If you are at least trying combos known to be successful (see individual pages about each dragon for that info), then no, you aren't doing anything wrong. It's all about the yet-unknown success rates written in to the program code. Despite how many times you have  tried before, you have to remember that each attempt is a "unique event", independent of all others, and the success percentage is the same each time. It's kind of like rolling a die, and even though you don't roll a 6 throughout the course of ninety-nine rolls, there is no higher probability that you will roll a 6 on the hundredth roll. It's frustrating, of course, but if the "rare" dragons had combos that always worked, or high chances of success, then the fun would be sucked out of the game.
