How fast would you say your frogs are? And how often do they jump a long distance? I’ve always wanted frogs but I’m terrified of reptiles/amphibians that move crazy fast. I’m mainly worried that when I go to open the enclosure or take them out for some reason, they’ll get away from me, and get eaten by my dog.

Hi! 😀🐸

The Stickyfrogs can jump quite a way, but they usually think about it for quite a while first and and I don’t think I would generally call them fast.

Usually they also jump at you!

You will definitely need to keep your dog securely locked out of the room if you are opening the tank for any reason. 

It might be a good idea to visit a store or Expo to have a turn at handling some of the animals you are interested in to see how they move! 😊🐸

Voigt will demonstrate “running away” for you!

Consider toads! Most of them can’t jump nearly as far as frogs. 

Something like a pacman frog might also work, one of the really fat frogs that are similar to toads.
