prevent the twisting of the stomach. If you plan on getting her spayed, ask about that. No matter the breed, puppies are fun, even if they're a lot of work - enjoy!!!
