That absolutely bites. I can't remember the medical term for a twisted stomach, but it is something every canine owner/handler needs to knwo about. Happens most often when playing rough, but can easily happen in the event you described.
Good thing it is raining here, I'm at work and fixing to hit the road. I think I'll stand on the shoulder for a bit
