Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Chutki! Curd is not appropriate nutrition for animals. They need to be on a commercial dog or puppy food if over 5 weeks of age, Under 5 weeks they should be fed a puppy formula. Regardless the curd should not be causing coughing. Curd can cause vomiting and diarrhea though. If dogs cough hard enough they can stimulate their gag reflex and end the cough in a gag or vomit. I would worry about the breathing with the cough. Causes could be kennel cough or pneumonia. I would have her examine by a Vet and consider having X-rays of her lungs. I wish you both the best!
