I just wanted to mention that an hour is way too long to soak...10-15 minutes is fine.The dragon can't tell you if he is cold in the water,uncomfortable,etc.It's drinking that will rehydrate,not soaking.They may drink WHILE they soak,but other than that he doesn't need that much time in the water.If you spray him gently on the head [ sometimes it takes up to 30-60 seconds before they realize they should start licking,just spray off on til he starts drinking]That is one way to get them to drink.Hope he does O.K.Animals also sense when they are going "down hill" and may stop eating normal activities until they pass away...if he is very old that might be the start,but you can still try the suggestions mentioned.
