    I always read through the herds comments - I love you’re interactions with each other and how genuinely friendly everyone is in the comment section - Im writing this comment to say thank you for you kind words on this video - I absolutely love making videos and love the artistry and story that goes into one’s like this - I’m just sorry I’m so busy that I’m not able to make as many like this as I’d like to

      I've been following your channel for years now, and you are an incredibly positive person and a fantastic role model. Thank YOU for sharing your little slice of life with all of us; whether it's a short clip or a thirty-plus minute video, your content is a blessing!! And this Herd is amazing too! Proud to be a small part of it!

      I don't know why one of your video's popped up in my feed because I had never looked up anything feet online before (maybe I looked up shoes?? lol). And I honestly thought "what is this shit??". Then curiosity got the better of me and I started watching. One video turned into 2 which turned into a few more and soon enough I'd hit the subscribe button.
      As said, I don't know why, but I'm glad it did.

      Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I, too, have limitations that make my life more challenging. Depression, anxiety, and autoimmune disease are a daily battle. I just wanted to say hello... I'm thinking of you today. I, too, find solace in these heartfelt, beautiful videos. It does my heart good to see this young man, his family, and his team do all they can to decrease the suffering of these most noble and humble creatures. I hope you have a good day today. I'll think of you later today and send you some good thoughts today. 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄

    I’m an ITU nurse and I’m thinking I need a career change. Being pooped on by cows seems much better than being pooped on by humans. And cows are so much cuter than humans. And probably smell nicer than some humans too. Weighing up the pros and cons-cows win every time.

    It's amazing to me how many different people in the world are absolutely taken in by these videos. Even if you've never seen a cow in person in your life, a lot of the herd seems to feel a kinship and a comfort in watching a complete stranger ease the pain and suffering of these great beasts. It's really nice to see, in the world we live in today, that this is the sort of thing people seem to instinctively know to come together over.

    I want to thank you for sharing what you do. Coming across The Hoof GP I had no idea and I am so glad I have learnt something new this week. I am so grateful that it has subtitles as I am hearing impaired in both ears. I am watching you guys from Melbourne, Australia and I really enjoy how you go the extra mile in explaining what your doing, why , how it gets to that stage to need treatment and what to do treating the hoof. I call that fantastic customer service skills. You make it so interesting in what you guys are doing, that it maybe a good 30 mins before its time to watch another one. How you interact with each other , you all know what is required of your role in working together. Love the scenery around your travels to different farms. So good to see and hear how proud you are of where you live. I feel the same way about Melbourne.
    Well done .

    This channel is just so very engrossing! I don’t know how l came here but after watching one video l was absolutely hooked!!
    The way you treat every cow you come across is admirable. The compilation of the videos means you learn as well as being entertained. I am now subscribed and eagerly await new videos. Thankyou Graeme for all you are doing. I wish you and your team the very best now and for the future. God bless. Big hugs from Australia!!

    You had some beautiful sunny days! I've been in Florida all 48 of my years. I think I'd be depressed without sunshine. The landscape you have is stunning! Here I do live on a bit of a hill. That basically means I'm ABOVE sea level. 😊 Having worked with show horses all my life, I appreciate the importance of the hooves of large animals! My personal show horse had a terrible start to his hoof life as he was kept in a wet stall. We spent 15 years fighting yeast infections and no heel growth. He was a National Show Horse, half-Arabian/half-Saddlebred. A show career of using pads and wedges to give him a heel to meet his performance resulted eventually in arthritis, tendinitis, and broken sesamoids. With retirement, he had a lot of pasture time with specially-made shoes on his hind feet. I did give riding lessons on him and taught my children to ride. He lived to 31½ yrs old with us treating him like a prince. A farrier every 4 weeks and our vet doing his best to keep our Buddy from pain. Then came a day that he could not use his hind legs to stand up. He wanted to. For us. Doc loved Buddy as he knew this horse was a member of our family. We'd had him since he was two years old. It was a hard decision that night but he'd given us all he could. He truly was my first love. So, I really enjoy watching as you carefully trim these cows to give them the best chance at comfort and rehabilitation. Your accent is great to follow too. AND your humor. My children are sarcastic and I love it!

      The Hoof GP truly has the health and happiness in mind for all the animals that he comes across. I also appreciate his humor and the love he has for his family and homeland.
      I recently lost my beloved German Shepherd dog. He was a dog that I got when he was a year and a half old after being abused and neglected by his first two owners. As his disability was in his mind and not his body it took a lot of love, patience and training for him to become the best friend I knew he could be. We had 7 wonderful years together before 2 tick born illnesses had ravaged his body. The decision to let him pass with dignity over the Rainbow Bridge was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I can't imagine watching a family member of over 30 years struggling to remain with you for just a few moments longer. As much as you loved him and wanted him to be with you always, you made the most loving final decision for his sake. My sincere condolences on the loss of the deep friendship that you shared. He'll be there waiting to see you again when the time comes. ❤😘

      Living on a hill has very little to do with 'living above sea level'. I think louisiana is the only state below sea level. I don't live on a hill but like most people live above sea level. Do a little reading/geography

      @@janetwilliams8630 Hey, Karen! This was a video from The Great Hoof GP. My comment was along the lines of his video and how hooves go bad when in wet environments. Do you have livestock? Or is it just your week to bitch? I won't be back to see your reply. I'm on the beach today, celebrating my friend's birthday. So nice to live on huge, green pastures shaded with oak trees and live just a few miles from palm trees at the beach. Did I mention I love my home? I pray you find some sunshine.

    Always enjoy seeing the beautiful countryside of Scotland through your videos. Also it is always educational as you explain what you are doing whilst trimming the hooves. Those animals are lucky to have you and your team going to their farms to give them their spa treatments. 💕 from Perth, Australia 🇦🇺

    Maybe it's because I've learned so much already from watching all your videos, but I think this might be one of your calmest and most lecture-like videos to date and I love it! You're a great teacher, probably because apart from skilled, you're also so very passionate.

    Through your videos Humble Hey have gained a massive new fan in me. I love the songs you use, especially Brave. Going through a really tough time, mental health wise, lately and that song in particular means a lot to me. Watching your videos, even though I have absolutely nothing to do with farming or cows, gives me something to look forward to as they are so interesting. I love cows, and it's fascinating to see how you do what you do to make them more comfortable. I stumbled across your videos a while back and I don't know why but I'm addicted! Thankyou for doing what you do. Your sunny outlook always cheers me up a little bit. It's nice to see someone that loves what they do as much as you do! X
