Found frog in pool

We looked it up ourselves and we're pretty sure it was a Gray Treefrog.

Yes, that's a gray treefrog. Sadly the frog will probably be a little damaged from the water, maybe not too much since you say there's not much chlorine and it wasn't there long.

You can make a frog log if frogs falling into your pool is a common problem. Just a flat floating foam tile with angled edges that the frog can climb onto.

I have no idea how long the frog was in there. Hopefully not too long but he was awfully bloated looking. I hope he lives.

We've had the pool up for a year and this is the first time I've found a frog in it but I'll definitely make something just in case. It was pretty upsetting when I thought he was dead.

Put it in some fresh water to flush out the chemicals! My biggest, healthiest gray tree frog was found as a tiny froglet on the inside edge of a pool. Given the position she was in (the pool had a lip so she probably couldn't have just climbed down), she almost certainly survived a plunge into the chlorine. I've also found an extremely bloated spring peeper in a swimming pool, which gradually recovered when I put it in a cup of water.
