Question

What is a horse called that has been gelded but still acts like a stallion?

Answer 1

Proud Cut... b/c in most cases, when the horse was gelded, the Vet only took one of the studly parts (LOL)... b/c the other is up in the horses body...

Most stallions make AWESOME geldings! ;)

Answer 2

a gelding.

Answer 3

lucky....no it's proud cut.....but most get the deep cut...

Answer 4

JOHN HENRY!

Answer 5

Studdish is the best term for this type of behavior.

Answer 6

Delusional

Answer 7

You said he WAS gelded so why is everyone saying all this other

Clay is right  STUD DISH or STUDY

Now if for a fact both nuts were cut out ??

I have a gelding that acts that way to and he has been cut over 14 yrs ago

I know lots of horses that will try to bred a mare and are True GELDINGS

Answer 8

You might be thinking of a cryptorchid.  These are horses that have their testicles retained in their bodies, so it looks like they are gelded, when in fact they are not.

Answer 9

"Proud cut."

He's still a gelding, but acts like a stallion.  The term comes from the theory that if the vet doesn't cut high enough, enough of the tissue is left for the horse to have stud hormones.
