I have 2 things to say, I think are important..ok... 3 1.you are doing just great! 2. I had a yearling Sulcata that was blinded by a coil light and have seen so much eye damage here on the forum from them. As far as I am concerned, you need to ****can it immediately. I cannot stress enough how serious it is. ('cept this way) if you don't do anything else we suggest, do that one for the tort, and us...3. Don't buy anything for her from a pet store. Remember, those people are only there to sell you crappy expensive stuff. Go online and either google search around or use Amazon. There's also lllreptile, carolina pet supply and TortoiseSupply. I'll see if I can find them and make you a link. I, and others, use Powersun 100 watt UVB bulbs. Those are hot enough that they are all you need in the daytime. I use a simple black light bulb for night 75 watts at Kmart $3.49. Oh, and 4...Dogs are the biggest predator of captive tortoises. Not because they are mean, just because they are attracted to torts for some reason. ALL dog owners say oh, not my dog he's well trained, or he sleeps with the tort and would never hurt it. Please please please, do a search here on dog chews and read some of the stuff, because you generally have only one chance, the tortoise will either be seriously damaged or dead.

You can use an incandescent bulb for her until you get a safer bulb...
