Re: Pup found something else this time
looks like the standard toads I have at my place. Watch out though. when I was a kid one of our dogs got a hold of one, ate it and died. (well lots of our dogs got them at one point in time but only one died)
The animal will foam at the mouth and scratch at it's mouth and later die. cute little buggers but nasty to pets. :)

Sure that dog's not a retriever LOL.

Maybe a Cane toad??
Do they have cane toads in USA??
I no they have TONS in Australia. Steve Irwin talked about them once I think!
I dont think we have them in Canada but who knows...
Re: Pup found something else this time
It doesn't look like my cane toad. Yes they have cane toads in the US. It looks like the normal toads I find around here. I believe they are called a "Common Toad" or a " Woodhouse Toad" , Anyone corecct me if I'm wrong. I'm not real up on toad info.
Love the pics!:)
Re: Pup found something else this time
I believe it is an american toad (Bufo americanus) Very popular in the US. It can't be a woodhouse's (Bufo woodhousi woodhousi) because they don't occur near Chicago, though a fowler's toad does which at one point was names Bufo woodhousi fowleri, but now just fowleri. but she is Big and fat!
