Dog food, even low fat dog food should be a treat at best, maybe once a week, what it should be eating is fruit, insects and mice depending on how big it is, nothing bigger than its head. This is a healthy diet for a Tegu, the Fruits help the Tegu shed its skin, and the mice/crickets give it the Calcium it needs.
