I have lived in this house for 18 years with my poodles, and I think almost every other year we have a pup lick a frog or toad. I put up an acre fence to keep them safe and the darn frogs and toads keep getting in. |
When Sissy had her "toad incident" our vet confirmed there are no poisonous frogs/toads in Michigan. However, the secretion they use as their protection can make a tiny dog very sick really quick and begins with the foaming at the mouth. I think because Sissy had the toad completely in her mouth, with the toad's hind end toward her throat, she swallowed quite a bit of the excretion as the little buggger squirted it!!!!!
