Why is your hair so dark? You're a farmer. And married (I'm guessing). Who are you dying your hair to impress? The young girls? Yuck.
... seriously?
Lol what?
WTF lol
are we not allowed to dye our hair anymore? people do it all the time. Also some people cant stand gray hair. Also i guessing nobody is allowed to have dark hair anymore? Either way, i feel bad for the hoof gp because he has to deal with hooligans like you.
stroll troll...
Two days ago TH-cam recommended that I watch a video about a guy trimming some cow's hooves. I thought, "That's weird, a cow mani pedi." so I watched it. And here I am, two days later, still watching this guy deal with cow hooves. Why is this kind of thing interesting? Seriously, I don't understand why I'm oddly fascinated by watching a guy give cows a mani pedi.
... i don't understand the fascination either ... but yet here I am ... 9 years after trimming my first cow 😆😅
The Hoof GP does turpentine harden cow hoofs like it does horse hoofs?
Same
Ghmlyn Ujj lolook
That was we tonight! Haha I’m like 5 videos in now
I appreciate everything about this farm. Moms with their babies, regular hoof trimming, painkillers used, and freeze branding rather than fire branding. It doesn't take that much to recognize pain and suffering when you care. Good farmers are priceless to the animals in their care. ❤
💯
I was coming here to say the same thing, I love these people❤
Ever had a freeze burn? Not nice.
@@21DazzlerA helluva lot better than getting burned with fire...
@@SilverFlame819 Fire or ice burn about the same amount of pain.
Just as I finished watching this video, my 3yo daughter stepped on a lego that was on the floor causing her to bleed.... so I immediately:
1. Cleaned the bottom of her hoof with iodine/water solution
2. Slowly removed all of the loose horn
3. Decided not to put a block since it was in a non weight bearing area
4. Sprayed it with iodine
I will revisit her in about 1-2 weeks to reassess her foot and see how she's doing. She should have no problem going back to normal
Brilliant :)
Your daughter caused a lego to bleed?
🤣
@@justmeunicorn No . It was the floor that bled.
So satyrs are watching TH-cam?
I wish every farm would take care of the cow's like this one does, babies stay with their mothers, regular hoove trimming, pain meds if needed I hope every farm will follow them 🙏
Me too, Maryjane!
Yeah. I was quite surprised to learn that even biological farms take the young cows away from their mothers after weeks or even days….
All dairy farms trim their feet just as we. Happy comfortable cows make more milk
My Da, when he was still alive, used to say he wanted to come back as a prize bull. The best food, the best care, respect and all the finest cows. It would be a short life, he acknowledged, but a very happy one. Everytime I see a big, happy bull, I can't help but smile.
He probably came back as a bullfrog.
@@jamescameron3522 You felt the need to share this, why?
Sweet story. Thanks for sharing.✌🏼
S Burch why did you feel the need to share your first comment lol
@@NoRespectCDH Touche
You can really see that farm cares a great deal for their cows. Calves with mother's, hoof care, pain meds for one. I will certainly try to buy from them.
Their stables also look always clean with fresh shavings to lie in. Honestly, that should be common practise for every farm.
keeping calves with their dams isn't an indicator a farm is any better than those that seperate, jsyk! it's done at birth before any bonding, so there's no seperation distress. it's a really good way to keep track of calf heath, make sure they get colostrum and enough feed, and prevent disease spread. once old enough, they do usually rejoin the adult cows in the herd. some farms seperate, and others (like this video) don't. there's pros and cons either way! dairy cows particularly Holsteins tens to reject calves anyway, so it's usually safer on holstein-dominated farms to seperate.
@Geekn Z I'd believe it!
@Geekn Z and the more milk they produce too!
@@SaintNevermore I respectfully disagree. I grew up in a farm myself and we often had to take stillborn calves away from their dams. They were very distressed and some of them we even had to separate from the herd because they tried to steal other calves from their mothers. Cows are very maternal animals, there's always a certain amount of distress when you separate.
What is happening to me? I’m binge watching this delightful fella. I love TH-cam.
I'm not a farmer, have no direct contact with farm animals, and yet I watch his videos a lot.
Same here 😂😂
Make that 4 of us LoL
I'm in there too. That glue must dry pretty quick.
Right there wit ya 🤣
What a beautiful farm it’s nice to know that the farmer keeps the calves with their mothers absolutely brilliant I hope that female cow feels a lot better soon bless her she looked like she was in a lot of pain stay safe and take care
Why did I legit think you were trimming an elephants foot?
Hannah I'm glad I wasn't the only one .Lol
🤣🤣🤣
I thought his reputation has spread and he's been Commissioned by a zoo. Still doesn't seem at all unreasonable. Anyone that has seen the vids can tell what a caring decent bloke his is so hardly a stretch of the imagination.
I was wondering what they were going to use for a Crush though! :0)
Me too 😂😂
Hannah Laxton me too lol 😂
I love to hear that the calves get to stay with their mamas until weaned. What an ethical dairy farm!!!
Only till they become a veal chop as mommas milk makes their meat more tender hope that doesn’t upset anyone
@@billprezioso3677 shouldn't upset anyone who eats meat ... most meat is from young animals
@@billprezioso3677 yeah I’m not so sure you can call killing animals a bit later than usual ethical
@@Artemisdianaxxx I didn’t say killing any animal is ethical just stating a fact I used to work on a dairy farm and quit because I could never get used to seeing young calves carted off for slaughter
Been a vegan since 1972. Proud and healthy.
Never in a million years did I think I'd be obsessed with hoof trimming videos.
I came across your videos by accident and needless to say I'm hooked on them. I love how this farmer cares about his cows. We had a cattle farm in Oklahoma 27 years ago and I truly loved everything about farming. I grew up on a dairy farm in Germany so farming is in my blood 😊.
The neat-freak in me would pressure wash the hooves clear of manure and debris so you have a clean operating field before you get started...
I keep thinking the same thing with every video.
Is it just me because I just want to bathe the cows 🤣
Fuck that I'll work in any situation 😂 it's only cow shit
SAME when he gets out the grinder or whatever I’m like oh my gosh it’s going to be so dirty LOL I love dirt and everything I just think about this every time he goes to sand it down or whatever LOL
@@thickgirlsneedlove2190 Nobody said they wouldn’t work in it they just said that they would be neat about it! I’m not saying that he is not need about it because he is but what their saying is that they would like to clean off the foot first and then do it
Awe, I love that the babies stay with Momma until 6 months old!!
Our beef farm kept them with their mums until they are 12 months then we sold, weaned at 8moths, beef and diary cows develop different though
So am i .
I live within surrounding farmland and to hear cows at night crying for there young is heartbreaking
Kinda sad it wasn’t an actual elephant. But the bull was cute though
True true I thought it was a elephant :3
Right! I was low key disappointed
Elephants don't have hooves
@@r.brandt2246
For real. Why do they think they would need that ? 😅🤣
@@r.brandt2246 I believe they do or at least a member of all hoofed animals. It may look different but cows look different to horses. Camels, hippos,giraffes as well as deer,sheep and goats do also of course. Please let me know if you check and find out I am wrong, thanks. These are not the only animals with hooves, just my quick list to show how different they can be to each other.
You were right about the area being really beautiful. I think the reason why their dairy products are so good is because their cows are happy because they have a chance to be with their calf's for 6 months, it's amazing how something so simple can make your cattle so happy and therefore your dairy product quality so much better
"Yes, yes we did!!!" The tones of glee and not giving a crap in your voice made me chuckle! Thank you, Sir!
same lol
I laughed out loud.
Jim Bame n just tag hjnh
That’s how calf’s should be treated. It’s shows that obviously the cows can produce just fine that way. What a wonderful way to work a farm. Happy cows happy milk!!!
I was just thinking maybe that’s why the ice cream is so good... happy dairy cows, better milk?🤷🏼♀️
@@bayleighc.5843 more truth to that than you think. It's actually been proven that stressed cows produce sour milk. Happier cows, higher quality cow juice. Of course, most factory farms achieve the same thing with Copious amounts of drugs
@@ethanmurray5001 cow juice?? Best thing ive ever heard
Factory farms are fucking dens of evil!
I don't think there's such a thing as a "happy cow" because the cows still have to be pregnant to produce milk and the male babies get killed in 99% of situations (or sold somewhere else, but most likely for meat), so by buying milk you still support the meat industry and I honestly just don't want to be a part of that
The calves looked like they were having fun. Bouncing around like little nuts. LOL 😂
I love this guy . He explains everything and he’s got “State of the art “ equipment to work with
One thing good about your channel is that you actually teach how to identify the problems and show us your view of the best solution. Very nice channel, keep it up!
I love that he takes the time to explain the what and whys of his work. He should be an instructor!
I know! When I look at the new cow I'm like okay white line = good trim & block
This farm looks so clean compared to some of the other ones in your videos and the fact that they allow the calves to stay with their mom's is so important. Sounds like a great place
"Due to work in 4-5 weeks"
Why do I love that line. I love when people give animals human like descriptions for jobs. Or this bulls job.
I love watching how kind you are to the cows, large bulls and buffalos. Your humor is very refreshing!
Man, that cow limping was kind a hard to watch, hope she’s recovered.
the bull: "ohmgosh, we're getting our nails done. Yaaaaaaas, I'mma look pretty for the ladies"
Wtf
Naw. Probably not.
Hell yeah
@@TANKPOETRY Yes.
He gonna slay 💅
I can't help but think that if that big boy really wanted out of that crush, it wouldn't stand a chance.
I never knew bulls could be so gentle.
In this crush, probably wouldn't do too much harm, maybe? But in the old Wopa, im sure you're right
As a Black Angus rancher I can tell you that I've met more crazy cows than crazy bulls 😂
@@Person-ej8vd amen to that! It’s always the cows you gotta be careful around, especially in the chute
Yes, all animals can be gentle if they so wish. Bulls are not feral, out of control creatures, they’re just cattle.
it could trust me it could
Okay I have to admit when he was sanding the crack underside I was literally squinting my eyes to keep the shavings from hitting me in the eyes, Mr. Hoof GP had the perfect camera angle going on 😂🤣😂🤣 I can't belive I'm addicted to watching cows getting their hooves trimmed and all spiffied up...and I swore when I left home at 17 after graduation I was finished with anything having to do with a farm 😅 EDIT: Except horses of course I love my horses ❤🥰
This bull is a gentle giant. Even if he's uncomfortable he doesn't show it - he doesn't kick or anything. Does he have a name?
sir loin
@@texanonline1244 Texans know our beef.
@@texanonline1244 Sir Oh-sis of the liver
He looks like a "Bill" to me... BIG Bill. Lol
Ferdinand!
I can't tell you how much I love that the calves stay with their mommas. ❤
I've been working on a dairy farm in the US this summer, and this video has inspired me to help the owner explore more ethical options for his business. Thanks, Hoof GP!
Good for you!!!!
There are a lot of benefits to the system on this farm, not least for the cow and calf welfare, it has advantages with calf health, growth rate and costs too. Bear in mind this is an organic farm and there is a large saving on calf feeding costs to balance against the loss of milk yield from keeping the calves at foot until they wean.
I love your channel. The care you have for the animals comfort. The music and the beautiful countryside. Thank you for sharing your life.
I have so much respect for farmers. Being responsible for the well being of so many huge animals is daunting.
Okay the ad that came up was hysterical. It was about some kind of grinder to get the calluses off a human foot
Need that!!!
Lol
Thats some targetted advertising right there 😂
That is hilarious.
I could use one of those!!🤣
Ok I remember him now, he has had problems with his feet in one way or another since the owner got him. But he is a sweety so that is why the owner keeps him. I like him too.
You got almost same profile picture😂
I think it’s so cool that these farmers go out of their way for the appropriate care & help for their cows!!!! So AWESOME!!!! Love these kinds of videos!!!! Hang in there Betsy!!!! You’ll be able to graze soon dear in open fields.
"If you are wondering, 'Did they really eat all eight tubs of ice cream?' Yes. Yes they did." You guys are hilarious! (Though your wives might wish you had saved some.). Here's hoping the bull with the pretty white heart and but bad feet is finally on the road to soundness. Good that your new crush made it possible to get at the problems in his hooves in a way you couldn't before. One more reason why getting this well-designed hydraulic crush was so important.
I really like that the farm advertises itself as an "ethical dairy" right on the ice cream tubs and that the calves are left with their mothers until they are weaned.
You live in a beautiful place. But you knew that. Thank you for this video. How you have the time and energy to make them is beyond me, but I'm glad you do.
I like that farm too and I could just tell that the ice cream is the creamiest and freshest heh, heh.
It would of melted before he got home 😉
Actually leaving the calves with their mothers could be considered unethical. The reason the calves are separated is that they can be injured or killed while milling with the full grown cows. You have to be extremely careful if you don't separate them and it is often better to separate them for their safety.
Plural wives??
Thank me for watching? Thank YOU! Thank you for opening your life and beautiful family to us. For the beautiful music. For the care and respect, and individualisation of the animals you treat that for many would otherwise remain just another fixture in just another pasture as we drive past consumed by our own cares.
For showing how to find satisfaction in our lives, occupations, families, communities, and environments.
Even on your coldest, wettest, darkest, Scottish days, your content makes the sun come out around the world with every clip you release.
I've worked on dairy farms, and the calves were always separated from their mothers at about four days old. It gives me joy to see these little ones with their mum's for longer. They're probably healthier calves as a result.
If the ice cream is that good, I can't say I blame you two for scoffing the lot! Lol!
Four days?! I grew up in a rural area of Canada where we mostly have beef cows, and they have their babies with them for several months usually. It would be awful to see them separated that soon.
I grew up next a cow farm, not sure if it was a dairy farm or not, they usally took the calves away if the mother wasn't letting it nurse, sometimes the mommas would get really violent towards their babies. Sad to see, but I did get to feed a baby calf because of it.
My godparents run a dairy farm and I’m pretty sure they separate the babies immediately. They’re technically in the same building until they’re due to have calves of their own but it’s still really sad
I"m very impressed with how the farmer treats his cows and calves and keeps them together and lets the babies eat from momma. If I ever have an opportunity to buy their products, I will.
I don't even have any animals with hooves, but I still love watching your videos. I enjoy watching how professional you are and how your work helps to make the animals have less pain. I know what you mean about forming relationships with the animals that you have to do repeat visits
My daughter, age 8, caught the tail end of the video flying over the lovely country side and said, "that's beautiful, is it fake?"
"No!" I said, "it's Scotland!" 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😝😝
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
😂😂😂 bless her
Out of the mouth of babes...😊
Scotland is BEAUTIFUL! And, it has a history so old. People are kind and warm too.
oh poor girl made me sad how she was walking hope she gets better asap xx
Oh my I love how ethical this Farm is...keeping calves with their Mama is so special! I bet the ice cream is wonderful!
I can't get over the colosssal size of the bulls hoof. Great job again. I hope you and Dougie Boy split the ice cream 50/50. Judging by the look on your face it was really good.
I love it when you trim a bull's hoof. They are beautiful creatures.
I just found your channel and I’m completely taken by your kindness and compassion for the animals. It’s obvious that you love what you do! I just found my favorite TH-cam channel! ❤️
I was in Scotland in 2016 with two of my best friends (sadly one passed away in 2018) and we made kind of a roadtrip to visit the beautiful landscapes. It was one of the most beautiful trips I've ever had in my live - if not THE most beautiful!
So I absolutly love hearing the scotish accent and your videos of the landscapes.( Your love for your job and the animals are conveyed just perfect via internet btw).
I have so many wonderful pictures and videos from this trip but I still can't stand to watch them without crying for my friend.
I hope I get to visit your stunning country once more - and that I won't be crying at least all the time.
Thank you so much for your wonderful upcheering content and your loving personality!
I luv this farm it make me happy that the baby’s aren’t separated
It's my buddy. He's gorgeous. And even has a tattoo for the ladies.
As someone who grew up on a farm: looking at that floor breaks my heart. This is just plain gummy and concrete. It wouldn't wonder me if they slip and fall often and IT IS the reason why so many have hoof problems and went lame.
I was thinking their flooring was horrible for them as well!
It’s not really. Better than stones and they get good grip in it if you have the concrete notched
Why is the floor always full of 💩
@@SPLLITZISTAKEN cause cows shit like a lot and also not enough cleaning but even then cows shit a lot
@@SPLLITZISTAKEN why has your toilet been shit in?
Never thought I would enjoy watching hoof trimming. This makes me wonder how my grandfather handled the cows hooves on his farm in the 1930's
I love the music you use in your vids :)
When i see a cow or bull on tv or in a field i always look at their hooves, like i'm an expert now after watching your vids haha
I love the idea that they keep the calves with mom for 6 months. :)
Agreed. My favorite grass-fed, organic lovely dairy here in the states does too - they have a customer forever!
That is knormalu
What a beautiful farm! Cows look so chill. I wish all farms were like this.
The aerial view of the farm in the end was absolutely breathtaking.
The Ice Cream in the video is called "Cream O Galloway" Ice Cream - if you google ot their website will come up :)
CURSES!!! They don't ship outside the UK!!!! :(
@@howellherrin5909 I know, right! Yet another reason why the UK is better than the US.
Hey @The Hoof GP! There is another wonderful youtuber names “Sandi Brock” and I think she could use advice on good tools and how to care for sheep’s feet. She has had a bit of a struggle with the right schedule and good tools that will last through a large amount of sheep. Sadly her sheep’s toes got very out of control on certain breeds. Hopefully you can send her a message and suggest some stuff. Thank you.
Boo boo I love ice cream.
I can't believe you didn't take any home for the boys! You're a meanie Graeme. Lol
When I was very young 5 or 6 my dad would take me around to my great uncles cattle. There was a huge Red Bull with a white face that I remember wouldn’t let my dad or great uncle around him but I could walk right up to him and pet him. This made me think that all bulls were super sweet and my dad caught me trying to get on the back of a huge Brahman bull at one of the cattle actions. I just really wanted to touch it’s hump cause it looked super squishy. 🤷🏼♀️
He must've not seen you as a threat, being that young. Must have been a cute sight to see.
When I was kid, my dad used to manage a farm where we had beef cattle, at around age 4 I 'vanished' one day they could not find me anywhere, bearing in mind we had grain pits, silage pits and slurry lagoons, they must have been frantic.
Then my dad noticed all the cows stood in a circle in the middle of a field, which was unusual as normally they are spread out grazing or lying chewing cud, he went over and I was in the middle of them, getting licked all over, they parted as my dad gently made his way through and picked me up.
To be honest I was probably in no danger, unless they got spooked by something, cows are VERY gentle, inquisitive and for the most part safe.
We also used to sit on the backs of the bullocks, in the yard never ever fell off or had a problem with them, used to put a bit of corn in their trough dad would lift us up and stand there stroking them whilst we just sat there stroking them.
I love cows, and the way this farm manages its cows and calves is actually quite amazing, sacrificing part of their yield for the calves benefit is very unusual but it also gives the calves the best possible start and I bet they have near zero mastitis problems, because of this.
And that bull is a sweetheart, though I bet he changes a little bit when he is working, being, kind, calm and respectful of the animals ALWAYS pays off, in kind, calm and respectful animals in return, being nasty or cruel to or with them never pays, is counterproductive and says a lot about the management of a farm.
The places that you go, seem to have nailed this perfectly but I suspect you would not be wanting to be associated with those kind of places anyway, regardless of your love of making animals well and comfortable, some places make this not worth the effort.
I think we all want to feel a Brahman hump
😂🤣😅 I know what you mean! All my uncles & aunts had farms! We were the city folk.
@@johndawkes7339 that's a lovely story :). I really like this farm too
I love that the babies get to stay with their mom!
I really don't know how I started watching these videos, but I can't stop!
The gentle giant of a bull never let on how much his feet hurt. Your compassion and expertise has give these animals a much better quality of life. As a person who was born and raised and until my husbands passing raised cattle and horses. Most people don’t realize how important good hoof care really is. You two earned every bite of that ice cream. Keep up the great work in an absolutely amazing place.
I have literally studied elephants feet, knew this wasn’t one, and even still I saw the thumbnail and the title and was like ‘ELEPHANT????????’
and i was like (pardon for my ignorance) , elephant have hoof??
@@nanadapricot2952 idk if they’re technically classified as a hoof but their foot care maintenance is very similar to that of a horse!
@@k_pufflz ohhh ,i ve seen the way they take care of the horse's foot care!
I was expecting the "Elephants Foot" in Chernobyl XD
IT IS CALLED CLICKBAIT
I discovered this channel on my recommendations about a week ago, and I never expected to be this fascinated by hoof trimming. You are so intelligent and articulate, so I can't help but binge a ton of your videos. Keep up the good work!
I like that the calves are allowed to stay with their mum’s. That is totally natural. Makes mum happy and me!❤❤❤❤😂🎉
I love the fact this big guy is getting a "pedicure" and that's saying something for a bull!!. Love the hoofgp!!. And the land of my ancestors!!.
I never get tired of seeing how beautiful your countryside is.
If I ever go to Scotland, you have to show me where I can find that farm. You ate four cups of icecream, must be very good 😃
Scotland is one of my favorite destinations I’ve ever visited. So calming. Hope you get to go!
I've been to England and Scotland. The people of Scotland were very kind to us. I wish I had found an angel for my collection. The rock walls are so pretty!
Looks like it’s in Castle Douglas. Beautiful area. www.creamogalloway.co.uk
All 4 feet, aww poor bull. I'm glad he's got a caring farmer and staff, and your good self helping him be comfortable. I was delighted the calves stay with their mums, you don't hear that often. Happier mums and happier babies. I'm sure it makes the ice cream taste even better.
These cows look so happy and healthy! Brought a smile to my face
I love that they keep the calves there with the mothers, they are so cute playing together!
Same they are sooooooooooooooo cute playing together!
You’re my favorite channel. I feel I could diagnose and adequately trim a cows hoof at this point. I’ve watched all your videos. So satisfying. I love your passion. It’s so inspiring seeing someone own a very niche profession that is obviously so necessary to a cows health.
Keep making videos.
Yes!! Eat all the ice cream.
Excellent dairy farm! Love hearing how they leave the calves with their mommas! ❤️
Husband: Get ready - we're going to be late!
Me: Hold on - he's almost done with this bull's hooves 😏
Beautiful footage at the end! It was much needed at this time of chaos, a reminder that kindness is still alive, TY from NY 🙏
Hi from former NY state here!
Indeedy. Makes me very homesick, as cant travel back to family due to lockdown!
Good to hear the calfs are let to stay for 6 months with their mothers - that is a kindness to both mother and calf in what will be such a cruel life.
The ice cream tastes so good because happy cows get to have their babies with them ❤️. Bulls hooves are massive!!!!
Just watched a whole bunch of your vids and when i got to 'Did they just eat all 8 tubs of ice cream? Yes, yes we did' it made me smash that sub button 🤣
Bobb
I LOVE THIS FARM! The calfs and how the bull himself is well natured and stays with his ladies. He's a happy boy who's making happy calfs. Wonderful, there is milk enough for all!
My most favorite part of Watching the hoof GP is the lovely country n western song that plays in videos from start to end. You go GP, the best in the whole world n back 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💯❤️its lit 🔥🔥🔥
Your channel is one of the few times the algorithm was right on! I'm enjoying everything. The production value is high, and music choice is so pleasant. Now, I just need to figure out if I can get that ice cream sent to the US!
Blessings to you, sir, for showing how most farmers do care for their livestock.
I 'm Canadian, live in a city, do not have a farm, or access to a farm and I find this utterly fascinating.
you mean ‘udderly’ ? haha :)
The lower camera angle really showed what a massive, beautiful animal that bull is.
“he’s colossal, but he’s a nice big friendly boy” me describing my 6’6 bf 😹🥰
Hi! Scotland's countryside is so beautiful!
It truly is! I’m Scottish and live kinda in the middle of Scotland 🏴 and know a lot of places north of where I live but getting a taste for southern Scotland 🏴 from these videos! Lockdown can’t come quick enough for me to get exploring more of my beloved country!
Its even more beautiful in person. love waking up in such a stunning country. ☺😊
Scotland is a lovely place.
Watching you grind away on these hooves with an electric grinder makes me wonder how much easier it would have been for my Opa and Dad to do this to the cattle on our farm. They used the knives and HAND HELD FILES to do that work! Of course our farm was mainly wheat and Alfalfa with never more than 40 head of cattle in the pasture.
Yup this farm rocks! Love it. Would really love to study this farms system! I bet a ton of people would.
I'm so glad you're enjoying life and performing such an important service. The world is a much better place with you in it, Graeme.
That's wonderful the calves get to stay with their moms 💕
What a lovely farm. I`m impressed that they are so empathetic to their calves.
Scotland is so beautiful. You folks are lucky to live in such an amazing place! Some day I'll leave the little Pennsylvania town, called Meadville, I live in and venture over to see that beautiful countryside in Scotland!
You're helping animals, you love what you do, you get to enjoy the great outdoors and share your adventures with the world, what more could one ask for? Blessings to you and yours, and of course to the four legged ones too. 😄🐄🌻💕
I ran across your videos by accident but found them interesting. My family is from Scotland. Even though my ancestors came on Mayflower with Columbus, and others trickled in over the years, our family has always passed down facts about our Scottish heritage. In America I live in Missouri and grew up on a cattle ranch. I never Remember my dad trimming cattle hooves but he did cut over grown ones. We had a horse or pony that foundered on dog food and had to trim hooves --was awful. If a cow got lame the vet was called. But not many ever limped or had trouble as I would go with my dad to check cows in pick up or horseback. But that about 55 years ago. I believe what you are doing is so great. You seem to love your work and I find it wonderful that this is available now. Thank you
My family is also Scottish on my dads side. PA Dutch on my moms. But Scotland is on my bucket list to visit. Looks gorgeous.
Your machine you have for restraining and holding the hooves in place is so handy! Love seeing you help the cows out, your a good man 👌
The outro of this video is just pure feel good! Scotland is beautiful, truely! I say that as a Norwegian!
Poor bull. What impressed me with you as the trimmer and the farm owner/hand was how gentle and kind with them. Well done all around👋👍👍👍🐂🦋🌺🍀🇦🇺🥰
i love how the English, Scottish and Irish men speak to animals, they refer to the guy animals as 'lads' and the female animals as 'lases'....... love it!
I tried watching other channels that trim animals feet and I really haven't seen any of them that care as much as you do about what they do the animals they work on it's really inspiring and I just want to thank you keep up the great work
I love seeing the drone footage…the scenery you share with us is absolutely stunning.
I deeply admire you, you are a masterful professional, I am humanized by the respect you feel for animals. God bless you and your profession.
Thank you so much for helping these cows & papa bull feel more comfortable. You are a valued member of the farmers team.
