Dog coughs, sneezes, eats favorites; unsure pneumonia or bronchitis.
Suspected pneumonia needs a vet: temp, lung sounds, X-ray, maybe lavage. Pneumonia is acute/chronic inflammation of lung and bronchi, so they co-occur; your X-ray suggests white lung and heart enlargement - ask the doctor, do an echo to rule out heart disease.
