Generally tegus aren't supposed to be eating dog food. "just because they can doesn't mean its good for them". In the wild they will eat just about anything they can catch or find. I know there are a lot of high quality dog foods out there, I've recently switched my dogs to Orijen. I've sort of been wondering if it would be ok to feed a tegu, some of the higher quality food. I'm not sure if the more tegu savvy people were referring to all dog food or just stuff like alpo. I don't think you need to worry if you've checked over the ingredients. I wouldn't continue feeding the tegus dog food unless some of the more knowledgeable people on here approve.
