Handling Do's and Don't's

[Skittles1101]

Some of my questions are:
I know some people take their snakes outside. Is this something that's recommended or should be avoided?
I have three dogs. At first Helix was uncomfortable around them, but never struck. Now he's comfortable with them and they like him. How much interaction, if any, should I allow between them? Do dogs (who are trustworthy with small animals) and BPs mix?
How long is too long to keep him out for handling, assuming the temperature is acceptable in the environment?

-Snakes in public, unless you're an educator I strongly believe it's not a good idea. Bringing your snake around people who hate snakes won't get them to like them any better, and it can damage our hobby having "crazy people walking around with a giant snake". That's not reality, but that's how people perceive people walking around with snakes. The extent of outside activity should be for photo shoots if the weather agrees.

-Dogs are dogs, snakes are snakes. To avoid any and all accidents keep them separate. Interaction is 100% not necessary, and actually quite dangerous IMO.

-This depends 100% on the snake. Some handle handling much better than others. Learn your snake, then worry about handling time. Keep it short and sweet and work your way up if you can. There are a few I literally never handle because it stresses them out beyond rationality.
