I can't even hold this guy for more then two minutes before he starts to hiss and puff and thrash about. He likes ot dive bomb off of ANY surface I put him on.. if i piut him on the ground he crawls off somethign just to jump off. He's not like normal dragons.. he was not handled at all when he was a baby and he's been abused by two other owners before me. It just seemed odd to me that you would bath one.

I'm a new owner so I'm not very versed in the ways of the beardie. The force is not with me on this one.. I don't think even the most experienced handler could make this guy calm down.. my friend who is extrmemly excellant with beardies and other animals can't even hold him without him puffing up.

If anyone one wants to come over and try giving him a bath.. feel free.. just dont' let him see your feet.. he HATES feet and it makes him edgy.

he's jsut like an abused child. I feel so bad for him.
