the reason dog food or cooked chicken etc are not recommended to feed to bearded dragons is simple. Those kinds of food are not good for them. Bearded dragons eat insects and vegetation in the wild and their bodies are geared to digest these kinds of food.
Dog food is specially formulated to meet the nutritional needs of dogs, not reptiles and with several kinds of pelletted food made especially for dragons, there certainly isn't any need to consider feeding dogfood to them.
The ideal thing bearded dragon breeders try to do is feed as close a diet as a bearded dragon would naturally get as possible, to ensure they are as healthy as they can be. It's the same with responsible pet ownwers, we all try to ensure our pets are getting the proper nutrition so they remain healthy and live long and happy lives.
