Re: [RC] Shy Bladder - Barbara McCrary

I am so thrilled with my new gelding.  I've discovered that he will pee on
the trail, sometimes even twice during a moderate distance.  He'll be going
along and gives me just the slightest hint that he is preparing to stretch
out.  Then he stops, stretches forward with the front legs and lets go.
Collects himself and off we go.  I don't have to train him.  I do wonder if
it's natural with him or whether someone else trained him, but I suspect the
former.

I don't know if this is any help but I used to have the same problem with
my gelding.  For 2 years, every time we went out, he would literally cross
his legs until we got home - not matter how long we had been out.  Then at
home, he would run to his "spot" stretch out and pee with this look of
utter bliss on his face.  In 2 years he only peed twice away from home,
once in the trailer and once on trail.

Finally, I went to our first CTR ride and my husband loaded him at 4:00pm
Friday to leave.  He held it - waiting to go home, until 1:30 the next
day.  When he finally peed it was like a river and kind of dark from being
held for so long.  However, now he will pee anywhere, anytime, and as
often as he has the slightest urge.  That was a TOTAL cure.
