Comparing Bearded Dragons to Other Pets
Bearded dragons can be a great alternative to other pet options. They don't require a lot of space and can be much cheaper than other pets.
Dogs, for example, need a lot of space as they are much bigger and need space to exercise. They need a lot of care and attention. Bearded dragons on the other hand, don't require walks and can be left alone for longer periods of time. Dragons also don't need much space as they stay in their enclosure. Also, generally, the cost to keep a dog is much greater than the cost to keep a bearded dragon. The upfront cost for a bearded dragon might be considerable as you need to buy a tank, lights, and decoration. However, over the course of their lifetimes, dog food is generally more expensive. It is also likely that you would end up spending more on veterinarian bills with a dog. Additionally, an argument for dogs is that they have unique personalities and become more closely bonded to their owners. However, anyone that owns a bearded dragon will say that their pet has a ver unique and exciting personality.
