New and need help please, identifying a toad/frog!

[Pepper98]

Hello everyone. I am a newbie! I would like to ask if anyone can identify this toad, (I think it's a toad). We have had them around the house under our hedges for a long time and I never thought anything of it, until my dog bit one! Not sure if she poked it with her nose or bit it. The dog is fine, I looked for drooling, etc... The frog is fine. Here is a picture. Thank you so much. Ps. I live near Crystal river, florida in central/upper florida. Thank you

Hi Pepper,

Welcome to the Frog Forum!

It looks to be the common Southern Toad.

All the best...

Thank you so much. As you can tell by my post, I don't know much about toads... I was worried about my dog and wasn't sure if it could be the Bufo Toad that can be deadly to them. Thanks again, I really appreciate the response

You're welcome.
