So my brother absolutely DECKED OUT the house for Halloween again this year: giant spiders overtaking the porch, floor-to-ceiling webs, several skeletons caught inside, green porch lights. Fabulous.
Now, the doggo was NOT a fan. He did everything in his power to avoid the spiders and their webbing, and would occasionally steal a bone from their midst in protest. But I realized that whenever I took him out to the front yard to potty and he finished, he would actively wait for me to step inside the house first before following me in. He usually charges inside and waits for me to catch up, but for the entire month of October he waited for me to go first.
And now that the spiders are in hibernation once more he's back to his normal routine. Guys... was my dog protecting me from the big scary spiders??? 🤣
