Like Goldmali said, it's perfectly normal. Bitches continue in season as normal, whether they've been mated or not. It's no indication of whether or not they are in whelp. If you took her back to the stud, chances are she wouldn't stand anyway. If she did, you wouldn't know when the puppies were due (to 1st or 2nd mating) & could run into problems because of that.
