Our dragon, Puff

Hello Crow Wing Families, 

We have some sad news.  Our bearded dragon, Puff, died yesterday.  He appears to have suffered either a stroke or a heart attack.  His symptoms match those described for a cardiac incident exactly, and heart problems are very common for dragons in captivity.  Students noticed his distress yesterday and were concerned he was choking.  We will make it clear to them that Puff did not choke and that nothing we could have done would have been helpful to Puff.  Even rushing him to a vet would have taken too long to make a difference.  Puff was quite old, was a steadfast member of our community, and will be greatly missed.  

We will bury Puff in the garden this morning and have some community time to help students say goodbye.  

Thank you for your support, 

Cate and Andrea
