Well last night I didn't know my 8 month old puppy Sadie had gotten ahold of my .75" B.schroderi sling . Well the light bulb was burned out in the bedroom (the spider is the living room well suppose to be) Well Roy changed the light bulb and later on I was going to bed. I saw peat moss and a lid on the bed didn't think much of it thought Sadie may have found a empty container. Well I look and there is a spider on my bed and its the .75" B.schroederi . Got into delicup and it looks to be ok except its kinda has a bald butt now from kicking hair. So changing a light bulb can save a life in this case lol.

dogs

You know, you see all the posts on here about cats getting T's, but not too many about dogs! I have to be really careful with T's in my house too, my dog is obsessed with bugs! I didn't really think too much about it until she ate my mealworm colony once (grossssss). She recently got onto the kitchen table so she could reach a sack of crickets up on a plant shelf 5 feet off the ground! I had crickets everywhere (she apparently only wanted to eat half of them). She also hunts wasps relentlessly in the summer, biting their heads to kill them. My T's are all behind acrylic, so she can't get to them, and is actually scared of the big ones luckily! Darn busy border collies! What kind is yours?

This explains everything.
Lock up the T. tanks. There's nothing else for it...;)
Glad your T. survived this time. :rolleyes:

I'm with Rochelle.Both dog types are known for intelligence.Intelligence int he absence of supervision/stimulation=rotten behavior.I have a Jack Russel TERROR.Spiteful breed....he's eaten medication,vitamins,permanent markers,diamond earrings,remotes,shoes,leather belts,irreplaceable pictures,innocent creatures he managed to get out of pretty secure cages,ant poison,candy,chocolate,chicken bones,he was hit by a truck.....he just won't die...he's evil and I'm scared...someone help!!!!:eek:
Think of having a 2 year old that can jump 6' and that has the ability to plot revenge...oh, it's no joke ladies and gentlemen...terriers will one day rule the world.

As a side note...the dog belongs to my partner.I do not neglect him and leave toxic and dangerous things in his reach in an effort to get rid of him(I've been tempted....doggy want some antifreeze...rat poison...a big pink needle...huh huh?:D), it's that the dog can jump and open cabinets and doors and it is so freakin smart.Yeah...it rules my house.

I btw,have a peaceful and gentle American bulldog...a complete angel:).

LOL!!! My brother has a rat terrier that could be your jack russell's twin. Cute, but very evil little dog with a cast iron digestive system{D .
