There are approximately 8,724,236,246 toads living in our yard. This is one of the bigger ones. He/she is about the size of my fist and afraid of NOTHING. You can flash a camera at him, let a dog sniff him, and even stomp in his vicinity and he will not budge. Alexis, however, is deathly afraid of the silly little toad.

This is a good thing.

The toad lives under our front porch. Alexis won't go outside if I tell her I saw it out there. It's like having bars on the windows and doors, except I didn't have to spend a single penny. With a whole lot of luck, the Toad Trick will last for about 15 more years.
