Default Omg!!!!

I let my puppy German shepherd out in the garden last night just before bed, I saw her sniffing about at something I thought was poo. I then looked up at the empy house oposite mine, but when I looked back the dog and the 'poo' was gone. I went in house and guess what? It wasn't poo, here ois a pic of what it tuned out to be:

My german shepherd has brought me loads of these this year but the collie never finds them... I just take them over to the fields and release them, my garden is fully walled with no pond area or water in any of the nearby gardens so I have no idea where they come from!

Very cute!
My sisters cat brought a frog in a couple of months back. Not a fully grown one, and it did'nt have a mark on it.
I checked it over, checked his legs and everything, not a scratch so i put him in a plastic geo thing with some moist moss until the next morning (cause it was late at night), and then later released him into my grandads nice nature pond with the other froggies, away from my cats.

I've put him in a large tub with a water dish and some mud as I think he has an injured leg. I will let him go once he is better. What should I feed him?

They will usually eat crickets but if he gets stressed because he's been taken from the wild and put into a tub it may affect him... he probably would be able to survive just fine if you find a little nature pond or something to take him to

He'd probably do better surviving on his own than having to adapt to wild -captivity - wild unless the injury is severe.

I've give him a good look over and he doesn't seem to be injured that bad so I will be releasing him in a local park tonight. Shame really, he is pretty cute, I wouldn't have minded looking after him for a few weeks. But I guess it's for the best to let him go.
