You need to get the poor baby vet checked and then you will know whatyou are up against. They can make a diagnosis simply if it is collasped trachea.
I lost my Chelsea 1 year ago at age 14 and she had a bad trachea her entire life. At the end we treated her with meds but she was fine except for the episodes her entire life.
When the doggie starts doing that gagging thing try rubbing the top of his head. That usually will relieve the spasm.
Keep us posted, please ! and Good Luck
