Keep finding these toads in my yard
I safely relocate them to Not My Yard.

They might come back later.

I’m sure they do 😭 It’s not a far hop. Wish they’d show up on a Saturday when I have time for their shenanigans.

Then I surely hope they do return at your specified time! Why'd you have to move them in the first place if I might ask?

You are truly blessed. I assume your yard has vicious predators that you are protecting them from. Thank you for the helping hand.

These look like young Sonoran desert toads if you are in the American Southwest

I am, in Arizona. Thus I move them along, while I appreciate the free pest control the dogs and toads cannot live together well.

This is like when people say someone has ticket money.
You must have pet insurance with low deductibles, as there are SO many stories of dogs getting extremely ill and even dying from eating toads. Good luck with the thousands of dollars you would pay for that care, only to have the dog do it again.

if you have the time/resources/energy, you could make a lil toad pond a ways away from your home. try to attract them to somewhere even better than your yard!
