In people and some animals it is a sign of Diabetes. I find that when I feed Alfalfa hay my horses seem to pee more often. They also pee more often when mares are around, they are geldings.

The reverse of "my horse doesn't pee ..." is the horse I've
been riding LD on the last four seasons. I taught him to pee on command before
we leave the pasture. Sometimes he goes twice before we get to the gate. And
it's not that big a pasture. If we go out for a couple of hours, he will
pee at least once more. If we go on a longer training ride, he might pee three
times.
Urine is clear and normal looking. Horse is small, lean, smooth-coated,
apparently strong, energetic and healthy.
The question has been if pee-ing so much could be an indicator for anything I
should worry about?
