My French bulldog puppy is coughing, wheezing, and gagging. What to do?

Question

I just bought a puppy yesterday. He’s 10 weeks old. He’s a French bulldog. He has been making a coughing/wheezing/gagging noise. Not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

I'd have him seen by a vet tomorrow. He could have a respiratory infection or could be suffering from kennel cough. The vet can diagnose what is causing these symptoms and can treat him for it. As an aside, this could also be normal. He's a French bulldog, and due to their flatter face, they often make many noises like this. Still it's best to have him checked out to be safe. I hope this helps.
