One thing that we do as a bloat preventative on recommendation from our vet is to soak the kibbles in water for 10 minutes before the dog eats. She said that when kibble soaks up fluid and expands it releases alot of gas, and so if you do that before hand with water then the soaking and gas expulsion doesn't happen in the stomach. Makes sense to me, and I figure it isn't hurt anything.
We also feed with a raised dish, but that's for joint health.
