my puppy is 18 weeks old. I got her and her sister from the same kennel. When we got her she didnt have this Cough and gag. Now she does. Its hardly ever during the day. maybe like 5 times but at night it gets bad when she is sleeping or taking a nap during the day.

here is what is going on... she is coughing or wheezing really hard several times a day followed by this terrible gag at the end. Brief pause and then she will start again. She gets in a position like she is going potty almost whenever she is coughing and gagging, all hunched over-like.

Does anyone know anything about this? Does the cold make it worse? Why does this happen at night? Why doesnt my other dog have it if its contagious. Could it be collapsed tranchea? Could it be Kennel Cough? Could it be allergies? I am taking her to the vet tomorrow we just dont have many good ones around here.
