Did you specify you wanted a P. adspersus and not just a "regular one" Most wholesale lists simply say "African Bullfrog" and to be honest I'm not sure that all that many stores know there are different kinds much less know the difference. Also, how do you know the price for the "regular one" is not the same price as the dwarf? If he told you it was the one that gets huge then yeah you should be able to get your money back but if all he said was its a "regular one" maybe not.
I'm sure that when people order an African Bullfrog they usually want P. adspersus but it is important to make sure anyone ordering them also knows and knows the difference.
I had a customer get all ticked off at another pet store because the 'Mini Dragon" he bought turned out to be simply a baby bearded. He wanted a P. henrylawsoni and the guy at the store had no idea that there was such a thing as a "mini dragon" He just figured his baby P. vitticeps was what the guy meant by "mini"
Hopefully you can get a refund but I wouldn't be too surprised, if it was a special order, if they offer you a credit instead.
Whenever I do a special order I try to get as specific as possible and if someone asks me to order something by a common name I have never heard of I won't do it unless they can give me a scientific name. If you think its bad with frogs you should see the fish side of it.
