What have you been feeding the frog? What supplements have you been using and how often?

The horned frog book by Vosjoli says they sometimes do this & the only worry is if they do it in their water & drown. He seems to think it's not really a problem...

The difference here is the inclusion of apparent deformation of the front limbs and an inability to burrow. I would strongly suggest a trip to the vet to rule out MBD.
Normally horned frogs doing what is described in de Vosjoli's book behave normally once they are returned to the correct orientation.
