Will a male dog not poop in a yard because a female dog is in heat?

Before everyone starts making nasty comments & asking me irrelevant questions. My female dog is in her second heat cycle and she will be breed once. They are both pure bred with Champion Lines. Yes I do know about bred, the money, responsibility & risk it takes. My cousin breeds pure bred dogs, that is where I got both of my dogs from, not they are not related, yes they will have all testing done before breeding. However, my dogs are kept in the home & not out in a kennel, therefore there are things that I will experience that she doesn't because of the constant contact with my dogs. Now for the question... I know its normal for a male dog to not eat for a few days when a female is in the climax of her heat cycle, however, is it normal for him to not want to poop in the yard where my female also uses the bathroom. He did not poop for almost two days even though I spent hours & hours outside with him trying to get him to use the bathroom. He is still eating regularly (for now) and was not bloated. He only wanted to "smell" my female, kept walking everywhere she walked & tried licking the spots she urinated. My husband took him outside by himself (we almost always walk them together) and he still walked around sniffing & whining, then he took him into the open field area behind our house about 25-50 ft out back & still he just paced & whined. Finally I bundle up very warmly & walked him 3-4 blocks away at the little fenced-in doggy park. We go there all the time & she had not been there in a few days so I figured her scent would not be so strong & "distracting" to him. As soon as we go there, I took off his leash, he ran, found a spot & pooped 5 times. He usually poops twice, mostly because he likes to poop a little, move a few paces then poop again. Is this something that anyone else has experienced. I have heard people suggest getting a water bottle with a little bleach & spraying the spot where she goes to the bathroom will take away the smell. Is there anything else I could do or should I just keep walking him by himself to the park every night?
