A dog generally shows a return bleed 2 to 3 days after mating, which is normal and suggests a higher success rate, so do not worry. During this time avoid baths, keep the environment stable, limit exercise and boost nutrition.
The bleed lasts only a few days; if it continues long, take the dog to a vet.
