The caiman needs higher protein levels than are found in dog food. My advise is to leave the dog food to the dogs. Burris Mills produces chow for crocodilians if you want to feed dry food. In my experience, it's messy and smelly and not good for specimens housed indoors, others may have different opinions. The formula is supposed to be good for a balanced meal though.
