[Dailydrool] mastitis

[Sally King]

Can anyone throw any light on how a 14month-old bitch who has never been in pup and who was given the "morning after" injection following her last season in May (as she went missing for 5 hours and we just don't know if she did or she didn't) could develop mastitis?
  I called round to the XH yesterday with my two and all three bassets immediately went tummy-up competing for bellyrubs.
  As I went to stroke Tessie, I noticed 3 of her dugs were inflamed, one mildly, one fairly mildly and a bit pink and one quite swollen, hot and red.
  She didn't appear to be in pain, but did seem pleased I'd noticed. Of course I told her dad to take her to the vet, but does anyone have any ideas as to how or why  this can have happened?
