Trouble converting tfam and tped to map and ped files

Hi all, I have tfam and tped files from dog data. I need to convert these to map and ped files for a program I will be using. I've used the code plink --dog --tfile myfile --recode --out myfile and near every variation of that, including other variations such as ls -1 *.tped | sed 's/\_*.tped//'`; do plink --dog --tfile ${file} --recode --out ${file}_ ; done. However, I keep getting my outputted .ped file thats just a bunch of nucleotides in a row like: A A G G A A A G G A A G A G G A C C C A C G A G G G A A G G G G G G A A T T C C G G G G G G T T A A A A A A A A G G A A G A G G A G A G A A G A G G G G C C A A G G G

I am very lost on why this is and how to proceed. I've checked my tfam and tped files and they all appear in the proper format, for example one row in a tped is, 41 chrX_6588777 0 6588777 G A

Any advice is greatly appreciated- thanks!
