thanks

Found first one a few weeks ago in my laundry room. Having previously lived in Tucson AZ and Australia strange bugs don't bother me, but the more I looked at this thing the more weird it became. Second one (the one photographed) appeared crawling along my bedroom wall just a couple feet away from me. That's when I decided I need to know what these are. Took the photo to a friend who told me it's an albino black widow (ha!), got concerned that my dogs might get into trouble with it so I came here for help. Thanks again
