Do spiders harm dogs?

[moetchampers 10]

My DDB x falls over her own feet, walks into doors, bangs her head , trips upstairs etc. youd be concerned about her balance or eye sight wouldnt you?

I was ...but she can spot a spider at 100 yards and eat it!!! what id like to know is are spiders poisonous here in uk and can they harm her .....its usually a house spider or a fly she will spot and eat.

No idea, but I do laugh at my dog when he starts randomly snapping into thin air - trying to catch a fly. It's truly comical.

Mine tries to eat escapee crickets all the time, lol.

Spider will do no harm once eaten

My cat is obsessed with flies he's even worked out a top S.A.S manouver to bitch slap them to the ground, then eat them.....can't see how they'd be that tasty but doubt it'll do them much harm as long as there wormed regularly ....

Many moons ago when Meg was a young and foolish thing (as opposed to her now old and foolish state) she ate a spider....a second later it was seen crawling back out of her nose .

 

Just thought that I would share that with you all

That's grim

[Moonbird 10]

It was both gross and grim I can vouch for that

My sons still talk about it I think they may have incurred lasting emotional trauma from it
