Do not let the dog play or exercise (e.g. go for a walk) for at least two hours after having a meal. Ensure continuous fresh water is available to avoid your pet gulping down a large amount after eating.

When to walk dog after eating? You should wait at least two hours before walking your dog after eating. Walking your dog immediately after eating can cause bloat or torsion and a condition called GDV (gastric dilation-volvulus) which is a twisting of the gut caused by vigorous exercise.

Apply similar rules to your dogs: Wait 30 minutes after a walk to feed them and at least an hour after feeding to walk them.

dogs who exercise before or after eating can develop bloat.

Mostly a problem with large breed dogs, bloat is a digestive problem that causes the stomach to blow up like a balloon.
