Hi, my female dog was or is in heat, she was bleeding and it seemed like she had stopped bleeding, her and my male dog mated a couple days ago and then again they mated the next day and she is bleeding again or still, is this right? Thanks!

Yes, mating does not affect the length of the heat cycle, so she may continue bleeding even after being bred. Dogs can mate several times within a heat cycle, and puppies can even be born with different dads within the same litter.
