My dog played with a frog and now has white drool. Is he poisoned?

Question

My 8 month old golden retriever was messing with a frog outside and I went inside to get shoes and when I came out i Didnt check where the frog went but when I took him inside I saw some white thick drool looking substance on the side of his mouth and I’m not sure what to do because I know he was also grabbing the frog in his mouth and letting it fall and messing with it.

There are toads that are poisonous to dogs, and it may be Pepsi had a toad that was poisonous in his mouth causing these symptoms. The drooling can be a sign of nausea. Rinse his mouth out with cool water, and offer him a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) and white rice in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the drooling continues or he develops other signs such as vomiting, lethargy, and anorexia, have him seen by a vet immediately. Best of luck.
