Great photos of the yorkie looking at the dead frog, how intense is that?!  |
Sounds poisonous to me. But hey I'm not expert. I want to say that it is the secretions from the frog's skin that reacts with the dog causing them to foam. Just be careful. If there is vomiting or any behavioral changes I would take them to the vet asap. I don't know if there is an antidote or something.
