Don't use a newspaper but do use the plastic bags that the newpaper is delivered in. Easy to pick up using the hand inside the plastic bag and then pull it inside out and tie a knot in it. No matter how much opportunity mine get to *go* before a walk, they want to wait until they are on the walk. Fortunately half way around the route we take is a little park with a trash can. I stop by the edge of the curb, they poop, I pick up, tie the knot, and toss in the trash can.
