A link about URI in puppies: Managing pneumonia in puppies (Proceedings) - Veterinary Healthcare Baytril (enroflaxin) and Doxycycline should not be used in puppies as they affect the teeth and joints negatively. As you stated she's a bit worse at night and in the morning... in other words when and after lying down...maybe the mucous is settling in her lungs... be sure she's getting some exercise. If she becomes lethargic, you will need to get her admitted ASAP to the vet hospital where she can get IV antibiotics, nebulization, IV fluids, and oxygen if needed. If the antibiotic she is taking is working, she should continue to get better. If you see her getting worse, lethargic, not eating, producing an increased amount of mucous... do not wait a day or two... get her right back to the vet (preferably a 24 hour vet) to be admitted for supportive treatment. The Robitussin is a cough suppressant which may not be the best thing... you want her to be able to cough up the mucous, but is also thins the mucous which can help her to clear it. Just don't overdo it....
