Since the cinemas got replaced by a pet store and you can buy dragons, doesn't mean you don't have to look after it. In fact, you do need to look after it, just like the puffles in Club Penguin, so here are some tips.
How do I buy a dragon?
First go to the West Market Street by opening your map. Then the pet shop will be there, so walk in. After that, there will be a panda called Izzy. Izzy is a Pandanda Resident, and is also the one who sells dragons. Click on her and then say buy dragons. You can pick a dragon, they come with lots of colours.
NOTE: If you click on Izzy there will also be an icon where you can adopt dragons. Be careful because if you adopt a dragon it goes back to Izzy and you can't get it back.
Dragon tips:
After you have bought your dragon don't straight away think that you've lost it, it's been automatically delivered to your treehouse. (Dragons can only be bought by members. On Free Elite Member Days non-members can buy dragons but will not be able to walk them)
The dragon will be in an egg inside a nest in your treehouse. The best ways to look after it is to often heat it and give it love. After three days the egg will crack, and in approximately one week the egg will hatch.
When your dragon has hatched from the egg, you can only give it love, rest it, view it's profile or feed it. You need to look after your dragon by resting it, making it happy, and giving it strength. Obviously if you want its rest to go up, just rest it. If you want to make it have more strength, apparently you need to feed it. In a couple of days your dragon will learn how to dance. Dancing will improve the dragon's Happiness. After a few weeks your dragon will know amazing abilities, like waving, exhaling fire and flying. These tricks can be used to perform in Pet Shows :D
Feeding process:
There are 2 types of food you can feed your dragon:
Flint Nibbles
D-Chow
Feeding your dragon Flint Nibbles increases the dragon's strength faster than the D-Chow. It can also make the dragon exhale a small bit of fire after it eats it. However to feed your dragon you must pay coins. Flint Nibbles are for 7 coins, and D-Chow are for 5 coins
