TicksSmall spider with very big bulge?
December 7, 2009
Hi, This is a picture of a bug (spider?) that my mom’s dog brought home. It was in her fur, fell off, and as you can see, mom captured it in a glass. I presume to put it outside. Ever seen anything like it?

Dear Buttongirl,
This is a blood engorged Tick, not a spider. It probably fed off of your mother’s dog before falling to the ground.
