Can a horse do the above too much for a future in
endurance riding? I watch my friend's horse, a seven year old Arabian
gelding, who will pee at least two times and pass manure 10-15 times in an hour
and half ride. Oh , the manure is always runny, mushy and very
wet. His manure in the paddock is always normal. This horse has a
healthy appetitie and drinks well. When we return home its obvious he
really wants to pee while he's on the cross ties and will fuss until someone
holds a bucket under him (he hates to splash himself).
Since my friend has high hopes of getting into
endurance or CTR I was wondering if her horse has any special needs to be
considered.
