    Aww, poor baby. Far as I can tell you're doing well. There are only two things I'm a little concerned about, maybe someone more knowledgeable here can tell me if these are a problem: 1. rinsing him in water from the shower/faucet that isn't dechlorinated. 2. Rubbing his back a little much maybe. Oils and salts in human skin aren't really good for frogs, maybe having an imperfect shed would be better than being exposed to them quite so much.

    dj1, Pogo has never really been a climber for as long as we've had him, and when his previous owner had him. His previous owner had taken many classes on amphibian/reptile science and hand made his tank herself to suit his specific needs

    irThumper, Thanks!!! I just read your comments Even though I haven't been using gloves, I am very gentle when helping him shed. I let the water do most of the work, and if there's a piece that the water gets loose then I'll carefully remove it the rest of the way.
