Gleni said:Ann nearly all Bufo have poison in their skin and in their parotid glands on their shoulders. Luckily most dogs do not mouth frogs and toads. Some dogs don't die but can get addicted to the hits they get from the adrenalin in the concoction - terriers are notorious for mouthing.

Elaine we are overrun with B. marinus introduced from the new world a 100 years ago now. The introduction is still a sad thing. I have several in my garden.

Thanks Glen!
@jmorth - If you keep a water bowl outside for Plato make sure to empty it & bring it in each night. These toads like to sit in water & often hang out in pet water bowls especially at night. Plato is a big dog but small dogs can die before you can ever get them to the vet so just make sure to keep an eye out.
