Hi there! No need to panic. Wolf spiders are generally harmless to cats and dogs. While their bite can be a bit painful, it's unlikely to be more dangerous than a bee sting.
Here’s what you might need to watch for:
In most cases, you can simply clean the bite area with some soap and water and keep an eye on your pet for any unusual behavior. Encourage them to drink water and monitor for any concerning symptoms.
If you notice severe swelling, trouble breathing, or vomiting, it’s time to call the vet, although severe reactions are rare. Basically, if your pet seems really uncomfortable or something seems off, please give your vet a call.
If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.

It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
