I agree with your vet. I don't think anyone is blaming the male part of
the equation over the female....my position is that if you study pedigrees,
you can see it run in some families more than others.

I'll share with you the opinion of a vet I highly respect, one who deals
in
emergency care and sees bloat in many different breeds, including Beagles!
"When it comes to bloat, it is wise to refrain from blaming a stud, as
there is still no scientific proof that they are to be blamed. Nor the
dam. It
has not been 100% ascertained that bloat is hereditary. As this disease
is
not exclusive to GSD's, but to all dogs (and cats, and humans). Geneticist
have not been able to ascertain this illness genetic standing. And since
dam and stud are responsible for 50% of their offspring genetic
compositi
on, there would be much room for blame on both sides."
