Here's another idea. Maybe the Dragon is Draco's animagus. After all why else would JKR name Draco, Draco? Draco is latin for Dragon. 
   
  Then again the Dragon could be anyone or just a Dragon. It is probably not norbert since the drawn Dragon doesn't match his description. 
   
  I don't think Dragon's understand Parseltongue. The Bassilisk did, but the Bassilisk is a snake. Dragon's aren't snakes, well except for Draco.
   
  Also Dragons so far in the JKR universe are not intelligent.
