What are you doing with your Colombian?
And since you have a zoo already, your tegu should fit in just fine - so long as you keep it separated from the rest of the animals that inhabit your virtual eco-system.

My reds and argentine b&w get along fine with the cat,big chickens,the dogs and small children.But I would be careful around small birds or rodents,anything that they might be able to fit in their mouth might prove to be very tempting. Also keep an eye on your new tegu that it doesn't get bullied or injured by any of the other animals. Personally I would not leave them unsupervised.

I just keep my tegus separated for the most part. The roam on the back porch and if i supervise them, the back yard. If the dog walks by, it's no big deal. They will probably eat your sugar gliders if given a chance. Just use common sense.

Anything could happen,.. how well you know your dogs, their breed and training will have a lot to do with it. On the other hand cats are natural predators more so than some dogs. We have members that have had their tegus killed by their cat or dog.
It doesn't take much for either one to do damage, you may be better off just keeping them separated.

I do not think he gives receipts. i think the best thing to a receipt that you have is your bank statement stating that it was a successful transaction. I say this because i did not get one either. i would not worry about that. i would ask for one if you are worried.

Correction, I received a paypal response after paying the deposit. that was sort of like a receipt... good enough for me.

Tegus can do well pets. They are rarely aggressive and if need be an adult tegu can prove to be fierce enough to defend itself from any animal 20-60 pounds in size. Apart from that any young tegu should be heavily monitored around cats which are quite predatory in nature and adults shouldn’t be around hunting dogs or dogs with strong prey drive. Really once you’re tegu is full grown you can allow it to roam around most common pets although I will say there’s have been recorded instances of wild tegus predating upon modest size animals and I’ve heard of a case where a tegu killed someone’s iguana that acted territorially aggressive with it. So just be smart about it when they’re around things smaller than them.
