Check Chinese stories. They use dragons in many of their stories. You can refer to http://www.starfall.com/n/level-c/chinese-fables/load.htm?f
You might want something other than this, but it gives you an idea of where to look. Dragons are referred to by nearly every civilization. You shouldn't have any trouble finding something you want.

Several stories have been attached to Saint George, the best known of which is the Golden Legend. In it, a dragon lived in a lake near Silena, Libya. Whole armies had gone up against this fierce creature, and had gone down in painful defeat. The monster ate two sheep each day; when mutton was scarce, lots were drawn in local villages, and maidens were substituted for sheep. Into this country came Saint George. Hearing the story on a day when a princess was to be eaten, he crossed himself, rode to battle against the serpent, and killed it with a single blow with his lance. George then held forth with a magnificent sermon, and converted the locals. Given a large reward by the king, George distributed it to the poor, then rode away.
