Shortly after Jenny and I moved into our first home, Ryan had talked Jenny into coming home with a bearded dragon from the pet store. The bearded dragons are a mellow breed of lizards that originates from the Australian deserts, officially known as Pogona lizards. We named him Looby, after our good friend Brian Looby. They are fantastic pets, very docile and family friendly.
