I dont really have much time to handle my BP I think it is really for inspection of their health and so they do not attack any one that touches them.So I never really time myself for holding Smo'ore but I do try to quit a lot as long as it as not at night.

I generally try to keep it under 20-30 minutes a day. I used to take Dex out for an hour or so, did the whole around-the-neck thing, but he seems happier with shorter sessions. Are you starting the taming process?
