Sandy,
Did your horse drink after you observed the dark urine? I know my
horse's urine is darker after he finishs a ride but once he drinks it seems to
lighten up. I even notice this in my self. At the end of a ride urine seems
to be more concentrated and after rehydration takes place its less concentrated.

At least she going regularly! Some folks at the ride I was at this weekend
could'nt get their mare to urinate on the second day. She was really
uncomfortable. She finally went after they put shaving down on the ground and
she was fine after that BUT her urine was very dark.

Don't know all the technical stuff but I think that concentrating urine is
supposed to happen to a certain extent under stressful conditions.

(Where are you Charlotte? Am I at least warm on this one?)
