Doorway Dragons, Ltd. has served the international community for some 130 years. During this time, we have maintained a sterling reputation for placing only the most mild mannered dragons, griffins, and other creatures in the homes and offices of our clients. And, with the notable exception of the Chihuahua incident in 1928, there have been no reports of serious damage caused by any of our adoptees. Nevertheless, it cannot be too emphatically stated that magical creatures are not tame. Many (e.g., dragons) have natures that preclude complete predictability. Prospective owners of any magical creature would do well to consider the following cautions related to their Doorway Dragon of choice. Dragons No dragon is 100% safe. Although Doorway Dragons, Ltd. only provide dragons that have proven themselves well-mannered and nonaggressive, all owners should maintain a healthy respect for the sharp claws and teeth of all species. Some species do breathe fire, although the juveniles and young adults we place usually are too young to do much damage in this regard. Dragons do occasionally shed their skins, and this can be a nuisance as well as a health hazard to those with asthma or other allergies; if in doubt, please be tested for allergic reactions to Draconis species before adoption! Griffins Griffins are more predictable than dragons, but they still have incredibly sharp claws and beaks. Griffins can cause damage to home furnishings and to mouldings and wooden objects in home, as well as having a fascination with power cords. Please consider "griffin-proofing" your home prior to adoption. Unicorns Unicorns are among our gentlest creatures. However, they often can grow large, and any large animal in a small space can knock objects off of shelves. Unicorn horns are also quite sharp and can do unintentional damage. Unicorns also need considerable space for bedding down and can make quite a mess of a bedroom if not allowed out of doors regularly. Magical Wildlife Although all of our wild creatures are unusual (e.g., many are able to read, and some can help with household tasks), please remember that all of them are wild. Some unexpected behavior can be expected from even the gentlest. If you want your reading elephant to behave like a dog, you may wish to reconsider whether a Doorway Dragons adoptee is for you!
