Each bitch is different, one of my GSD's didn't come in until she was 15 months and after that used to only come in once a year until she was spayed :) Don't worry it will happen when she is ready. But if you are that concerned about it speak to your vet.
I have heard that bigger breeds do come in later, but never having had a smaller breed dog I don't know how true this is.
