My dog has been randomly have dry coughs that last no more than 10-15secs and she does not throw up anything. I believe what she throws up in here month, she swallows. He coughs happen completely random, even while she is laying down. She had her Kennel Cough Vaccine in May 2019. Is there anything I can give her to help her throat?

It’s hard to know why your pup is doing this. It’s possible she has allergies or is breathing in poor quality air. Parasites of the lungs, heart disease and primary lung disease can also cause coughing. A few things you can do at home which may help include starting her on an omega-3 fatty acid supplement and using an air filter in the house. If she has not been seen for the coughing, I recommend to have her examined by her veterinarian and if the doctor suspects allergies, discuss antihistamines. I hope this helps and best of luck.
