This Dachshund Tasted a Frog and Her Reaction Is Everything
Dogs are curious by nature, and they often end up putting things in their mouths that they regret. Take this Dachshund named Pip, for instance. She spotted a frog in her backyard and decided to go in for a taste test, but it definitely didn't go the way she expected.
Watch as Pip takes a sniff before gently biting the frog on its back. Surprisingly, the frog doesn't even try to hop away, so Pip takes a few more nibbles on it. What happens next is absolutely hysterical and has people watching the clip on repeat!
@helloitsmeheather I guess it didn't taste good. #daschund#frog#fyp

Pip's mom said exactly what the rest of us were thinking: "I guess it didn't taste good." We'll all take the Dachshund's word for it because we're not even tempted to find out for ourselves!

ABC Home & Commercial Services says that when it comes to frogs and toads, it's best to keep your pets away from them. "When bitten or threatened, a toad's skin lets out a bitter taste and odor that burns the eyes and nostrils of its predator. It's the same type of defense mechanism a skunk uses. A toad's venom is highly toxic to your pets and can be deadly if left untreated. Even if the toad is already dead, or your dog drinks out of a water bowl a toad was bathing in, it is still a threat to your dog's health."
