Dog food has very different composition from what a beardie should eat. If you look at the protein/fat/fibre values, there are senior dog foods that would match in protein, but be way, way too high in fat for a beardie, and far too low in fibre. There are other additives that are fine for dogs, but may not be fine for reptiles as well. If anyone has ever had a dog get into chicken feed and die, they've learned the hard way about animals, similar feeds, and additives... poultry feed can be quite similar to dog food, but certain additives that are good for chickens is highly toxic to dogs.
