Yorkiegirlso sorry to hear this. Have you tried steaming her (putting her in the bathroom with hot taps on full. Sounds like it might be croup to me. It'll either be steam or cold that'll work for her. If you've any honey in the house, put some in a cup, with hot water and some orange juice and water and let her sip it.. The honey will help soothe the cough and the vitamin C helps too.
