There are two ways to get iguanas eatting what they should be.. Immediate switch and gradual... You need an immediate switch... I have two iguanas that were fed dog food and one is currently going thru kidney failure... It isnt plesant. Make the switch right away. Mixing things like the canned iguana food with greens may assist in this.

Start tomorrow by just offering the fresh salad... Do that for a few days... The iguana may very well take to the correct diet... Give it like 3 days... If it doesnt take to eatting pick up some of the evil iguana canned food. Mix it 50/50 and see if that helps... As the iguana eats, slowly remove canned foods til diet is all fresh...

Also get the iguana in for a vet visit as soon as possible and have a blood test and fecal work up...
