Tegus love to try new foods, and that one encounter with it won't hurt anything. I would not make it part of its regular diet though.

AS for kibble for dogs and raw diets, really it depends alot on the individual dog. I have one dog who health was terrible from complications with a gentic problems. We tried to help keep wieght off and help with joint issues with vet diets, sci diet, homemade diets and een raw diets, nothing seem to help. For four years we tried different things. Then a boss of mine gave me a freee 30lb bag of food he thought might work and sure enough in a month i noticed amazing results.

Got a pup a few years back and putting him on raw food for 5 months resulted in gas, bloating, vomiting and just a misarable time for him. Again put him on a good quality kibble and no problem. Both dogs are beagles so they seem to do well on most foods as long as they are low in fat and no corn.

I've seen some dogs live 18 years on dog chow and alpo with no health problems, i've seen the same with raw diets. Really the diet of a dog should be dictated the individal, same with tegus.
