My bullie had Mastitis after having pups that were 9 days old.. Her teets will be very warm to the touch and there will be a discoloration coming out of them. My vet only charged the $27.00 office call and then she was put on 500mg. of Cephalexin, also you will want to put warm compresses on the about every 2-4 hours and then you can gently squeeze her infected teet/teets to release some of the infection.

I did a search for treatment for that and i came up with this. It works for horses but i dont know about dogs.
Mastitis can be cured within a single day using Castor Oil alone and I recommend that a stop is put to all Veterinary treatments that result in damage to the mare and the foal and extreme difficulty with re-establishing normal feeding.
Cost would be less than $10 total.
All you need do is to massage Castor Oil onto the mares teat and leave the foal locked away from her for 2 or 3 hours before washing the teat to wash off the oil and allowing the foal to suckle. After suckling repeat the procedure two or three more times and the mastitis will be cleared.
Note there is no danger to the foal from ingesting the curd even if it has become infected, the foals stomach acid deals with this without any danger to itself.
Castor Oil is the most effective drawing agent and the above program works every time.

Mastitis is an infection that mostly FEMALE dogs get. In rare cases, male dogs are affected with this disorder. However, this is a serious medical condition and hence should be treated immediately to reduce the chances of medical complications in your dog. If there is no improvement then you need to return to the vet.

Depends on the vet, but likely just the cost of the office visit and antibiotics.

Its going to vary depending on the severity and the vet.

Hard to say. Vet's prices vary just withing towns, let alone nationwide. You could give them a call to ask what to expect.

I would call the vets office and ask them. Prices vary from vet to vet.

Okay, the answer about castor oil is not correct. Anitbiotics are necessary and when caught early the treatment should not cost a lot.

Compresas bien frias de malva, no le dejes aplicar hormonas, la quitan instantaneamente pero cristalizan con el consiguiente peligro de cancer mamario
