Static electricity can make a horse - blanket shy.

You can avoid this by not sliding the blanket across the horse’s back, which may create static.

Instead, lift the blanket UP and OFF.

Also try using only one hand and not and not making contact with the horse or blanket with your free hand. This way you will not complete the electrical circuit and your horse won't get a shock.
