My dog is hacking occasionally. The last 2 days like he's trying to clear his throat. Otherwise he's fine. How can I help him?

It's possible Tucker experiencing a sore throat or a cold. Sometimes pets will get over this on their own and sometimes they require a vet visit. https://www.petcoach.co/article/do-dogs-get-colds/ Giving him an omega 3 fatty acids for pets can help as a natural anti-inflammatory. Keep him quiet so that he is not running or barking. Lastly, make sure he is drinking plenty of water. Have him examined if he gets worse. I hope he feels better quickly.
