Why does my new dog have a runny nose and dry cough right after arriving home?

A shepherd dog brought from Shandong; it was fine when it arrived at a factory with steel, bricks, and cement, but recently it has teary eyes, some redness, a runny nose, retching (dry cough?), and diarrhea. It doesn’t look well; please help.
Watery eyes, retching, and a runny nose suggest a respiratory infection. If unvaccinated, also consider distemper, adenovirus, coronavirus, or mycoplasma/chlamydia infection. Usually the dog carries a viral disease and, after the move and the stress of a new environment, its resistance drops and the virus flares up. Prompt vet testing is advised.
My dog started a dry cough around 5 to 6 pm and it worsened, but was lively before; it stays in a hot factory by day and an AC room at night — could it be a cold? I also overfed it and the stool is loose
The dog may have an upper respiratory infection from bacteria or the big temperature swing between the hot factory and the AC room. Cough can also signal asthma, pneumonia, or other viral airway disease; a cold is a symptom, not a disease. Try a pet cough/anti-inflammatory medicine and keep it warm; see a vet if no improvement.
