Is it normal for a dog to walk and poop at the same time?
It’s why so many dogs end up having to pop a squat in the middle of their morning walks. If you see your dog walking and pooping simultaneously, it could be a sign that your dog is a bit constipated. They are walking to try and eliminate the stool as efficiently as possible.
How do I stop my dog from pooping on walks?
You can use mesh fencing or anything that will make the area appear distinct from the rest of his outside territory. If you walk him within an hour of his meal then there is a good chance he will do a number 2 on the walk. Instead, take him before meals when his bowel movements are unlikely to yield anything.
Why does my dog poop then run away?

Why does my dog keep pooping on walks?
