Meet Jiaolong – The Crocodile Dragon Seeking a Forever Home
Jiaolong, meaning “Crocodile Dragon” or “Flood Dragon,” is a striking 5-year-old male Chinese Water Dragon with a commanding presence. Unlike many in his species, he’s surpassed the delicate early years and is thriving, ready to bring his unique charm and beauty to a forever home that understands his needs.
Chinese Water Dragons are often misunderstood and taken on as beginner pets. However, with the right information and patience, Jiaolong can make a wonderful companion for any dedicated reptile enthusiast. Chinese Water Dragons like Jiaolong can live up to 15 years when given the correct environment and care, so he could be a part of your life for many more years to come.
Jiaolong is an active, inquisitive dragon who loves to climb, explore, and swim. He’ll need a large, humidity-controlled enclosure with plenty of vertical space, as well as sturdy branches and enrichment items to keep him active and happy. At 80% humidity, he’s at his best, and though glass enclosures are common, they can lead to nose-rubbing injuries in his species. If his new family prefers to create a custom habitat, the rescue is ready to assist with setup tips and advice.
Diet-wise, Jiaolong loves bugs and can’t get enough! He also enjoys the occasional fish, which makes mealtime an exciting event for him. With proper diet, habitat, and gentle handling, he can become a trusting, social, and fascinating pet.
Jiaolong is ready to find a patient and knowledgeable family who will take the time to understand him, treat him well, and give him a long, joyful life.

Small Breed Rescue of Southern California is an all-volunteer, non-profit, foster based organization funded by donations. We are dedicated to rescuing small breed dogs, small reptiles and select exotic pets primarily from public shelters and other rescues. Being committed to keeping administrative expenses low, virtually every dollar received goes directly to the care of the animals.
Our rescue is uniquely structured to rehabilitate animals who are at high risk of euthanasia due to manageable behavioral challenges, such as dogs who are declining in a shelter environment or reptiles / exotics that have not been properly handled over their lifetime. We develop relationships to accommodate these specific assistance needs, which is what differentiates us from other rescue organizations.
We have assembled a foster team that consists of experienced individuals who bring particular skills from the animal welfare industry. This enables us to grow, educate and enrich our foster community in a manner that supports our specific needs and those of our animals.
Our group remains interested in and committed to the welfare of the animals beyond the adoption process by providing education, training tips, resource references, and an open door policy to our adopters.
