Notice how he has to hold the horse's leg at first. Then the horse seem to sort of realize what is going on and just holds the leg in place. Wonderful chemistry with the care taker there.
I'm a welder by trade. My farrier told me once that a farrier is a welder with his brains kicked out lol I have always wanted to go to the school in Oklahoma but I'm too old and don't have time away from work for it. Great job.
Watching these great videos , makes me think that shoding has been done for a VERY long time the same way. Decades, if not centuries now. I see artistry when I watch this/these videos..I am from a very old farming area in the Tennessee/the South. I still occasionally find the odd horse shoe that managed to get “thrown off” decades, if not centuries, ago, and they look pretty much the same as today’s, usually just more worn. I don’t think much has changed between then and now with regards to the artistry of what a farrier does. Farriers are so important to the wellbeing of horses, ponies, mules, and maybe even the occasional compliant donkey helping to keep a herd of cattle safe.
@@jeremywade6986 I'm gonna assume you didn't think I am an idiot. I meant that since watching his video, the cow hoof channels show up and I've extended my addiction. Hope that's clearer. 🙃
@Dan Reardon Haha no I agree. I don’t have any intentions on trying, because I don’t want to be a horse kicking bag. I’m just curious what indications people use to know how much to take off.
Привет из Подмосковья ; вы настоящий мастер своего дела , приятно смотреть на то , как вы работаете , я думаю и лошади вам очень благодарны за ваш труд .
Riight! I wonder if this man is single and if he is i hope there's a lady interested in him. I would be but i can't I met someone and we speak everyday we haven't met, yet but we talk everyday.
Hi, another great video! I wondered what the reason for the leather pad only under the actual shoe rather than covering the entire sole too was, and also the reason for the wider width shoe Co.oared to a conventional horse shoe? Thanks. X
Another good lookin foot! I think that you're the only farrier that I've ever seen use a rubber/plastic tipped soft-blow hammer to clip the nails. I guess that's a little less shock to the horse, as well as you. 🐎👍🇺🇸
From a curious mind: I feel like this hoof is a lot longer than most other hooves I see being shod. Do you leave length on these because they are strong and aren’t cracked or because of the type of work the horse does?
It’s usually what is needed to give the hoof and pastern the correct angle. Of course if you trim a hoof too short you’re going to have a tender-footed and lame horse
I watched another channel and he was filing until the hoof wall was flat and no visible frob. Could there have been a reason for this? I had never seen a blog completely flat before. Thank you for your informative channel.
Have you ever had a horse reach around and bite you ? Would be good if you did a vid and told us what you are doing and why . What country are you in ,(state) Thanks for sharing .
he’s driving a wedge under the clenched hook of the nail to straighten the hook. That way the nail will pull back through the hole easily as the shoe is pried off.
Have you ever thought of purchasing or building your own cattle crash that is modified to hold horses? I know it can be done because there is a Chinese couple that post videos that have one that they built for large orc horses that they trim. They seem to have a simpler time once the horse is slightly off the ground to work on the feet and get them all trimmed up
I'm not sure what a cattle crash is, but I believe he drives around to horse owners that request him. I'm new to the channel, so I'm not sure, but is a cattle crash portable? Maybe that's the reason he doesn't have one. I tried googling cattle crash and google was absolutely no help to me 😂
I remember back in the early 2000s there was this movement going on at my stable, where everybody had the horseshoes removed because they restricted the growth and caused the hooves to grow too narrow (at least that's what they said) so the horses had to adapt to walking barefoot again which caused them a lot of uncomfortableness and their hooves had to be bathed in special solutions daily. I never had that problem with my horse because she never had shoes in the first place, but to this day I wonder if this was really necessary? Are or were shoes really that damaging? obviously it depends on what the horse is doing but if you just go on rides for fun with an occasional small tournament here and there it really got me thinking if it was worth it... also, I am highly impressed with the horse being so cool about the electric sanding thing!
Well shoes can be very damaging. But it all depends on what the horse does daily/weekly. What the ground is like, even the weather. So it was possibly very good for the horses or completely useless.
I like how the horse had opinions but was still chill about it
this horsey is a bit more feisty than other ones i've seen in this sort of videos! good job!
It’s still fairly gentle considering it hasn’t full force kicked his nuts. Horses can easily get you hospitalized for life lol
It's so crazy how I've never seen a horse in person yet I watch these videos because they're somehow..satisfying.
You’ve never seen a horse???
😂 that's sweet a horse in person
😊
I have respect for a person in a skilled trade. You are doing a wonderful job, the Horses are happy and the owners! Cheers!
You define people by their skills?
thats not a horse ;-;
@@iche9373 he didn’t define them he just said he respected them y’all always are trying to be negative
@@konni4570 how bro
@@konni4570 ..then what is it?
Love a man who works with his hands and is kind to animals.
I like that you use that drill-sander. It's very effective at cleaning up the outside of the hoof wall. It's also very satisfying :)
It can also be terrifying at times lol, I've watched one explode twice on the same horse. Spooked the poor horse bad both times
Notice how he has to hold the horse's leg at first. Then the horse seem to sort of realize what is going on and just holds the leg in place. Wonderful chemistry with the care taker there.
Yeah if no chemistry so his testicle will break 😂😂😂
Horses have to get their hooves trimmed every 6 weeks I believe, so one would assume it's gotten used to it.
@@justbg which is also quite amazing don't you think? Sometimes we forget how intelligent some animals actually are
Years of experience show in his movements, and his forearms. 💪😁
I dont undertsand how i find this so entertaining, so im not gonna question myself and keep watching more videos.
its so satisfying to watch him do this but so cool at the same time

That would be a horse.

Seriously, horses, cows...I spend too much damn time on either.
Hoof GP??
No one else does it with the care he puts into it ❤️
I know quite a bit about farrying especially for someone that'll never go into the profession thanks to videos like this.
True craftsmanship!
Excelente trabalho parabéns pelo empenho e capricho,Deus lhe retribua com prosperidade
i saw this same comet on another vid
I love the power sanding the outside of the hood
Id love to learn how to do this....I know it would kill my back but that has to be so fulfilling..
1) i love your videos!
2) lol this horse really wanted its foot back
Oweful n nice job, I have great aggection for horses and your work full of kindness
From someone who has never done this, how do you know how much to take off before doing damage?
Not enough before blood comes out of the sole unless the farrier can justify it.
the horse will let you know very quickly
Most of the Farriers go to Farrier school to get taught the trade.
@Dan Reardon Haha no I agree. I don’t have any intentions on trying, because I don’t want to be a horse kicking bag. I’m just curious what indications people use to know how much to take off.

How do you know if they are all the same height? Do you just eye ball it from experience? Would it evn matter if one was a little bit off?
He makes it look so easy ☺️
Who else got this in their recommendation
Me and u haven’t stopped watching since. I just keep clicking more
Yea me too

these are sooo satisfying I woke up and I went right on here!
I love watching how you work.😊💛
Once I dreamed of learning to be a farrier.
Do you still want to do it?
@@MarieAmicalola it is too late for me.
@@rosol_polski its never too late tho
Beautiful work!!
The Polish at the end is my favorite part
Sta facendo davvero un ottimo lavoro! Continua così!❤
The most satisfying part is him digging in to the hoof

Nice phenomenal work right there
Thats talent very impressed
¡Es increíble el trabajo y la dedicación!
Es un genio como desbasa
Absolutamente, aunque este caballo en específico no se estaba quieto 🤣
This is hipnotic

Amazing and perfect.

Awesome pedi 👏👏
Parabéns trabalho de profissional 🤔👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Have you ever had a horse reach around and bite you ? Would be good if you did a vid and told us what you are doing and why . What country are you in ,(state) Thanks for sharing .
I'm sure just about every farrier has been bit by a horse.
How long does it take for all that stuff to grow back?
4 to 6 weeks
5:50 que bien excelente trabajo amigo 👍 saludos
Hard work....but very rewarding 🥰
that knife is amazing
Happy Diwali from India ❤️
What is most impressive? The skills or the patience of the horse ?
Great video! I wonder if the horse knows what's going on? Probably. Hopefully you've never encountered an aggressive horse, that tried to hurt you.
What are the thin red lines in the white parts of the hoof?
This horse is stbborn!! ❤❤
I love this❣️
So satisfying ☺☺☺
The horse is probably like "awwww so so relaxing"
I'll try this on my cat with an old potato peeler. Thanks for the tutorial 👍.
😜
Awesome neat work,youre a Master sir.
I love this videos, i sleep whit this you R awesome man
Is that drill sander thing something you made or something you can buy? I’d really like one.
incredible!
Heels are soo high man. How is the frog supposed to get ground contact?
You’re a farrier?
I would love to see this done in real life. The craftsmanship and effort is super admirable to me.
Oros😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
I don't think I would ever do this, especially with such a squirmy horse!
9/10 rating. I heard chat gpt are coming for farriers next lol
Two front new tyres not bad 👍🏻
This is lit so satisfying!!
Silly question but do they use the same holes again to nail the shoes on?
De quanto em quanto tempo é necessário fazer este trabalho?
1 mes
I am allergic to horses but I would love to do this.
*EXCELENTE CHÉ!!*
I wanna ask, how do you know where to clean without hurting the horse?
I cant stop watching these lol
Вы такой молодец, супер!!!!!!!!!!
wow. great
How's the horse staying still while you are doing it
Молодец,профи своего дела👍
Do you think we could get a perspective of where you're hitting the hammer on the hoof when removing the shoe?
he’s driving a wedge under the clenched hook of the nail to straighten the hook. That way the nail will pull back through the hole easily as the shoe is pried off.
nice satisfation
4:30 is so satisfying
Hello! Question, what would happen if you didn’t do this and how to do wild horses cope with it?
Have you ever thought of purchasing or building your own cattle crash that is modified to hold horses? I know it can be done because there is a Chinese couple that post videos that have one that they built for large orc horses that they trim.

@@hazzif2403 the Hoof GP has a mobile cow crash. It goes behind his truck and about the size of a small RV trailer
@@shellcase20 Ahhh I see. Is it the thing that kinda locks the cow's leg?
@@hazzif2403 the entire cow goes inside the crush.. then there is a mechanism that grabs the cows leg and lifts while holding it in place.

Doesn’t the horse get hurt since there like peeling it’s skin-
@@cheesecake2545 ni
Shoes are necessary on hard surfaces like roads but I’m not sure about other places. Maybe rocky areas?
@@sofialurita4614 It doesn't seem like there are nerves there. Which makes sense when you think about it. Idk though
Well shoes can be very damaging. But it all depends on what the horse does daily/weekly. What the ground is like, even the weather. So it was possibly very good for the horses or completely useless.
is that blood?
Is it normal? He is pulling a bit, but I can't tell if it hurts or it's just a stubborn horse.
Nice. How often must this be done?
Every 4 to 8 weeks, it really depends on how fast the hoof grows back. Each horse will be slightly different.
Thank you for the information, I am new to this. I have subscribed.
You are awesome
Me turning the volume all the way up so I can hear the farrier man breathe: 🧍🏽♀️
Yeah I was waiting for the gloss
How do u know hoof right side & lleft side balance after u cut it? im wondering
Wow amazing🌳
Me: watching this video before sleeping 😌😴
Yummy! Horse parmesan cheese xD
What’s the benefit of burning the shoe on before nailing? I’m not worried I know it doesn’t hurt I’m just curious what difference that makes.
@Amanda Jane Hopkins
It will usually help to tell if the shoe is in the right place for a better fit.
