The Polliwog
Q: What kind of shoes do frogs wear? A: Open toad.
-- Unknown
From wee little poison dart frogs up to giant bullfrogs, there are lots of kinds of frogs to choose from if you are looking for a frog. But what should you expect from a froggy pet? A lot of that depends on the species, but some of the more common frogs are actually quite sedentary and don't really do much. That is not to say that frogs are not good pets, it is just that owners have to have the right expectations. Frogs as Pets addresses the pros and cons of frogs and list some good beginner frogs.
Oh, the Polliwog is woggling
In his pleasant native bog
With his beady eyes a-goggling
Through the underwater fog
And his busy tail a-joggling
And his eager head agog-
Just a happy little frogling
Who is bound to be a frog.
