Yes, but this type of spider is typically nonviolent and poses minimal health risk to humans. Spiny Orb Weaver Spiders do contain venom, but their mouth is so small and their pincers are so weak they cannot penetrate human flesh. Their body spikes are only there to protect them from predators. To continue researching this spider you might also utilize Google; click on images you discover and review the pictures you encounter. You will see there are many variations of this interesting and colorful arachnid.

What kind of spider looks like it has a black head and legs with a grey body with spikes on its back?

The spider you are describing sounds like a spiny-backed orb-weaver spider (Gasteracantha cancriformis). This spider is known for its distinct coloration, with a black head and legs and a gray body with spikes or spines. It is relatively small in size and can be found in shrubs and trees, where it builds its orb-shaped webs.


Is the orb weaver spider dangerous to dogs?

First, it depends on the type of orb weaver. Cross orb weavers, for example, are big and hairy, but they don't bite especially when handled correctly (I know from handling both genders of the cross orb weaver) If you disturb an orb weaver while it is on it's web, the spider will only run to one of the many sides of the web. To find what type I describe the spider in the google images search bar and then I search for what looks the most like the spider that I saw. And if I were you, I would find a reliable source that tells whether or not the spider is dangerous. Thanks for reading! (I love spiders)
