Yes but its pretty rare. If you feel your dog is having respiratory problems, you need to take it to the vet ASAP. It's very common for dogs to have Allergies though, so this could be what's going on with your dog. You vet can do allergy tests to determine if the allergies are environmental or food allergies, and can then provide proper treatment.
