Generally, no, a dog won't eat when it is bloated. This is because the stomach is twisted around and there is no place for the food to go; the stomach is often painful as well.

Please be advised that bloat isn't the only reason a dog may not be eating, however.

Why does your dog eat like he is starving to death all the time?

Some dogs naturally eat quickly and eat large volumes - this is either a learned behavior (sometimes dogs do this when they had uncertain feeding schedules as puppies) or is simply a habit of a dog that wants to spend more time playing or interacting with its humans. This can predispose a dog to gastric bloat and stomach twists, so it's not entirely benign.

Well, It for certain helps. :) Not for certain at all. Research has shown that elevated food bowls can actually increase the risk of bloat. One answer is to try an anti-gulp water bowl and a slow feeder dog bowl, neither of these can cause any harm and have been proven to slow dogs down eating and drinking which is the only way to prevent bloat.
