Coughing in senior dogs, particularly at night, can be indicative of several serious conditions including heart disease (such as congestive heart failure), kennel cough, chronic bronchitis, or even collapsing trachea. It's essential to have your dog examined by a veterinarian as soon as possible. They can perform a physical exam, listen to the heart and lungs, and potentially recommend diagnostics like chest X-rays to determine the underlying cause and prescribe appropriate treatment to improve your dog's quality of life.
