Virtually all breeds have two oestrus cycles each year. Initially, the vulva swells and within a day there is a clear discharge, which becomes tinged with blood the next day. This discharge increases in intensity and then slowly diminishes, ending after about ten days. During this time the female becomes more alert and urinates frequently, leaving signals of her impending willingness to mate. Ovulation takes place soon after the discharge has stopped. Only now will the female accept mating. Hormonal changes occur regardless of whether a female is pregnant, which is why there is no simple blood or urine tests to confirm impending motherhood.

∙ 12y agoYes, some older dogs will spot blood during their heat cycle. It's normal, albeit annoying to manage. There are commercially available "pads" or "diapers" that you can try putting on your female dog during her heat if the spotting becomes a problem.
However, if your female dog has never spotted during her heat cycle before but is starting to now, you should have her examined by your veterinarian as it may be a sign of cancer or infection.

How do you stop the heat of a female dog during breeding time?
The only way to completely stop a heat cycle is to have your dog spade. If you don't want to spade her she will continue to have heat cycles and if you don't want her to be bred keep her inside and away from male dogs when the bleeding part of the cycle starts. Keep her inside for up to 2 to 3 weeks from the time the bleeding cycle starts.

Why does your 15 year old dog still has cycle?
I will assume you are talking about the dog's heat cycle. A female dog does not have a menopause, as people do. Their cycles continue their entire life, though in it's elder years the cycle can become less predictable as to when it occurs. A female dog no matter it's age can become pregnant, but that doesn't mean it's healthy for an older dog! This is why female dogs need to be spayed, preferably before the onset of their first heat cycle.
