My vet has alot of Dane people tack the stomach automatically
when the dogs are young.
***************************************************

With this in mind I would say that torsion is more the cause rather than bloat 
since they can still bloat with a tacked stomach.  A friend who breeds Great 
Danes just recently told me that the number one death in GD is now heart 
problems not bloat/torsion. COuld it be because they are tacking the stomach?
