hey, do you guys with gelding clean there sheaths regularly ? i did the other day and used a sheath cleaning product but it didnt work that well, a friend recomended aqueaous cream any one tried this ?
cheers :D
 
I love sheath cleaning!!! Mine hates his done so I like to do other peoples horses as well, my friends is the best, he loves it!! Get ready to put some long gloves on! I usually lather my hand in TLC or Durex lubricant and massage the sheath from the inside so the grot becomes little balls and falls out. Lovely!!

Can you please come to Edinburgh and do my pony!!!! :D
 
I use sheath cleaner, but my 31 year old has been a bit smelly recently and last week I noticed him dribbling urine. I haven't seen him pee so don't know what his penis is looking like.

I have noticed references to Hibiscrub. What % should be used?

Check to see if he has a bean inside his urethra. My gelding had exactly the same problem a couple of months back. Whenever he had a wee, his "man bit" wasn't dropping down properly and he kept dribbling urine for a bit after he'd finished weeing. Also noticed that he was a bit smelly in that department. :rolleyes:
Had a little rummage around and he had a bean. Luckily his was very easy to remove, just gave a gentle squeeze and out it popped. :D
They can be difficult to get out though so be prepared to call the vet out if you can't do it yourself. Some people say to leave them and let nature take it's course but after reading this article, I'd be reluctant to leave it in there.

please be careful, smegma can have very sharp edges and cut, causing infection. also hibiscrub is harsh stuff and can cause a skin reaction as well as killing commensal bacteria which are protective. unless I had some guidance from a vet because there was a big problem, I would stick to baby oil/aqueous cream to soften rahter than using harsh detergents first off.

and the gelding owner's version, sorry I don't know the author

How's it hangin'?
So much cleaner.
Aren't you glad I
washed your wiener?
I'll admit it's
kinda creepy
that I had to stick my arm up in your pee-pee.

It was sticky.
It was gunky.
It felt icky.
It smelled funky.
It was cruddy,
it was crusty--
when you stuck it out, it creaked like it was rusty.

After half an
hour of toilin'
and of squirtin'
baby oil in,
you're as fresh there
as a daisy.
Either this means I love you or else I'm crazy!!!

Just cleaned my pony's tonight - he's the only one who really gets a gunky sheath. He loves it being cleaned though. He gets very itchy so i thin it's relief gaving it cleaned. He gets grotty lumps and it stinks. I used a sheath cleaner that works well and have also been told to use canestan to help stop the itching and fingal infection. So, I have a nice tube of canestan for men at the ready!!! Lol
 
Well done, SophieRIDSH. I needed a good laugh. I've got a mare, but my friend can sing it to her gelding!!

Here's the mare's version
Is it clean now
Near your udder?
Is it smooth now
Smooth as butter?
It's a chore that
I'm not keen on
I'm either something to be kicked
Or else to lean on

There's much crust there
Tween your teatsies
More disgusting
Than your feetsies
I'll admit it's kinda scarey
To be reaching under you where it's not hairy.

It is black and kinda peely
Sometimes chunky, but ideally
It's a good thing, all in all
So you don't rub your tail raw upon the stall
Wall.

Now the mare folks
Have their own diddy
About cleaning their mare's titty
Hope you've had some slight enjoyment
As for me I might be facing unemployment!


and another gelding song written by amwrider
To the tune of "If you're happy and you know it"....

If it's hanging and you see it lube your hands
If it's hanging and you see it lube your hands
If it's hanging and you see it
Grab it quick it's time to clean it
If it's hanging and you see it lube your hands.

If it's peely and it's crusty pick it off
If it's peely and it's crusty pick it off
If it's peely and it's crusty
And the smell is kind of musty
If it's peely and it's crusy pick it off

If his weenie has a beanie dig it out
If his weeny has a beanie dig it out
If his weiner has a beaner
Pull it out and he'll be cleaner
If his weenie has a beenie dig it out

Now he's happy and you know it wash your hands
Now he's happy and you know it wash your hands
It's a job that's kind of kinky
And now your hands are really stinky
But he's happy and you know it wash your hands.

Hehe :D, I cant afford the train fares to go up there :O. You squemish??? Just close your eyes :P, You could try the tingly lube, im sure thats why my friends horse was really enjoying it :rolleyes:. He had a dissapointed face on when I stopped

Dangly bits give me the creeps lol I alway pay someone on the yard to do it whilst I 'hold' the lead rope and keep them calm haha :D
 
I don't do my boys dangly parts! asked vets about it and they pretty much said that once you do it you have to do it forever and that unless there was a particular issue let natures take its course!
 
Ok I dont mean to hi-jack the thread but.....................
My lad has a pink sheath and looks dirty on the outside which makes me wonder if its the same inside? And with someone else posting about MAGGOTS I am now petrefied (sp!) of what I will find up there. Should I clean it anyway or wait until he pee's and get a good look then? He pee's daily in his stable so wouldn't be difficult to see :)
 
I never clean my boys sheaths unless there is a problem. Also, one of mine absolutely hates having it cleaned! The one time he did have to have it cleaned the vet had to sedate him and do it for me! :o
 
Sophie_RIDISH - didn't see your song till today - so I hope you find this thank-you for making me laugh even more!

Non-horsey neighbour saw me addressing the problems of my old livery horse's sheath. He was amazed, and has threatened to put a sign on our gate, which fronts onto the village street "Winkle Tickling. By Appointment Only". He says he thinks I might get lots of customers!!!
