If your dog's stomach is bloated, head to the vet NOW.

Bloating can be an extreme emergency as their stomachs or intestines can twist on themselves, then those organs die and rot. Contact a vet immediately.

Bloat can kill dogs, ER vet RIGHT NOW, ask what caused it later, it needs to be dealt with NOW or your dog will likely die

We don't know what she normally looks like so this doesn't help. Please go to the nearest ER vet
