Of course you can, they even sell snake collars/leads now so your snake can't run (slither) off. It's great, i usually take my larger pythons for strolls during the afternoons, and i get them to crap on the front lawns of people i dislike. During the night, if i have to walk up to the shops or something, i take a Taipan with me.... for protection. Last time someone tried to mug me the bloke ended up in intensive care for 6 weeks! My Taipan got an extra juicy rat for dinner that night!

I want a stuffed lacy so I can display one.
I took one of my pythons for a drive to the video shop once. But then I was too embarassed to take it out of the car. I am not ashamed of my interest, just hate drawing attention to myself but my snake loved wandering through the car

Why would you want to in the first place,I think it's a little silly IMO.

FWIW people, I made harnesses for two of my beardies, yes I do take them for walks (gets a bit of natural uv into them...). My little girl used to help me dig in the garden ('cept she used to dig up what I just planted!) and my little man (now 9yo) used to climb the trees!
Re: the snakes, I too take them for "walks", only I don't like to scare people either, so before I leave my driveway with snake around shoulder, I check first to see if people are coming either way (just like driving!), then off we go! They seem to really enjoy being outside in the sun (can't wait to get my Water Python for this!!!) and "sleep" really well later!
Just my two cents' worth...
Best,
Carolyn
By the way, I'm in SA...
