A young dragon can be kept if hatched by you yourself and looked after, but as soon as it reaches the age that it can breathe fire and look after itself (not needing an adult figure to care for it like a parent), it would likely try to kill you, no matter how much training you tried putting into it when it was a hatchling.

It is in the nature of dragons to kill other things, they possess a rage and anger that is unequaled by many other beings, this is what makes them bestial monsters. A dragon could be set off by the slightest provokation even if you had trained it as a baby, its natural anger making it impossible to safely handle at all when full grown or nearing maturity.
