My dog coughs/dry heaves only in morning before eating. What's wrong?

Question

She has been dry heaving or coughing for the past 2 days but only in the morning before I feed her. She starts getting excited then she either coughs/dry heaves. She is acting normal and hasn't been anywhere to get kennel cough. What could this be or how much will it cost to go to the vet? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed | 11 months and 16 days old | 70 lbs

Poor coco. A cough in a younger dog could be from heartworm disease, parasites, bronchitis, asthma, allergies, bacterial, viral and trachea related. I would recommend taking coco to a veterinarian since the cough has been presistent. Your veterinarian might want to do a heartworm test , x-rays or medications to help. Unfortunately the price will depend on your location and services that are completed.
