Not exactly sure what's happening with your device, but this may provide some clues. This relates to iOS devices. Don't know anything about Android or others.

When you press the home button, the app moves from Active (normal, in-use state) to Background (no longer on screen but still executing code). Most apps usually then go from Background to Suspended (still resident in memory but not executing code). Suspended apps remain in the device's memory so they can resume more quickly when you go back to them. If memory is becoming scarce, iOS will automatically move Suspended apps into the Not Running state, close them completely and reclaiming their memory. When that happens and you tap it's icon the app relaunches afresh. Maybe that's your problem. Do you have other memory intensive apps running at the same time as DragonVale? Also, try turning on Background App Refresh (Settings, General, Background App Refresh), although I don't see DragonVale specifically on the list of apps there, but it might help anyway.
