Collecting a Urine Sample


To stimulate an animal to urinate, rub up and down just below the vulva. Holding off the animal’s air by blocking the nostrils and mouth for just a short time can also make the goat or sheep urinate.

Place the urine test strip directly in the urine stream or in a collected sample. Only a few drops of liquid are required.

If the animal still does not urinate, simply place the urine test strip directly in the lower portion of the lips of the vulva. The few drops of urine that are commonly there will often be enough to activate the strip.

 

Once the strip has been in contact with some urine, compare the color(s) of the strip with the information on the bottle.

Note:
A urine sample can be used to evaluate many things, including ketone and glucose levels.
