I have not had any issues with spiders, but mine has tried twice to eat a porcupine....both attempts were unsuccessful

Thanks Chad - i have switched brands and base product several times, including three different Purina products. The vet says some prescription diet whose cost rivals Fillet Mignon at your favorite ties required bistro MIGHT help. I said retaining products/medicines that work might help as well.
as for porkies- been lucky- Osthaus pointed one once but backed off when called. I had a friend that had a German shorthair that could not resist them, always (incorrectly as you say) figured he would win the next round. one year it was on opening day, and with the resulting issues he missed most of the season.
life with dogs- no matter how much trouble they give us - we miss them terribly when they are gone
