Fitting thread right now. I heard my puppy barking out the back last night after being put to bed. I ignored him for awhile (he barks at the frogs in the pond) however, it went on longer that usual, so I went to investigate. What did I find, my puppy playing with a very angry funnel web spider!!!!! Funnel web was squished into oblivion, puppy brought inside while I googled funnel webs and dogs (google is indeed your friend) was very relieved to find that dogs are nowhere near as affected as human to spider bites. I watched him for half an hour (he thought it was great being inside on the bed at 11pm!) and no ill effects. Scared the life out of me though!!!!!
