Things You'll Need
- Collection container
- Storage container
Instructions
Observe your horse. Most horses make it clear when they are going to urinate. It usually involves spreading their legs and lifting their tail. Female horses will spread their legs more than the males. Become familiar with your particular horse's signals.
Prepare for the collection. Have an appropriate container ready to collect the sample. This should be big enough to give a large target, but small enough to position quickly. Consult with your veterinarian to find out if you need a sterile collection device.
Be patient. Follow your horse, watch for its signals, and be quick with the collection device. It may take several tries and strategies to get a clean and ample sample.
Transfer the urine to the storage/transportation container. If you need a sterile sample, be sure to not contaminate the sample.
