I would say yes,she's either in heat or coming into heat, this is a 3 week process, and yes they do bleed, I had two unspayed girls, my experience with heat was, they always were cleaning them selves, so for me there was very little blood, I did keep my sofa and bed covered with an old sheet or blanket, they would stain it, but it was never dark blood. I pray you have no intact male in your house. Be extremely careful if you have to walk her for potty, male dogs can smell a female in heat from miles away.
