No,he should be fine.Just wash his mouth out with plain water and give him a few pieces of bread with a little milk to absorb any toxins.The really poisonous toads are in Florida and Australia,the huge Marine,or Cane toads.My cousin's Lab,Bo, licks toads all the time! He doesn't hurt them,but the toxin will give them a little buzz,so we think he is addicted to them!
Are you in South Africa,then? You are lucky to have leopard toads,as they are an endangered species.I hope the toad wasn't hurt.Here is a link to a site with a lot of information on them.
