Given the location, I would guess an Eastern Box Turtle, Terrepene Carolina Carolina

Forest dragon, this is not a tortoise. It is an Eastern Box Turtle, they belong to the American pond turtle family, emydidae.
I can't tell you what specifically it is, but I can tell you it's a "true toad". http://srelherp.uga.edu/anurans/
