Well, before, there weren't the bins that there are now that I can put the bag of poop into which meant that if I had to clean some up in the street, I'd have to carry it all around the fields with me and I'd rather not have to carry bags of poop for miles when I don't have to and I didn't want to have to walk back home and then go back out again.
It wasn't a problem for the dogs, they didn't even try to go in the street really, they just waited until we got to the field or they'd already done it in the run before I took them. If it's only two minutes away, I don't see there being a problem.....I'm not sure why it seems to touch a raw nerve at your end...

it dosent matter but it is bad if they have to hold it for a while pls anyway if you dont want to carry poop around with you how do they go at the fields because you have to pick it up then

You do not have to pick it up on agricultural land, common ground, waste ground etc....
The law only applies to areas meant for public use such as parks, playing fields, pavements, grass verges but only those next to roads with a speed limit of 40mph or less. I've read up on it.
The dogs did their business on fields where the law does not apply. Wild foxes do their business in the same places so whats the difference?
I do walk them on a playing field but always walked them elsewhere first so they could do their business before going to play fetch with the ball.
Like I said, dogs kept in the house have to hold themselves every night of their lives...and often for lengthy periods during the day when their owners work or have to go somewhere the dog can't go.....does it kill them?

Haha, Jenny has never tried. :p If she did, probably not.

I'd give anything for Fenway to pee & poop on the sidewalk/driveway. However, I taught him to go in the woods and that's where he goes. So in the winter, when there is tons of snow (unlike this winter), we have to trudge out back so he can pee & poop. :D
