I have a 3 month old female GSD....  my vet is recommending tacking her stomach when she is spayed to try to eliminate the possibility of Bloat.  She should reach 80+ lbs and is obviously deep chested.

 

Thoughts on this procedure?  I wouldnt put her through surgery for just that...but if the hood is open for the sterilization...what would you do?
