When I was a kid we had a yorkie. Shortly after we moved to florida he got a toad in the backyard. He didn't actually eat it, just bit it. He started foaming at the mouth and we took him to the vet. I don't remember what the vet did, but in the end our yorkie was fine. After that we learned to watch him better when he was outside.

The southern five-lined skink is also dangerous to pets. My cat Roxy had eaten one before I had gotten her. She got very sick. Her owners at the time paid all of her vet bills and then decided they didn't want her anymore. The previous owner got my number from a friend of mine who used to work at the vet clinic and I took Roxy. When I got her she was in bad shape. She fell down a lot, tilted her head almost all the time and drooled. I've now had her 3 years and she's improved, but is still a little off. She no longer drools at all. Her balance still isn't great, but she can walk pretty good, she just can't jump. She can't stand in the litter box too well either, so we have a pee pee pad down for her that she uses. We have to keep her in our bedroom away from the other cats because she is afraid of them.
