Toads secrete a protective "juice" that is an irritant and in some types (Bofu I believe, in Florida) highly toxic. If the dog mouths one, all types of foam will come out. I'd squirt some saline eye wash (desighned to wash out the goo) in the eyes then observe for a while. If it appears to get worse or even no better, I'd make an appointment with my vet.

Nothing to worry about, it was probably a defense tactic from the frog to escape. he probably gave your puppy a dose of repellent. wash your dogs eye out every little while and it should get better. Try to get him to a vet for a checkup as i dont know how leathal the repellent was, but generally frogs trying to escape release a bad tasting, bad smelling liquid spray so that the animal that has caught them will release them.

"I have a 10 month old puppy. He was playing with a frog out side. He started to rub his eye's until they were"
Umm... I don't get that question.

Was it a toad? They secrete some sort of foul-tasting something when they are in danger. My dog has picked them up before. There was foaming and rubbing his face and everything. Just give him plenty of fresh clean water to wash his mouth out with. If you notice any symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, bleeding, or anything just call your local vet's office.

rinse his eyes out with warm ,clean water. if he starts drooling alot or being sick take him to the vet! most frogs and toads are poison to other animals

"until they were..." PUFFY? SWOLLEN? RED?
I'm guessing he probably played with a poisonous variety of frog.
I'd take him to the vet if I were you.
