So my beautiful 7 year old labrador is struggling.

She knocked the top off the dog food container and ate around 3kg of dry dog food. I worked in an after hours vet for years so I do know about all the hazards of overeating in a large breed dog.... There is a high likelihood that she could get bloat or GDV in vet terms, the technical name is gastric dilation volvulus. Basically the stomach twists and causes a blockage with the intestines so food can't proceed through and then causes bloat and without expensive surgery death. Sometimes, even with surgery its touch and go for 2 weeks.

I took her to the vet this arvo when she was groaning in pain and I found she ate the food. Basically its a wait and see....

I've been taking her temp every hour, listening to her guts (with my stethiscope) and taking her for slow walks in order to get her guts moving and the food to go through... urgh.
