This type of content is so important, especially in North America where there can be VAST distances between where the cows are and where people live. It's easier for propaganda to spread when people don't know where their food comes from and how farmers care for their animals. This kind of thing showing farmers looking after their cows' health really helps to educate people and get over negative stereotypes.
I never thought in a million years that I would be addicted to this type of channel. But, you make it educational and fun. It's because you actually do care about the welfare of the animals and your profession. It really is a treat to watch your program. Keep up the good work. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I agree I'm hooked
Agreed 💯
Any job IS highly interesting when presented well. Greame is a passionate and highly articulate... so presents the topic clearly for the novice to pro.
Same...same!
Same, HAHAHA. My dairyman husband laughs at me for it 😆
Today I just found out that my podiatrist is a fan of yours. Isn't that awsome?
He definitely has a thing for feet. Lol
This is exactly the kind of public engagement I dreamed we could use to show how much farmers love and care for their animals.
You are doing so much good for the dairy industry, which has had more and more attacks from anti-farming groups.
Thank you for your honest and caring videos filled with the dedicated care of animals.
As Hoof GP was walking along recording, the cows had the following conversation:
Cow 1: “Girls! Look! It’s the Hoof GP.”
All other cows: “Ooooo!”
Cow 2: “I had a problem a few weeks ago and he fixed me right up. Such gentle hands.”
Cow 3: “It’s such a shame he’s not a bull.”
All other cows: “Oh, we agree. He’s dreamy!”
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
😆😆😅🤣🤣😍🤩😋😛
You go Graeme.
And they ALL want screen time, even to kiss the camera🤣🤣🤣🐄❤️
😆😆😆
Oh,I didn't know you could read cows minds.
I have horrible health issues and your channel helps me get through tough times. Sounds nuts, but it's true. Thank you.
Hope you're doing better.😊
I'm a huge random info nerd, but I love when you show us all the different types of technology and things farms are using to make for happier healthy cows. I know not everyone thinks about farming being or needing innovation, but clearly animal welfare/ability to produce is always one of their goals. As a consumer its just so interesting to see what kind of things go on to get milk into my fridge. Appreciate all you do with the different collabs and networking so you can bring this info to us! :)
I agree ! It's super interesting and shows us that feet welfare comes from many many different things
Well said.
Ah yes, random info nerd, find random yt videos, like this one as i go through random wiki pages. Random info, is best info!
Wish I could of found your words to explain why I felt “it was one of your better videos,” when I saw my comment a day later when I re-clicked on this video it didn’t even come close to what I was feeling or trying to say and instead it sounded more like criticism (hate when texting turns out that way😳) and not even close to explaining WHY I thought it was one of the better videos. I like and want to understand some of the influences/circumstances in a cow’s life and the potential impact to their hoof care and health. I do have a bit of experience in the dairy industry and was raised on a cow/calf ranch background & even with that amount of hands on experience & background knowledge which was passed down through the generations, I find myself still absolutely fascinated with the new equipment, discoveries & techniques even though I haven’t touched a cow in almost 25 years (I became a nurse in my second career). I find myself wishing that I could share all of the innovations & knowledge with my father and grandfather, if still alive they would of been 99 and 140 years old and of course they would of been stunned and my father especially would of gob-smacked to see those 2 new crushes; wouldn’t need a extra set of hands; no more roping cows; tying legs up or getting bruised & battered doctoring a cow.
Am I the only fan who loves rainy, stormy weather? I think your Scottish weather is wonderful!
Me too.
Even though I'm now old enough to be a retired person, I still try to include the idea of learning something new everyday.
Thanks to you and Craig for being a part of that.
This has been, hands down, my favorite video on this channel. seeing how the cows are kept and why was unbelievable. This video and this whole channel, have also really made me think about farms in general and how we treat these animals. Channels like these are so important and im glad to see its as popular as it is
No, I do not have a cow living in my apartment but I love learning about jobs like this. Jobs that most people don't know exist but have a huge impact on how we live. I also just love how enthusiastic you are about your work.
Mr. Hoof GP I grew up on a farm, and had to tend to the horses and cows, along with chickens, cows, turkeys, and pigs. For the winter, hands down, the best lower wear was insulated fishing waders. In the summer, of course something different. But the fishing waders saved me from freezing, I would guess, 30-40 times. Worth their weight in gold in the winter! Peace
This is such a great idea! 😊👍
Wouldn't mind seeing another collab-video with Tom Pemberton, now that his new shed is pretty much complete. Maybe a Hoof GP review of all Tom has done to improve cow comfort and hoof health? Love both your channels - keep 'em coming!
I think the gp should donate that green monster to Tom since he dose his own work and he can position it in one spot
great idea
Graham would approve of the new barn with the rubber matting
I love your idea of Graeme going to Tom's. I even mentioned it in one of Tom's vlog. No reply 😩
The green crush is Graemes new crush, why would he give that away. In one of his live vlogs Graeme did answer the question of the Appelton going to Tom. Merry Christmas to Graeme & Tom and their Families and Craig and his wife, and Camy from the Sheep Game, and his new family. While I'm at it, Sandi Brock from Sheepishly Me and her Family. 🐄🐑🎄🍾🥂🎉
Happy Holidays everyone
I’m a country boy who has never had large animals to care for. I love the education of this channel along with finding the hoof trimming (and reasons behind the trimming) utterly fascinating!!!!! Thank you so much for what you do and making this information available to everyone.
Can we all appreciate how insanely knowledgeable he is.
I’m so addicted to this channel. I just love how you care for these cows 🐄. God bless you man🙌🙌🙌
Having ridden my bicycle through more than one blizzard/ice storm, I can sympathize about the miserable weather. You're not soft, you're dedicated. Keep up the great work!
Thank you, Graeme, for teaching us about the importance of rubber matting, dividers that give and feed stalls with rubberized uprights instead of steel crossbars and concrete floors. I’m a daughter of a cattle rancher not a dairy farmer, so this is extremely interesting to me! I and hundreds of thousands of viewers really appreciate the knowledge you impart. Cheers to you and Craig and Keven. Take Care, Stay Well and most of all…God Bless You All❤️
Kudos to Bynam Farm!! Cows literally give us everything they have. So at the very least, we owe them a comfortable, stress-free and painless life. I love this channel because you demonstrate what you and farmers are doing to give the cattle the lives they deserve. Thanks. 🐄🥰🐄🥰
Very informative video. You did a great job.
Be sure to thank the farm for me for letting you video all around their sheds!!
Thanks❤️❤️
Wind looks like Wyoming. It stopped abruptly once and we all fell down.
🤣
Yeah, Wyoming has definitely got some of the wildest wind I’ve ever seen! Especially along I 80.
What I like the most about yours and Midwestern hoof is the love and care you have and show the cows.
I LOVE that you explain these things to those of us who have zero clue about these gorgeous animals.
Watching all the way from Ontario, Canada! Keep the videos coming, you are great at what you do! I work for John Deere and deal with a lot of dairy farmers. This helps me understand and appreciate what they deal with on their farms! Your videos are fantastic! I am addicted! Merry Christmas to you and your family!
This was really interesting Graeme! I knew bits and pieces of what can injure the cow’s hooves but you sure made it more understandable. Cheers!👍❤️
This is one of the best, most informative, videos you’ve put out in a LONG time. Love love LOVE the walkthrough showing us the difference between their living areas. Amazing how something as simple as rubber flooring can make such a drastic difference.
thank you for a longer and more informative video. alot of channels re putting out short little videos around the holidays and its been hard to find enough fresh content during the slower days. Thank you for not skimping on us.
Lovely explanation of how environment impacts (heh) the cows' feet! And no, I don't have a lot of practical use for the information here in the suburbs of NYC, but it's interesting to learn and soothing to watch.
Your foray into the windy wet put me in mind of one of my German great-uncles, who lived in a historic Einhaus or housebarn (it translates as "all-in-one house"). The Einhaus combined human living quarters with the animal barn, all under one big (thatched) roof. A stone wall with a pass-through door divided the human and animal halves of the building, and they were designed so that in winter, the heat from the cows helped keep the house warm, the heat from the hearth (which was against the shared wall) helped keep the younger animals warm, and the farmer didn't ever have to go outside in bad weather for feeding or milking. I remember asking my great-aunt if it was stinky to live there (I was about 6 or 7 when I asked this), and she said no, they mucked out regularly, so it mostly just smelled like hay.
We're doing well in my neck of the woods, though COVID's on the uptick again thanks to the new variant. :/ We just had our first snowfall a few days ago, and I'm dearly hoping for more. (I know, I know. But I love winter, and I'm a reference librarian, so it's not like I have to work out in the weather.)
I get the sense that cows are intensely curious creatures, because every single head in that shed was turned towards your camera while you were talking.
We have a home in Wales concerted from one of the same sort of house. Here they are called "hall houses". The animal end of the house is now a large bedroom, the loft over is the "crogloft".
A longer video made my day 😊☺
I have a rough week and I'm not feeling well but seeing you and cows make me feel better because you are always happy(even when it rains) :)
Get well soon 😊 sending you a big hug. ❤
Love a long video. Even with an explanation although I'm not a farmer. I find your videos very relaxing and educational. I had a few days filled with bad news and this helped me feel better for a little while, at least not to think about all that's happening around me. So, thank you
Monse Foster I hope things get better for you very soon! The Hoof GP is a fabulous distraction in the meantime. 🙂
@@jenwhite5387 thank you kind stranger. I received better news today.
@@MonserratFoster hooray!! I am so happy to hear that!
I loved the cows running around the corners like you're their favorite Rockstar and they are so excited to see you!
Graham, if for any reason you are ever unable to trim hoofs yourself you certainly would be the best teacher anyone could ask for, you are direct, extremely thorough in your explanation on procedure and reasoning of results expected and entertaining all in one and this is a rare talent indeed. I am a farm girl at heart, a 67 year old Canadian, retired and living in Mexico and have nothing what so ever to do with cattle but thoroughly enjoy your show and presentation. Keep up the good work and all the best to you and your family which is obvious you cherish. Love your humor!
I love how the cows are listening to everything you are saying! 😁
You kept me chuckling in the intro and I loved it even more that you continue our education about hoof care and repair. I'm a city girl through and through and I understood everything you said. You really care about these cows and it shows through your enthusiastic explanations.
You know, Graeme, now that I think of it, I'm better now than last time I remember you asking us viewers how we are. Still not good, per say, but I'm a long ways away from the depths I was previously at. It's quite a cathartic thought, realising all the progress I've made. Hopefully, I'll be even better than I am at the time of writing this comment and one step closer to enjoying this crazy adventure we call life, when again you ask us how we are!
Another amazing & Informative video Graeme. It must be so hard for farmers to weigh up whether to invest in the easyfix floorings especially considering were hearing more about how they're struggling just to get a good price on milk. Having watched a lot of BBC's Countryfile program over the years and they talk about farming a lot I truly feel for farmers of any kind but especially cattle, they do soo much for their animals & farm but get very little reward.
Now this is more like your earlier vids! Longer and more information. Now back to watching.
I wasn't jumping the gun, it is like the earlier ones. Thank you Graeme, I am fine, hope you and yours are too.
Glad to see you live in a nice large home. You deserve it you do such good and hard work! Thank you for showing us your wonderful profession
Hey Graeme, try using some Scotch Guard water repellent spray on your overalls and they won't be sponges anymore. 👍
Below is a comment that I agree with..As a city girl I never thought in a million years I'd love a channel such as The hoof gp. But what makes me keep coming back is the love and care he has for these precious beautiful creatures..God's creatures, cows, bulls Etc..I'm truly a big fan, I may not always leave a comment but trust and believe I'm always watching these wonderful videos..
Keep up the great work you do Graham, Oops can't forget your brother in law and your Lil helpers( your sons).. Please keep bringing us your fans more great videos..
Graham have you ever thought about getting yourself fisherman waders? They are waterproof after all and easy to clean from what I understand. Just a idea I had that I thought I would share with you. Hope you have a great weekend 🇬🇧🤗
I am 64 , born and raised in and around Philadelphia. The only thing I know about cows is milk and prime rib. I really enjoy these videos and Graham's attitude and calm demeanor. Thanks Graham.
You have made me appreciate cows and the work farmers do! Cows are adorable! I wish I could pet while you trim!
I'm a horse person, but I seriously enjoy your videos. Always happy to see a new upload. ❤️
Loved this video !! I watch all your videos and this one you told so much I wouldn't have known . The cows you were walking around were all so sweet looking ❤🐄 like you could hug them .
I have lived next to farm land my entire life but have learned more about cows and farms by watching several of your video then by living in my area. That alone earned a sub from me. You also seem liked a really good and caring bloke. 👍
It's good to see that most farmers really do look after their cows. I always look forward to the educaitional talk you do on the best ways to look after the cows hooves. Keep up the good work you guys.
I absolutely love how you have taught me so much about the correlation between the importance of these ladys hoofs care and their overall health. I respect and admire the passion you show for your work and the high standards you impose for the betterment and happiness of these cows/bulls. You are truly an inspiration. If the world had an ounce of your passion, dedication and love for what they do in life...well, it would certainly be a better one. Until then, Ive take over the task of having all my close friends look you up and be enchanted every time we get to see your world.
Many 😊 thanks .
On the Christmas front, my work is waffling on whether to have a department gift exchange/white elephant, so today I went and got an enameled cast iron dutch oven. If we end up not having one, then I get a dutch oven for myself!
Excellent program, learn something new each time I watch. Love the program and the education I receive. As a young person working on a small dairy farm in Michigan brings back memories
This is my favorite video of yours too date. I liked seeing an explanation into the pens and paths, as well as effects on feet.
That was so interesting even if I don’t have any cows - thank you for being so informative- makes me appreciate what wonderful animals they are and how much you care about their welfare. Fascinating 🤨
Absolutely love that you've done it like you always have, informative, fun and just how I love the Hoof GP vids, please don't change 🙏🏻
You’re so adorable with your commentaries and after-thoughts- which would normally be edited out, but I love that you leave them in & make them humorous & interesting. All farms should adapt the ‘creature comforts' of this one - thank you for the tour! ❤
Hey Graeme! I'm doing good, thank you for asking! I just finished up with final exams and now I only have one last semester at college. I love videos like this, by the way. Learning new things is always good, even if I don't ever plan on owning cows, hahaha
Never thought I would get addicted to people working on cattle hooves but here we are
Love your videos
Mr GP, you wouldn’t have Craigie Boy any other way… love your video’s, love the cows, & the banter….🤍🐄🤍
You, are exactly what makes a great teacher, you explain the whole way through! True story
I love how you explain the proper care for these animals. You're so detailed in the information while still adding positive and outgoing delivery of information.
I have become addicted to your channel!!! I LOVE learning about all animals. I watch a lot of Dr Pol on Nat Geo channel and you remind me of him of how you love and treat animals with such passion!
I just showed my mom a bunch of your videos last night and she loves all the same stuff I do.
Hello to you, sending much love to you your loved ones AND all the cows!!
From Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Really interesting tying together the problems with what causes them. It’s also interesting that the new crush seems like it allows you both to work on the same cow, decreasing the stress on it by reducing the time they are in the crush.
Thanks for all the hard work that you put into these videos. I learn so much! I work on human feet and seeing hoof care is so cool!
I learn new things in this channel! Im not a farmer though, but its great to know that cows has those luxurious mats and foams and carved ways to give them comfort. Awesome channel! Proud to be part of the herd!
I’ve been fascinated by what you do ever since you showed up in my recommended videos. I grew up raising beef cattle and we never even looked at their hooves. They were raised for food so, if one went lame, it went to the processor and into the freezer. We never even called a vet. We delivered the stuck calves and castrated the steers ourselves. We even loaded the semi trailers when they were sold off. It’s good to know that they didn’t need regular trims since they lived a mostly wild life on a hundred-plus acres. Thanks for another great video!
I work in Plymouth, Mass USA. I was on the phone with a customer when I had to put them on hold and acknowledge a fellow member of the herd!! He was wearing your sweatshirt. You are well represented here my friend. Trim on!!!
Thanks for explaining. I get it now. My dads cows only stood on concrete when being milked. In winter when weather was bad he kept them in but for the cows health he let them out as much as he could. They had an area next to the barn where they could go for shelter and it was dirt. You did a good job.
I like listening to you because it reminds me about my childhood. My father was in the army and my mother was an attorney specializing in international law. When we were in Germany, since they both worked, I had a nanny who was from Scotland. I forget the town but it was in the northern part of the country. Her voice was always a comfort to me in bad days and your accent reminds me of her. Good memories.
Doing well Graeme!! Looking forward to Christmas myself with family. Then I'm going to be sleeping in a barn come the 2nd of January. I have 4 mares that I'm looking after, and 1 is already starting to bag up a bit. So, I'll be in my Arctic sleeping bag on an Army cot, right outside her stall. Just in case she has trouble delivering. Wishing everyone a Safe and Happy Holiday Season!! From Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 💖 🇨🇦
Camera and a monitor program for your phone?
The things we’ll happily do for the animals in our care.
I'm in St. Catharines!!❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦❤
Waterloo, ON here! Great to see so many Canadians here!
Canada rocks!!!❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦❤
I was at a friends farm this week and they had a guy Tim come out. So I watched him
And he said you wanna try. What did I learn. People like him and others deserve a lot of credit
This was super informative and interesting! I would think the investment in their herd by adding softer ground materials would make it standard practice these days.
I've lived in a major city my entire life, never even been on a farm. But I absolutely love this channel!!
Its just a lovely overcast, rainy-drizzle day in the Pacific Northwest of Washington and Oregon state coastal weather !!!!
Hi guys. Drumheller Alberta Canada here. I appreciate that you have fun while working. Still diligent. Have a great day.
Thank you for taking us on a tour of the farm. Farming has come a long way in advance practices for ensuring comfort for the animals. My grandpa when he was alive and farmed I remember things being very different. Floors were just cement, nothing was automated. My dad sat on a stool and milked. But he was a great farmer and did well.
Hi There...I feel exactly like the person who commented just before me. I watched one video because I was bored and now I'm hooked and subscribed about 2 months ago. I love seeing your sweet little family and the love you give to the cows. That's good for kids to see that when you have animals you take care of them. The lessons about taking care of cows that you share with us is very interesting... God Bless You and your family. LuvYa! Bye from Ohio USA 🇺🇸
Great video, as usual! I learned a ton! Thank you for sharing your passion with the world. You are a class act!
As for us, we’re doing well in windy Wyoming! I wish you, Craig and your families continued health and happiness! Much love!
I'm from the Maitland clan. .one of my ancestors was a Sargent of Arms in the Queens court. So much history. Scott's are awesome people. Would like to visit some day.
It is so good to know that these girls have more comfort, safety and care. What a difference from less caring circumstances. And why not, they give food to us, and I am glad some are humanely raised and giving the milk with less pain or discomfort. Thanks for the news. Happy Holidays to you and yours !! 🎄🎅🏻🎄🤶🏻
Graeme, I really enjoyed this "behind the scenes - video" comparing older to newer barns, and explaining why the flooring is important. I hope you'll do a new/updated version 🙏🥰
I love that you genuinely care for the cows and how they are treated.
Your videos are well made - music, narration, content & passion for your work. I find myself coming back for a topic I usually would give 5 seconds.
Hope you, Craig and both your families have a Christmas full of magic and love x
The cows coming out at 3:30 is brilliant, what an amazing sight that was.
Thanks for the tour through the different barns and accommodations for the cows. Really interesting. Your extensive knowledge helps you be the world class trimmer you are! 🐮❤️
I have the say one reason why I like watching this guy's videos so much is he is so polite and so respectful of the cattle that he takes care of and his music's a lot of fun especially as opening music I wish I could find that for the ringtone for my wife.
You’re always so chipper! Merry Christmas to you, Craig and your lovely families!🎄🙏🏼👍🏻❤️🐄
On your last video I watched you asked fans to give you our locations. I am a 75 year old MeeMaw. I live in Round Rock, Texas. We are about 20 minutes north of Austin, Texas our state capitol.
LOVE your program. VERY interesting!!
And the winner of 'Salesman of the Year' goes to... Graeme Parker 🏆👏👏👏
Thanks for taking us along that every step it is so hot here you got a pool rain we all have to thank God for our blessings
Graham, we have 4 feet plus of snow here in Northern Ontario in Canada. We just had a few days of -30 Celsius. I feel ya haha. Another great video. Hopefully you guys get not too bad weather coming up.
Thanks for explaining all this in-depth! I learn so much from your videos. I love seeing when the cows feel better😊
Super, great information great delivery and lovely cows! The hoof trimming and fixing the ulceration makes me happy and satisfied. Thank you for this episode. 🇨🇦
Great video! I love how you explained all the benefits of different mechanisms, and how to prevent white line problems.
Don’t own a cow, never been to a farm, extremely addicted to this channel! Good work you do and excellent explanation of the situation each vidy! Also funny bits as well. Cheers mate!
Thank you for that in-depth look into what environments are best for a cow's feet and why!
Love that this is an old school longer video! 😊... I did miss them to be honest 😅, but all of your content is great, regardless of how long it is and I appreciate the longer videos do take more time!
Love the channel. My grandfather was born and raised in somerset. And I believe that I still have family there. I hear it's beautiful.
Great video - cows are wonderful animals and it’s great to see how much you genuinely care for their well-being.
I wish I lived there. I live in Washington State, EASTERN Washington State. Its 100 degrees F in the summer and looking outside right now, I have 3' (feet) of snow with ice. I would go for a gorgeous country with rain and wind. I know its so beautiful there...plus, the quality of life is superior from EVERYTHING I've read and heard. God bless you and yours. Thank you for being the best farrier(?) Husband, dad, educator and for your sharing your work. Hugs from a snowy place, Newport, WA.
Your videos are getting so polished! Another great episode of the Hoof GP. Cheers!
