Anyone who doesn't think the dragon is the ideal pet, can debate me here please? (Without regards to which book is selected from the answer given)

Not as cute as cats, nuff said.

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

That would mean waterbears are better pets than cats?

Also cuteness factor can be overcome with a dragons horde of gold, see Hugh Hefner.

Discworld dragon, LOTR dragon, or Pern Dragon?

In my head I had lotr dragon.

[–] Spacebar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Well, if it's an LOTR dragon, and you're Sauron, then sure. Otherwise, good luck being charcoal.

I mean, they are not really handy to walk

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

So are cats! Or horses, or (theoretical as to this list and discussion) unicorns. Horses and unicorns you can ride, as you could a dragon! Riding > walking 95% p value.
