Default Kennel cough

We just got a 10 week old male Yorkie we named Louie. When we first meet the breeder he said it was the first time the dog was ever outside because they don't take their dogs outside until they've had three rounds of shots, ok whatever. So on the way home he did a cough one time didn't think anything of it. He met our golden retrieve and they played all went well. Then we took him to a relatives house and he was outside in the grass. It was a cold damp day and after her went potty and I took him in he started coughing it sounded like a cat coughing up a hairball, cough cough gag. He did this for about 2 hrs then stopped for 6 hr then did it through the night. The next day he did it maybe once, but he does it a lot at night. He went to the vet yesterday the vet rubbed his trachea and said usually dogs with kennel cough gag and react when you touch their tracheas. He of course didn't make a single sound at the vet. He said he didn't think it was and was just the exposure to cool air and dampness for the first time, he's eating drinking good. And playing, im more worried about my golden retriever just bc he's a little older. Any advice thanks
