    I agree with Kurt, that looks like a species of Rana to me. It's certainly no toad that I've ever seen.

    It resembles the River Frog (Rana heckscheri), but it's hard to tell. How big is it? Because it also looks similar to a juvenile Pig Frog (Rana grylio), which, when full grown are nearly as large as a bullfrog.

    The larger frog/toad... Right now he's about... 3 to 3.5 inches. He has large webbed feet on his back feet.

    Here's a few more photo's I took from earlier.

    Well, the dorsolateral ridges rules out Lithobates grylio.

    Dang! Now you got me curious. It's tympanum looks too small to be a juvenile River Frog or Bullfrog. Also, the River Frog has a fairly dark underside with some light markings. From what I can see in the photos, it's underside appears fairly light colored.

    What about a Dusky Gopher Frog (R. areolata aesopus)? Mature specimens are around 3 inches and since it was held at the pet shop for some time, it probably isn't a juvenile.
