A dogs normal heat cycle is around every 6 months. Some dogs will start a little longer or it could happen a little sooner. My female bleeds during each cycle. Their cycle does not change even if they have a litter. For example, If a dog comes into heat in January and gets pregnant and has a litter her next cycle would be in June. After giving birth it is not unusual for the new momma to bleed for a few weeks. This is due to her giving birth to the pups.

Dogs don't have menstrual cycles. That is to say, they don't bleed like human girls. But, the "heat" they go into is normally once a month. Of course, they are able to become pregnant again directly after whelping, so, watch out for that.

Actually, dogs DO bleed like humans. My English Coonhound is, right now. My gyp currently has 10-day-old puppies and came in heat today. Dogs also are not going to get pregnant unless they are bleeding. Typically, dogs will go into heat twice per year, although some may only have one heat cycle per year, and some may have more. As far as going into heat after whelping, it depends on the dog. Many factors can affect this, such as age, environment, health, etc.

NO!! Dogs DO NOT have menstruation cycles. ONLY HUMANS have menstruation cycles. They may bleed after giving birth, but that does NOT mean they're menstruating.

Dogs do not have "periods" as such. They do go into heat twice a year, and during that one- to two-week period, when they are receptive, there is some bleeding, but it is not a period as it is in humans.

It is better to wait atleast 6-8 months before she can have another litter. A 12 month gap would be even better. The greater the gap between her litters the healtheir the puppies would be. Puppies of dogs that have a litter once every 6 months have been known to be considerably weak when compared to dogs that have litters once every 12-15 months.
