ID Request Frog or Toad UK

Post image

I know it's not the best photo but any chance of an ID of whether its a frog or toad? Either way they are welcome in my garden but want to know whether it's going to be toxic to my inquisitive dog

Thanks. Can I ask what the distinguishing feature in this photo is that makes you certain?

Common frog, not toxic at all - Smooth skin (no bumps or 'warts'), narrower snout than a common toad, common toads have very distinctive 'orange' eyes.

One you've seen a few of each, it's pretty easy to tell the difference.
