Some dogs will continue to have "split seasons", and for that reason there is a specific way that this dog should be bred (if your choice is to breed) The problem is that if the dog is bred normally it could have pups of two different ages which is almost always fatal to the pups and can be fatal to the ***** as well.
A split season is only ovulating on one side at a time. So the idea is to only allow the ***** to become pregnant on the one side.

Hi!!
A dog will have some discharge from the vaginal area when she is in heat and this discharge is usually light and lasts 1-2 weeks. Most dogs that are in heat continue with their normal activity level and eating pattern. Most dogs cycle twice a year.
please look: http://www.askedweb.com/askedweb/What_To_Expect_When_Your_Dog_Is_Expecting/ - What To Expect When Your Dog Is Expecting
A female dog can also have a discharge from her vaginal area when she has a uterine infection, or bladder infection, that could simulate a heat cycle. When that happens the discharge may be quite large and the dog acts quite ill.
A veterinary examination will help determine if she is either in heat or sick and then appropriate steps can be taken.

Sounds like she's having a split heat. Usually happens in young females. Usually no treatment is required and her next cycle will be normal. Her second cycle, the one she's in now, will be the one where she'll go into standing heat and needs to be kept away from all males.

It's possible she never went out of heat to begin with. Dogs are in heat for about a month. Stress can cause irregular heat patterns, though and if there are other female dogs in the area that are in heat, they could draw her in prematurely. Get her fixed ASAP when she stops bleeding.

Wow those other answers were useless... Like "get it fixed" is the answer to all the problems of the world. Retards.
Either way, I cannot tell you because I am not a vet and have never dealt with a dog in heat, but that doesn't seem normal, so please do see your vet.

Take her to the vet. It could be a urinary tract infection, which will cause her to have blood in her urine.
It could be an ovarian cyst. If this is the case, she will have to be spayed to remove it.
It could be a malformation of the womb or the ovaries. She would have to be spayed, if this is the case, also.

That is a bit of a hurry!
Spay her. That will save you all a LOT of trouble.

Please take her to the vet. And consider getting her spayed, unless you are a breeder...
