I've done both.
If I really can't stand the dragon, I just get rid of them and give a new dragon the same lore. Or, much more often (and with lasting effect), just say they moved on and make a big event out of it. Sometimes it's fun to shake up the old lore, too. This dragon is basically my old blacksmith, except, of course, awesome--while my old blacksmith moved on. I don't apparently tend to keep any of my lore dragons that were a 1:1 lore switch with another dragon.
I was a few steps away from getting rid of this boy, but then I decided to give him one more shot. He got a new secondary and outfit. He's my best Bogsneak now. I had a pair I fell out of love with, but decided to give them another go. With this girl, it took a new UM accent and outfit. Her mate just got a new backstory.
I tend to keep my old dragons, unless I find their colors just unbearably boring. More often, I'll get rid of a dragon because it tugs my lore in a direction I didn't want... which is a separate situation.
