Have your dog examined by a veterinarian immediately. GDV (gastric dilatation and volvulus) or bloat can be a life-threatening emergency. What happens is the stomach feels with air then twists on itself strangulating vessels. This lead to tissue death and shock and is an emergency.
Other things that can cause a dilated stomach are tumors, internal bleeding, or fluid in the abdomen.
Your veterinarian will do a thorough exam and then imaging--ultrasound or x-rays--will need to be done.
