When your pet horse gets sores from his blanket, then this means the blanket he is using is not fit for him. A poor quality
blanket is one of the most common causes of rubs in horses. Blanket rubs are patches of bare skin or short fur that are
caused by the friction of the blanket rubbing against your horse’s coat.
The best way to treat blanket sores is to prevent them from happening, and the best way to do that is to choose a
perfect-fit blanket for your pet. Make sure you choose the right size and the best fit for your horse to avoid
inconvenience in the long run.
While using a blanket, you have to prevent friction between the material and your horse’s skin. You can use a moisturizer
or coat shine and polish products that can help provide a smooth texture that could help the blanket move smoothly and
without friction.
