11-11-11 - Jill sent this note with these photos:  Here are a few pix of Bitz in her "anti-lactating" shirt :-) She has no milk left but that doesn't keep the pups from biting on her teats and trying to get some milk! It's a T-shirt that I run a ribbon through the hem and cinch it up tight with all her teats safely tucked inside. She loves it because she can play with them w/o dancing around and trying not to get hurt.
