My beardie girl is 12 now and she's been letting me know that she's done with the educational programs I do which means it's time to get and train up a new dragon. I love the look of the leather backs but I do have cats in the house. Wyrwrenth has never had an issue protecting herself and letting the other animals know who's boss but how protective are the smaller scales of the leather backs? If anyone has experience with adults, I'd love to hear it. I'll be buying the new dragon in person as I prefer to buy based on personality rather than looks especially as it will have to deal with other pets and then kids as well. Thanks for any input on this.
