Please help, anyone know whats wrong ?

she's 13 and half years old

With her being a senior dog, I would get her to the Vet. There can any numbers reasons for this, one of which can be heart problems, that can account for fluid build up and trouble breathing. Please take her to the Vet and I pray she will be ok.
