I'm not talking about the tiny hatchlings in Dragon Valley, but larger ones. Basically this is an idea for a magic or pets EP. You find this egg during some adventure and can hatch it. The dragon would start off small, about the size of those from DV, but over time would age up much like a normal Sim. By the time they're fully grown, they'd be about the size of a horse.
You could teach the dragon to not burn things down, or have it unleash havoc on your enemies. When it's fully grown, you could jump on its back and it could take you to a Dragon Valley-type secret neighborhood where you learn things like how to care for them better, buy food specifically for them, or find more eggs to hatch.
They would function a lot like pets in The Sims 3's expansion of the same name. You name them, and can control them how you see fit, or breed them to raise more dragons. They could have magical properties such as fire breathing, garden-type magic, etc. And you could collect the scales they shed to either keep, or sell for simoleons.

I like the idea of elemental-based abilities for them, for example, your traditional fire-breathing dragons (like that kid in the TS2 trailer... actually, fire-breathing human sims would be awesome too, but that's a topic for another day), ice-breathing dragons (effects kind of like the freeze ray), nature/plant-based dragons (can help garden plants grow), electricity-using, maybe even ones with mind-control or something? Or even ones that can cause sickness or something similar (like the witch spell in TS3 Supernatural, and could even be incorporated with GTW if one has that pack as well)?
I think dragons would be an awesome addition, and I could definitely see something like that drawing people into the game. For example, I've got a friend that isn't really interested enough to buy/play the sims games, but loves dragons and would probably be a lot more interested if fully intractable dragons were added.
