Sweet Lizard

Hey, I was at the pet store the other day and they had this gorgious guy sitting on a girls sholder and she said it was there since 11 oclock and this was at about 5pm. He was so cute and calm and people were petting him every now and then and he didn't seem frightened at all and he was so cute when he'd move and grip his claws into the straps on her cloths and I was just wondering what kinds of lizards had that personality? I'm kind of interested in getting one but I don't think it's a good idea for me at the moment but I'd just like to know for the future

Can you describe what the lizard looke dlike? So we can ID it for ya? My male Chinese Water Dragon was like that, he was very calm and pretty social. Its never the best idea to have a lizard out in public for such long periods of time tho, you wouldnt want to stress him out

he seemed to like it. He seemed so content and all I could think of is Joe having a complete heart attack around that many people. I put my hand near him and he was very interested and just wanted to climb all over anything that moved and he let people touch him and just looked at them and would start walking towards whatever was petting him and the girl said that he never bit anyone before. I can't remember much about him aside from the fact that he had spikes on the top of his head to his tail. And he didn't mind people touching his tail or head or anything.

He was a pretty good size on her sholder and had claws. The girl picked him off her sholder when he got a hold of her bra strip at one point and he started waving his arms and legs around until he got put down again. It was a adult and a fair size fit on her sholder probably about 7 inches long and 2 or 3 inches high. I can't remember what color it was maybe a dark green or a brown

Maybe a mountain horned dragon? The spikes on the top of his head were bigger then his body

Were the spikes in a straight line or all over the place? Did he have a long tail or a shortish one? There are so many variables that it's hard to tell what he could have been.

He had a long tail and he didn't mind people touching it and he had the spikes in one line starting at the top of his head and then they got shorter after his head. He was so sweet and was watching everything that was happening around him.
