Re: [RC] Since we are on the subject of water - rdcarrieMy current horse will not hesitate to pee whenever he needs to. My husband's Paso was at first a little reluctant to pee under saddle, usually waiting till we got back to the trailer, then peeing as soon as Ross dismounted. Now he, too, will stop on his own whenever he needs to pee. Takes some of them longer than others to figure it out. My horse peed three times on an 18.7 mile loop on our 50 this past weekend.

Total distance ridden: 7 miles at most. I've never ridden a horse like him. I can usually feel him needing to pee, and sure enough, a few feet farther down the trail and he stops, positions himself and lets go. Then he contentedly gathers himself and moves down the trail. Never ceases to amaze me. I've ridden geldings that are miserably uncomfortable for miles before they can actually do something about it.
