You know you're a beardie owner when...

...When You go to the vet more often than you do the doctor (vet last year: 7-8 times. Doctor last year: 1 time). :mrgreen:

...and When 90% of the things you talk about in conversations are your dragon.

-HippieLizards.

Yep. Me too. Lousy health insurance and there's nothing much they can do for me anyway, but I've got a minimal safety net in case I need to go to the emergency room with a runaway infection, or if I take a flop on the ice and break my arm, or whatever.

Meanwhile, our beardie has an appointment with the vet for his annual exam later this month, even though his human "mommy" does not do yearly physicals. I only go to the doctor if I'm really reEEALLly sick. :roll:

So I guess we take better care of our dragons than ourselves... :wink:

Lol, same here. and I'm pretty sure that that ONE time last year was just to pick up documents. :lol:

The post office has your cell on speed dial so you can come pick up your “bugs” ASAP and when you walk in someone yells “Thank God the Dragon Lady is here to get rid of that box!” LMAO

When you looked like you had a rough round with a thorne bush but, in reality, you were just chilling with your dragon.

Very Handsome guy you have there! I think he knows it too.

Lol, Yep. Beardies can get a bit rough! :lol: and Also when your vet is the number one contact for speed-dial. :lol:

How about if you don't even need to have your vet's phone number on speed-dial because you have it memorized :wink:

Lol, Yep.

You know you're a beardie owner when..........

You have scratch marks EVERYWHERE!

(I hope this isn't only me)

You are not alone my friend, When I'm dealing with a skittish beardie it looks like i've been attacked by a panther. :lol: :roll:

You know you're a beardie owner when you construct a window watching platform for your lizard when he outgrows the original ledge.

You also know you're a beardie slave when you get weird looks from your neighbors for standing in the yard holding a leash that doesn't seem to be attached to anything from their angle.

Oh my goodness.. The first one is so true.. The second one happened to me a day ago. :lol:

And You know you're a beardie owner when these are some things overheard during the day:
"No! Don't sit on Loki!"
"Dude Why are you trying to mate with my flip flop?!"
"No no no! My toe isn't a roach(Ouch)!"
"Which beardie out is the one trying to eat the couch right now?"
"No Daisy No! Your tail isn't a superworm!"
"Ok Cisco, It's time you learned that Legos aren't food."
and "Daisy, There's a difference between pictures of bugs and greens then the real thing." :roll:

These are just some of things overheard during random times of the day. :lol: :roll:

and Also when your watching a show and a Reptile shows up on the screen and One of the beardies explode with head bobbing, black bearding, and other ways to show their dominance. :roll:

SMH... they need sooo much attention! Our little princess Peaches is rotten to the core, and she is like, " Draw me like one of your French Girls!" So demanding!
