Erm, then don’t you suppose calling it anything OTHER than a “butt plug” would be useful? Especially since it isn’t technically a butt plug?[/QUOTE]
Twat Stopper?
Girly Gag?
A Queef Relief?

I just thought you should know that I am viewing this thread while visiting my parents. This comment just killed me. My brother just asked why my face was all red, my mascara was runny and why I was still laughing. I actually told him.
I think he always thought I was weird. Now I’m sure I’ve erased all doubt. :lol:
What do y’all expect from a company that sounds like it’s run by prostitutes?

Sitting here at work, trying not to die laughing over this. Pretty sure I could not explain to my coworkers without sounding either like a complete creep or a crazy horse lady. :lol:
This thread made my day - and served to further my knowledge of horsey genital issues but the funny aspect was more needed to improve my day :).
I think it does go in the butt.
Good laugh for mid day lull. Glad to see a bunch of horse people not being all kinds of uptight on here 
This thread is in danger of crossing over into 50 Shades of Hay territory.
Not that I contributed to that at all… :uhoh:

The first thing I did yesterday was share this with a coworker. I will spare you all the links he sent back in response. They were similar things with long horse tails attached.
[QUOTE=trubandloki;7712518]
Janet, thank you for the factual (but far less funny) explanation. That makes tons of sense.[/QUOTE]
We each have our weaknesses!
All these serious posters had to go and take away all the fun! 
I can’t stop laughing… Glad I waited until I got home from work to open this thread!

Ok…enough. The butt plug
(…)
The real problem with these pieces of equipment is they are not in common usage with disciplines not involving harness[/QUOTE]
Nah, the real problem is describing the thing as a butt plug.
Come now, if the company is going to be selling the equipment, at least describe which hole it’s going into. You just know some inntertube-trolling yahoo will come across that, decide they need it, cheapen out and try to make a DIY plug and stick it up their mare’s butt. You know that will happen!

I’m just sat here wondering what you were searching for that you found these :lol:[/QUOTE]
They’re under the protective boots category!!! I wasn’t looking for butt plugs!!!
[QUOTE=Janet;7712379]Windsucking CAN be a serious problem for high performance mares, but the usual solutioon is a Casllicks.
When a horse gallops, the whole set of “guts” is loose inside the torso, and slide forward and back with each stride.
This is important for breathing. When the guts slide forward, they help the lungs exhale faster. Silmilarly, when the guts slide backward, they help the lungs inhale faster.
Unfortunately, it has the same effect on the other end. As the guts slide forward, they pull the uterus with them and, if the vulva is not tightly closed, this sucks air into the uterus. Thus “windsucking”. Then when the guts slide backward, they try to force the air back out.
When Gillian moved Sport up to the *** level, and was doing serious (on the racetrack) galloping, Sport developed some quite bad “back pain”. After some investigation, the vet determined that it was really uterine irritation from windsucking. He gave Sport a Caslicks, and the problem went away.
It is not a problem for most of us lower level riders. But it IS a problem for race horses and upper level eventers who REALLY gallop.[/QUOTE]
Ah, thank you for the lesson, Janet! I hadn’t thought about it, but that makes total sense. Is there a similar cause for gelding sheath noises? A Caslicks seems a lot simpler and more effective than a “butt plug”… but maybe if you’re not sure if it’ll help, this device could be useful before you decide to do surgery, however minor.
Funny story… I work for a doctor who likes shocking us (the nurse and I) by saying somewhat crude things. So back when my mare was ~10 months pregnant, I scheduled an appointment to get her Caslicks removed, and it was in the afternoon/evening of a weekday. I told the doctor, “you have to stay on schedule today so I can leave on time, because my horse has to get her vulva cut open.” He just looked at me for a few seconds, then turned and walked away :lol:. Point to me!
I wish Horze would make the item descriptions more accurate/informative. At least don’t call it a butt plug, since that’s totally not what it is.
I wonder if they could develop a similar product for mares who pee constantly when they’re in heat…
I knew better than to open this thread. But I admit, I’ve learned a few things up to this point :lol:
I’ve never heard of the hoo hoo one for fillys’ but I have heard of a sling type contraption for studs while in a performance class.
I thought it hilarious there were five FB shares for the filly one and no shares, at all, for the stud horse one. I was tempted to share just to make things fair, yanno?
Sheesh, thought I was on the other bulletin board I read after seeing that thread title! :lol:
