A cow will never dry up if you keep milking her. That's the bottom line.

How long before a cow dries up after giving birth?

She will dry up after her calf is weaned or you stop milking her. So, typically, she will dry up 6 to 10 months after giving birth, if she is kept to produce milk for that period of time. If she has produced a dead calf and you don't have any serrogate calves you can put on her, or have no use to use her for milk production, then she should dry up after a few days to a couple weeks.

Is it possible for a cow to breed two weeks after giving birth?

Yes, but it's highly unrecommended. This is because the uterus needs time to fully complete involution (shrinking back to normal size) and for the cow to go back into her normal cycling. The first few heats after giving birth are shorter and more irregular than if she were back in her normal estrous cycle. This is primarily caused by a nonfunctional or unformed corpus luteum (the part of the cow's ovaries that is responsible for the the development and release of the ovum or egg into the main uterine tract) that hasn't quite or not formed after ovulation, or that died prematurely, and by progesterone levels that have remained too low to keep the cow from coming back into heat. Short cycles are common when a cow is recovering her normal cycling after calving, which can be from 2 weeks to 2 months after giving birth, depending on her body condition, age and breeding. Her firs heat may be followed by another just 7 to 12 days later. The follicles immediately start to grow right after calving, but often take longer especially since she's nursing a calf. It takes from 45 to 80 days for a cow to resume normal cycling (Estrous cycles ever 21 days, estrus period lasts for 24 hours), in which she will be read to be bred again. Cows that lose a calf through abortion, DOA (dead on arrival), or by postpartum causes and dries up her milk, she will return to her normal cycling sooner.

How do you explain a towel gets wetter the more it dries?

It is a play on words. 'Dries' can mean both the act of drying something, or the process of something becoming dry by itself. So while the towel 'dries' something else, it is getting wetter, the opposite of what would happen if a towel 'dries' by being left on a towel rail.
