A Dragon With A Beard?

That sounds kinda crazy to me, but it’s a real live true pet.  There are bearded dragons living in homes all across North America.  One of you neighbors could actually own a bearded dragon.  I’ve seen pictures of them before, but never actually got close enough to pet one.  Probably because no one I know has ever owned one.  They are kinda freaky looking things.  I mean basically, they’re little dragons with the funny looking bunch of spikes under the chin that gives them the bearded portion of their moniker.  I couldn’t imagine having one in my hope, as they fall under the category of snakes and lizards, which to me are just creepy.  The pets I prefer, are tropical fish, or something fuzzy like hamsters, dogs or cats.  I suppose I’m ore of a dog person than anything.  But even a few years ago that wasn’t the case.  My kids kind of convinced me otherwise.
