Should I be concerned about his morning vomiting, and what can I do to manage it?

My 16-year-old Australian Shepherd, Lil Bit, is experiencing dry heaves and coughing but nothing comes up. She was given leftover rice about 12 hours ago. She doesn't seem to be in pain when I pet her or rub her stomach. Could this be related to heartworm, as she is behind on her heartworm preventative?
