has fluffy been in contact with any other dogs with the same symptoms or been in boarding kennels recently? possibly got kennel cough, this is usually a very dry raspy cough sometimes bringing up mucous which requires antibiotics. or suffer from laryngitis which will need veterinary attention. could she have eaten anything that she shouldn't have, like broken toys or something in the park? that could have scratched her throat or caused an obstruction. monitor for signs of lethargy or if she stops eating. offer plenty of water.
