Draco will need to see a vet for his allergies. He likely needs medication to treat the symptoms, which can only be prescribed by a vet. It's concerning that he is having trouble breathing, and if it appears he's really struggling to breathe, he needs to see a vet immediately. When a puppy struggles to breathe, it can lead to respiratory distress which is fatal without treatment. Should he still be able to breathe ok, you can try using a humidifier or bringing him into the bathroom with the door closed while you take a hot shower - the steam and humidity help to break up congestion and temporarily relieve symptoms. Best of luck, I hope this helps.
