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.
It is rare for older dogs to experience bleeding during their heat cycle. However, if you notice any unusual bleeding in an older dog, it is important to consult a veterinarian to rule out any potential health issues.
Yes, 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.

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.
