Hi from Florida, USA. I was a university professor of psychology for 30 years. I have stage 4B cancer at 72 years old. I enjoy watching you work. I've never seen anything like it. Thank you for what you do for the dear cows.
Prayers and blessing to you and asking a miracle for you. 2011 i was diagnosed with stage 3 pancreatic and common bile duct cancers, given 6 months. A 2% survival was all. I am one of the 2. It is a real blessing and miracle to survive this. I pray He will give you grace and survival. We are only 6 years apart.❤💫💫💫❣
I am a 49 y/o retired US Army officer who spent over a decade as a Ranger, doing what Rangers do. I cowboyed all through my youth and lived on a working ranch with over 500 head of cattle. I was blown up in 2008 and spent a little over 6 months in a coma. I spend my time now doing rehab and adoring my wife who has been by my side every single day since I was medically evacuated out of theater. Thank you for what you do, caring for animals.
Please tell me someone else read "YELLOW, MUSHY COW'S HOOF SLICED OFF!" and said to themselves, oh, that sounds like a good one? I so don't want to be the only one who thought that.
I am a 50yr old married mom of three. Been married to my high-school sweetheart for 33 yrs this past January. I've pretty much always been a "housewife" raising the kids and doing the thing that housewives and mom's do. I've never had cows but I've had other farm animals for most of my life. My main focus was breeding chickens but quality birds, not just mutt birds, lol. That came to a screaching hault in July of 2019, when my life changed forever. My first born child, my son, died in a tragic drowning accident. Since then, finding any sort of joy has been very VERY difficult. I've survived Cancer, Diabetes, and all sorts of life problems and illnesses, but losing him isn't something I can survive...it's something that I'm forced to live with. There's not a choice and as someone who has always been the one to try and "fix" things, it's incredibly painful that I can't fix this. I don't know how I stumbled across your channel but I'm glad I did. It gives me a respite or a sort of light that helps me through the daily grief. I have what's called "complicated grief", meaning I can't, even five years later, face the fact that my son is gone forever. It's really hard and so utterly devastating but I'm grateful for you, your channel, and the absolute incredible beauty of your homeland. If I were a wealthy woman, I'd move my whole family there. Thank you for all that you do. As I've said before, you're putting smiles on faces all across the world just being yourself and sharing what you do for a living. I would LOVE to meet you one day and give you a great big Tennessean hug! lol Here's where we say "y'all" and "howdy" and call people honey and sweetie pie. Anyway, that's me in a nutshell. If not for my husband, my other two children, and people like you, I'd have given up on life five years ago. So truly, THANK YOU GRAHAM!
I'm 28 years old I am a full time home maker with three toddlers. I live in the USA and I love watch your videos because they are relaxing and I enjoy watch animals(and humans) get the help they need.
I’m almost 78, staying on the farm in northwest Missouri, USA, which has been in my family since 1860. Found your channel while researching the raising of cattle. Lots of info - thanks !!
Graham, I’ll be 80 next month, am a retired USAF communications officer with over 50 years service to the DoD. I live in Northern Virginia and I have been watching your channel for several years now and have really enjoyed the quiet way you treat the animals. You are always kind and knowledgeable in your craft and your channel has gotten me through some tough times. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you and your dedication. Thank you.
I'm a 19 y/o med student from South Africa. These videos make me feel extremely satisfied and remind me why I want to help people, like you help the cattle.
Hi Graeme! I am currently a 20 year-old civil engineering student in the West Midlands. I have been watching your videos as a form of therapeutic procrastination when I should really be studying 😂 It's so cool to see so many people from different walks of life coming together to watch these videos to calm ourselves down after a long and busy day. I love reading these comments!
I just wanted to add, what you do is amazing helping animals, but you also help me too, my son died and I always watch tour channel in bed so it’s the last thing to think of before sleeping because I suffer with flashbacks of my sons passing that this calms me and distracts me it’s now 5.30 am uk time and I’ve woken up so here I am again. Thanks for everything you do, you don’t just help the cows you help humans too. God bless 😊
I’m Jennifer, 50y/o from the USA. I teach high school kids with special needs. I love animals, always have- and love that you have such a passion for caring for them. It’s much like my students.
I am a 61 year old disabled lady who makes polymer clay dragons. I've done all kinds of jobs including being a zoo keeper. I find these videos relaxing and help manage my stress.
Currently going through the comments and it’s heartwarming to see how this channel brings all kinds of people from different backgrounds together. ❤️ I’m 26, from Montreal, Canada 🍁 currently battling depression and I just find this content very calming and satisfying! Thanks for sharing your work with us, you’re not only helping these cows but you’re also helping humans too 🙏🏼
Hoping you find your way through the depression, as I have also suffered from depression. I'm 62 from the US. It can be an ongoing battle, but I'm sure you'll come out on the other side and use your experience to move forward and find satisfation in life. And yes, the content of these videos is calming and satisfying. If an injured cow can find relief and healing, so can we
I’m Gabe, 17 and I graduated high school yesterday with my final exams in one weeks time. I got recommended one of your videos out of the blue and have loved every single one. It’s such a niche video topic you’ve found yourself an audience for its great.
Congratulations on graduating brother. Seems like yesterday for me and that was 1982!😭 May the Lord bless you and protect you in your life and your future and life's challenges that lie ahead with His will and guidance amen. God luck and don't forget to put the Lord first HE will definitely 100%. Never forget to put us 1st in everything we do in life. God bless
I am 69 years old and raise apples. Your channel has exposed me to a world I have never seen before. Your accent and explanations draw me in. Your compassion for the cows is limitless. I am observing and learning at the same time. Thank you. Hello from Yakima, Washington.
I'm 52 years old, I live in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I'm a Psychologist. I watch your channel because I love animals and how you make them feel better with your work. Thanks
I am a 37 year old "retired" registered veterinary technician living in Ontario, Canada. I worked in a small animal practice for 15 years before leaving the profession last fall. Due to the death of my husband 5 years ago, I have recently been diagnosed with Anxiety and PTSD. I have trouble falling asleep sometimes, and I find watching your videos is so calming and helps me drift off into a calm, cow induced sleep. Thank you for being you! In a profession (and really, a world) that is riddled with burnout and compassion fatigue, it is so refreshing and heart warming to see someone still truly love what they do! Thank you for all you do. For the cows, and for us, the herd. ❤️
I can so relate! I actually checked myself into the funny farm for a week due to severe anxiety. That was years ago, and I have since learned to cope much better. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband.
I'm sorry hon. My heart goes out to you. I'm reminded of a country song. Don't know the name. Something about walking thru hell. "Keep walking before the devil knows you're there." Since covid started I've struggled with my anger. Not at home, but work. I have no patience. Like a rubber band stretched soo tight it's about to to snap. Never give up. There is still beauty in the world. You're just one example.
I too can relate as I retired from school teaching before the proper age but in time for a heart attack followed by heart failure, a permanent condition, plus chronic pain from herpes zoster for years which keeps me in bed where I am and unable to sleep. So, like you, I watch the hoof doctor and marvel at his skill and appreciate his company in the middle of a winter's night. Hang in there, Kim.
Diagnosed with severe depression, anxiety, and ptsd, I am alive. Your videos help fill my thoughts with something other than the mess I am in. Thank you. Sorry for not being comfortable enough to say more. I appreciate your care and attention you give towards the animals you treat. I also appreciate the lessons you teach about the biology and techniques you use. Both your older videos and current ones do a wonderful job teaching to multiple demographics and the language and delivery you use is absolutely impeccable. The lessons are well structured and still always put the animals in your stewardship first. Sometimes I learn something new. Sometimes I get to apply what I have learnt in other videos and see if I can follow along your care choices. You do a wonderful thing.Keep it up. Tell Craig that he's doing bloody fantastic as well.
Mark, hang in there - been there, done that, and you will see the rainbow at the end of the storm. Trust me! May Father God, His Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior, and the Holy Spirit work to and through you to heal you completely from the "mind games" the evil ones play for your soul! You were made in the image of God and are His child - never forget you are NOT alone - EVER!
I feel you . I suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder, watching these videos help me sleep and allow me to replace unhealthy and bad thoughts and I’m able to remain calm
Thats an accomplishment!🎉❤ Myself i have, BPD, anxiety, depression,PNES, Cptsd and im on the autism spectrum. So ive been there friend. Hang in there!🥰
I’m a 40 year old shipping agent working in New Orleans, getting oceangoing vessels in and out the Mississippi River. I discovered this channel a couple of weeks ago. I’m not sure why but there’s something strangely satisfying about watching you work on cows.
I’m 57 and retired for New York subway as a car inspector. I love watching you guys taking care of those cows and bulls. I use to milk cow as a lad my family owns cows and bulls in the Island where I’m from(Puerto Rico).I know you guys are making a different on the way the cow feels . I have seen other people do what you do and you guys are awesome. Right now I reside in Philadelphia. I would love to learn on how to make the cow healthier.
Hello, Awake At The Wheel, You must be having quite challenging times with the Mississippi River as low as it is. I wish you well and hope you and all of my New Orleans friends and colleagues are safe and well. 💕💕🙏
Right? My subscriptions are full of people who love what they do.. Most of them are in fields I have little interest in, but watching someone who is passionate about what they do is the best thing in the world.
@@gewglesux Chukar, partridge, similar to Hungarian Partridge. Probably quail, too, if he's from So Cal. Not a lot of water, riparian, or waterways that far south, more arid country.
I'm 48 and live in Sumner, Iowa. I grew up on a dairy farm. I remember the hoof trimmer coming to our house to trim the cows. It is still interesting after all these years. And I do not agree with the people who say, " If you have seen one cow, you have seen them all." They are all different to me. I love to watch you work.😂
I’m a 51 year old Registered Nurse in Texas. I grew up near my grandparents and uncle’s dairy. I’m not sure how I came upon your channel but I enjoy watching the work you do and I have tremendous respect for the care and compassion you demonstrate. I wish more people understood how much time and money farmers, ranchers, and dairymen invest in their livestock.
I'm a 75-years-old woman in the USA, not far from New York City, and I've been a radio engineer, a radio deejay, a webpage designer, and a few other odd (very odd) jobs. I like watching the way you work with the animals - you're so gentle and kind with them, they know you're not there to hurt them. And I like seeing the beautiful scenic countryside you drive through. My scenery isn't nearly as scenic as yours. And I love listening to your accent!
I’m a Registered Nurse and Deputy Director of Nursing Services. I always wanted to be a Vet. I’m 59 and live in Australia. Wounds interest me and I love watching you work and explain everything single step in the hoof trimming process. I love that you’re all kind to the animals. I enjoy seeing them walk away from your trims, much better than they were before the trim. It’s also heart warming to see how very passionate you are about the work that you do!
I would love to get in contact with you I have so many questions ! I’m trying to take a path in the medical field in America idk how much different it is but I still would like to listen to your thoughts. TIA
77 year old retired Registered nurse who spent 50 years helping heal humans. It's great watching you help these animals heal.. keep up with your good work ❤
"Or so I thought....." And then everyone leans closer to the screen. BTW - 55 yo livestock vaccine scientist. I've been in public health for the past ten years. Keep our critters healthy - keep diseases from jumping into the human population. Win-win.
@@art1muz13 I hooked up a 27" tv screen to my computer. TH-cam looks sharp! But my games are so fuzzy I can't see them lol. I wonder how youtubes display differs from games.
I’m Anthony, 26 and I’m an engineer from Ghana, West Africa. And been subscribed since last year but never left a comment. I’m so glad you brought this up. What amazes me about your videos is how you got better with editing and I like how that makes me feel cos I feel grew with you through this channel! and how, one cow at a time, you make their world a better place. All the best to whoever reads this and happy life!❤️
My son is a 26 year old Anthony 😀. I hope you've been keeping safe and well, sending you love and good wishes across the many miles between Ghana and England.
I came across your channel while watching Dr pimple popper lol, I love watching how much you care about the cows I’m 44 years old I’m from Yorkshire in the UK,
I'm 58 from Michigan USA. I'm an accountant who found your channel one day on my feed. I've been hooked ever since. I can tell you truly love what you do, and that makes you very enjoyable to watch.
I’m 61. I come from Ireland. My mothers family has a farm and I’ve spent time around cows. I have no idea why I’m obsessed with watching you, apart from how lovely you are to the cows.
Dawn USA 62, I'm taking care of my husband with terminal cancer, your utube makes me happy, keep up the good work, I am also the only female demolition contractor in my state
I’m a 46 year old middle school science teacher. I came across your videos about a month ago and I’m loving them! I’m in Wisconsin so we’re all about cows. I live in the edge of a city but down the street are two dairy farms and I can hear them mooing if my windows are open. 😁
I’m Louise I’m 46 from derby I had a stroke back in 2017 which has left me disabled. I like your video’s there very soothing to me and seeing the cow walking better after being in so much pain is so nice. And your not bad to look at either graham 😊 xx
I'm a 27 years old veterinarian in Belgium. Even though my job is focused on small animal veterinary, when I come home I sit back and relax to watch your videos about cow's hoofs. Really mind-calming, thanks!
I'm Greg, 71 from the USA, a retired medical professional and software engineer. My father-in-law had cattle and I was always grilling him about cows. I find it fascinating the amount of skill and knowledge required to properly care for hoofs.
Hi Hoof GP fam! My name is Grace I’m 49 and a high school Biology teacher in Los Angeles. I found your channel after following Dr. Pimple Popper (because puss and abscess are fascinating for some reason). When you came up on my feed my life got better! I grew up with horses and married a man born in Scotland. Between my affinity for your beautiful country, farm life, fathers that adore their wives and kids, and gross abscesses, your channel is my happy place. It is a joy to support your channel.
I am the department head of agriculture at a farm store, watching your videos has really helped increase my knowledge of cow comfort and hoof related products. Live in Michigan and I am 37. Thanks for all you do for our 4 legged friends!
I can’t believe that as I was scrolling down to see what others had to say I saw my sisters name and the best part is I know my brother follows you also. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Anyway, I’m 64 and on disability, but before that I was a High School Teacher for 15 years and I absolutely loved my students and would much rather be in the classroom with them. Of course the best part is watching you guys take such good care of the girls and the occasional big boy!!!!

56 years old. I’m a program coordinator at a local Food Bank. Your videos are soothing and I love seeing you help out all the cows. Thanks for all you and your whole team do.
I’m a 60 yo retired lady veterinarian living in Cullman, Alabama. Use to work on a dairy in my youth and I absolutely adore the excitement and positivity in these videos. All this spills over into the care of these servants we call cattle and as a veterinarian, that’s a tremendous blessing. I love the Hoof GP and the beautiful scenery too!
I'm a 60 yr old Registered Nurse with 37 yrs in Labor & Delivery. I live in the USA & I've had horses for most my life. I've dealt with some serious hoof injuries & ailments over the years. I came across your videos & found them fascinating & informative. I love the enthusiasm you demonstrate in your work & the compassion you exhibit for the animals.
Retired foster mom, parent, school bus driver, wife, doxie mom, age 67, Northern California USA. I love this show, the beauty of Scotland, the everyday work, simple yet very important. Sometimes when you show their little faces, I just want to reach out and kiss them. Thank you for sharing your life with us, it feels like a little vacation for me. That just brought a tear. ♡♡♡
I’m Carrie almost 56 years old from Salem, Oregon, USA. I am the operations manager for a non-profit facility called Horses of Hope Oregon. We offer riding sessions for people with disabilities. It’s my favorite place in the world to be. I enjoy your videos because you are caring for animals.
I am 57 and a retired fire captain and paramedic from sunny Central Florida! I have no experience with farming or animal husbandry of any kind - but I do enjoy watching talented craftsmen who do excellent work, enjoy what they do, and provide me with a little more education that I otherwise would not have. I would watch anyone do anything if they had your personable style, jovial attitude and dedication to doing a good job every time. There are lessons to be learned from that regardless of the job. Keep up the excellent work!
Jeff, I'm 25 and I'm in the process of buying my adopted parents dairy farm in Wisconsin. I just watch your videos to learn more information on how I can keep the cows comfortable and get the most milk out of them as possible.
@@jefferywegner5387 give it time, ours didn’t use it for like 2 years then One day when flys were bad during the summer (idk if that had anything to do with it or not) in Texas there was a line backed up to use it 😂
I’m Sue, 64 years old. I’m a registered nurse, and I live in Connecticut in the US. My dad was a dairy farmer and then a vocational agriculture teacher. I enjoy watching medical videos and you! You’ve got a great personality. Your love for the cows and bulls shows through!
i am a registered nurse ann 72 years young !!! originally from ohio, moved to the panhandle in florida; love anime, using my computer, and watching youtube !!!! thanks for asking !!! :D
I’m Ethan, 19, and I’m a college student in the USA studying to become a mortician. I randomly got suggested one of these videos, and as a lot of my family are/were farmers I find this stuff fascinating. Plus, it’s very satisfying to watch you carve away hoof horn
I'm 19 as well, same as you i got recommended them randomly and Im glad i did cause this is one of the few farm channels i love, my favorite channel is Weedem and Reap
Found your channel about two years ago when I was recovering from overwork and depression. Helped me focus on something else and relax. Been here ever since ❤ Love from a 50 year old digital communications strategist in Sweden.
I'm 57, been disabled over 10 yrs. I'm in Central Texas in the U.S. I never knew cows & bulls needed their hooves trimmed until I came across one of your videos. This is so fascinating.
Not on your continent. But me too Teresa - we know about farriers and my friend with llamas and alpacas have their feet checked but I'd never considered cows need it. I found channel 6 months ago, and have been fascinated ever since. Take care.
According to one of his other videos which I was watching the other day, one of the reasons that the cows have so many hoof problems and they have to really stay on top of them, is because the environment there is so much wetter than say Texas or most anywhere in the US. He said that wetter environment led to a lot more hoof problems than you would have in a dry environment. Which could be why I’ve lived in Texas all my life I’ve never heard of pasture cattle (or free-roaming cattle) having this much trouble with their hooves. I can understand the high maintenance on the dairy cattle.
I’m a 37 yo massage therapist from New Jersey. I started watching during lockdown last year because I like animals far more than I like most people. The drone footage is also amazing.
I'll be turning 28 soon enough and I'm an automation engineer in Germany. I somehow got you in my recommended one day and couldn't stop watching ever since that happened. I grew up on a farm so it really makes me happy and feel like home listening to how much you care about the well-being of each of the cows.
16:27 I live in Ohio USA. I am 80 years old woman. Watching your videos remind me of growing up on a farm and the care you give your animals. My father cared also so it is good to see. I like the relationship you have with your brothers-in- law. Using a block is of course new to me. My father cared for the animals himself except in times of injuries or illness. That’s when you could depend on the other farmers. When I look back, they were all good people.
I’m a 45 year old attorney with my own firm in California. I ran across your channel a while ago (I think there were only 10K of us back then) and I’ve stuck around because I love the enthusiasm, energy, and sheer joy you express in everything you do. I have no idea if this carries into every part of your life, but just watching the part you share with us brings joy to me.
I'm Diego, I'm 25, watching for a year or so already! I'm from Sao Paulo, Brazil and have absolutely no connection to cattle or anything, but the vibes on this channel are so incredible and so fun to watch and see everything. I'm that kind of "backseat" watcher, that will just go and say "ah, that looks like a white line fracture, or that is definitely covered in digital dermatitis", love the channel, and love how the TH-cam algorithm took me all the way here!
I'm a stay at home mom of three, 35 years old, live in Turkey and I'm dreaming of having a small farm on a self sufficient level. Love watching your videos on how to take care of the cows feet. I grew up in a farming environment with both pigs, horses, cows, goats, cheeps, hens, cats and dogs. Used to be a caretaker before the kids arrived and know that happy feet means happy life 😁
@@alyssasabrae7943 chickens and sheeps are not the same thing. They are called chickens before they are named hen or rooster. Sheep are the animals you usually have for their wool, meat or/and milk. I hope this gave you the answer you were looking for 🤔☺️
I'm a 60 year old woman I live in a small town in Missouri called Grove springs one word and I love watching your shows and I love your accent thank you
@@sherrybowman6212 have you seen the show Outlander? It’s on Netflix and is a fantastically acted, wonderfully written show. Filmed in Scotland- I highly recommend it.
Im a doctor…I love this channel. Its a fact that health is entirely based on how often movement can occur…In both people and animals. You do an excellent job restoring the overall health of cattle. Thumbs up every viddy! Keep it up! 👏🏽 🥰
I'm 62, currently living in North Carolina, USA, and I write YA fairy-tale retellings. I love animals and fixing things, so watching you help these cows is satisfying. Thank you for doing what you do! I visited Scotland around 30 years ago, while my husband was stationed at RAF Lakenheath--a treasured memory!
@@Brimmy21 My neighbors' 3 children watch youtube videos. As long as they have parental oversight and guidance I don't see a problem with a kid being on TH-cam. There are other sites that I would not want them to be on. This one is OK in my opinion.
I'm Heather, from West Virginia! I am a correctional officer in a Federal Female Prison! I live on a sheep farm with a hand full of cows! Your channel was recommended to me on here around a year and a half to 2 years ago and I have been hooked ever since!
I'm Vivienne, I'll be 57 in July, and I live in Prescott, Arizona. I have a boring job in a cafe. This channel showed up in TH-cam's recommended list a few months ago, and I've been hooked ever since! Nice to see Craig trimming a hoof, hope to see him do more.
I am a 65 year old retired teacher originally from South Dakota, USA. My name is Kathy Weaver. My husband and I moved to San Antonio, Texas three years ago to help our daughter by taking her two boys two and from school. I also let her dogs out at noon. I grew up on a dairy farm. We milked 28 Brown Swiss. They are incredibly gentle cattle. I watch you because I am awed by your expertise and love seeing them walk without limping out of the crush. My husband was diagnosed with three glioblastoma brain tumors last July. He is on hospice at home now and it does my soul good to see problems get fixed. Thank you Graeme for bringing The Hoof GP to the world. Your accent is so endearing and your music is the best!
I'm Lea, I'm 55 years old, I live in Tennessee and I'm a retired contractor. I love watching your videos! I love the scenery and the animals and learning about your trade.
Bleeding means good blood supply to the area. The blood flow helps carry pathogens away from the site and healing can begin basically immediately! A little veterinary wound care physiology for you! Great job Graeme!!!
they take about half a litre of blood from human blood donors and most people feel no ill effects. now imagine how much blood there is in a cow and just how much of it she'd need to lose to be in any actual danger.
I'm 60 and live in Huntsville Alabama. I am a project admin for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It's fascinating to watch how you trim hooves. I never really thought about it as being something that needs doing. My interests vary greatly and this definitely one of them. Thank you for providing this invaluable service. I'm sure the code (and farmers) truly appreciate it.
I'm Lisa and I live in East Texas in the US. I'm 54, and I'm a middle school Maths teacher. Your videos are great, Graeme. I watch daily and learn so much. You are saving the cows. Bravo!!
I'm 25, I'm a student in Michigan, USA--West MI, lots of dairies and beef herds--and I have never met a cow but after watching 5-6 of these videos in a row I'm crying over all of them. I love these ladies. They are good girls. Also I had a panic attack an hour ago and watching the care and expertise going into your treatment of these girls is making me feel so so so much better.
OK here goes ... 52years old, northern New Jersey in the US, Instrumentation technician for a water utility. I stumbled across the channel about a year ago and haven't missed an episode yet.
I’m Ashley, I live in IL in the USA. I’m a costume designer (historic, character, and theater) as well as a seamstress. I’m here because I like educational programs of all kinds, I like to know how things (everything really) works. I’m also one of those people who is a little bit too fascinated by gross stuff, but I prefer to observe the workings of someone who is at a high skill level in their field and not just doing gross stuff on film for views.
I live in Kentucky. I'm a 59 year old I'm disabled I'm in a wheelchair. I grew up on a big big farm even still helped my parents with the farm until they passed away. Then I took it over until I got hurt on the farm and I miss it so much but love watching you and your brother law's you all have it in your heart's to help these cow's and bull's. Thank all of you for these clips you do i enjoy them
I'm Jimmy, a 21years-old student learning about husbandry from Taiwan. Lameness is primary disease in Taiwan, so I try to get some knowledge from your video.
I'm a 55-year-old building contractor, living in California USA. I love your channel because you always seem so happy in life, work and with your family. I like that there are no politics, or negativity and you always have a positive outlook. The fact that you help other "living beings" live a better life is the cherry on top of the proverbial cake for me.
I’m 62, a western Canadian artist and art instructor who’s specialty is painting and drawing horses, and sometimes I paint cows. Who knew that cows regularly get their feet trimmed!? I find it very calming watching you work especially when you wield your sharp knife with such precision, carving back those claws. You are a master of your craft something I highly respect. Thank you for your authenticity!
I’m 43 and my 11-yr-old and I enjoy these videos before sleep. We’re in Missouri, in the middle of the USA, and I grew up on 800 acres, with Angus and one Guernsey milk cow, sweet Bonnie😊 Thank you for thoughtful, helpful content!
My name is Evi, I'm 21 and just passed the veterinary assistant training. So now I am a fully trained vet assistant. I live in the Netherlands. And I love watching your videos and learning about cows feet.
My name is Jennifer and I live in Los Angeles California. I’m 60 years old and adore you and your videos because you are living what you love; You are living your truth. Your infectious joy for your work and love for your family is inspiring. I’m currently dealing with a nerve condition called CRPS and can’t walk at the moment. This condition has taken so many things from me. At times I find myself so sad. But your videos bring me such joy and they lift my spirits so much. Thank you for that Graeme. Truly.
Oh love...so sorry to hear this. I have chronic pain as well but I hear CRPS is supposed to be pretty much the worst chronic pain problem. Sending you strength and healing energy. Chronic migraines are currently stealing my life and trapping me indoors. It's miserable. I can't say I understand because I don't share your condition, but I do have empathy for what you must be going through. Gentle hugs.
I can sympathise. I have Fibromyalgia and the older I get the more I struggle. I feel like I'm constantly grieving yet another thing I can no longer do. It's so hard, I really hope you can still find some joy in life, and maybe one day things will be better x
I’m 16 from Wollongong, Australia and well I work in fast food but have always adored animals. I’ve left school and I’m currently pursing animal care and I’m getting a certification at TAFE. I just love how much he cares for the cows and well I’m hoping I can do something similar, not hoof trimming but I want to do wildlife rehabilitation. I’m also currently battling my depression and your videos are just really uplifting I like to think. So thanks 🩵
basically the same situation lmao I'm 16, from aus, always adored animals. Left school to do TAFE animal care and my goal is wildlife rehab. And also battling depression. These vids are very satisfying and I'm always happy to see farm animals treated well
I am a 72 year old gal living in Colorado. Previously I lived in Southern California most of my life. I spent 40 years working as a Physical Therapist. I have spinal problems now, and often cannot sleep due to pain. Sometimes I will watch your videos for several hours, then get back to sleep. They somehow help me to relax. I love your Scottish accent and seeing the Scottish countryside. I enjoy the whole concept of gait analysis being applied to cows.
I'm María, I live in Iceland, i'm unable to work so disabled and I love watching videos of people making live easy for animals, and your jollyness always makes my day a little better.
I'm Ukrainian, 29 and work as content manager at the marketplace. I watch your videos coz the way you breathe your life makes me happy. It's nice to see someone, who just enjoys what he is doing with his life. Absolute pleasure to see happy person =) thank you for all your knowledge and hard work
I 'joined the herd' too love watching a man who loves to work, loves his family, loves his wife. What a breath of fresh air in human kind. I have stopped watching American TV, it is all negative. Thank you for sharing your life with me and the world. I never knew your career existed. I am grateful for you. Healing and helping others is God's work. And that includes animals. Bravo. I love your channel. May God continue to bless you and your family.
I’m 38 live in Ontario Canada. I’m a stay at home mom of twins that are 6 months old. I was born and raised on a beef farm in Quebec my father raised black angus cows. I like your programs because I can learn to help the cows when needed at the family farm.
I'm 60, in Texas, USA. My grandparents had a farm in NW Oklahoma and my mom took me there regularly as a child. I loved going down to the cow barn to feed them cow cakes. Their tongues felt like slimy sandpaper 🤣 I found this channel by accident but I get a lot of pleasure seeing all the good work you do. I teach 4th grade, btw.
Hello Graeme, I'm almost 20 from the Midwest part of the US. Shortly after you started this channel a few years ago, one of your videos was recommended to me. While I have grown up around agriculture all my life, I never lived on a farm, so hoof trimming was intriguing. Now some time later, I have found myself returning to your channel because I have entered the field of agriculture as my career. You have been an inspiration to me because no job is too small to be overlooked... especially in this field. So thank you ❤️
I'm Lilli, 16 years old, I'm a student and I'm going to graduate in two weeks. I'm from the south of Germany, Munich. After school I'm going to become a vets nurse. I just love animals and really like the english language. I love to see how people can help the animals to feel better :)
I’m the mother of a son who is a welder. Through him I have realized these job that he does, you do ((your brother does)and many other jobs people do everyday are art forms and are creative outlets and I find that inspiring.
I'm 85, female, living in California. When I was much younger, I had a dozen ponies in Wisconsin and I did the hoof trimming; also had a saddle horse, but not strong enough to trim her hooves. Looking back, I shudder at my lack of knowledge. Fortunately, I don't think I did any damage. None of them ever turned up lame. The ponies and my horse were one of the best parts of my life, second only to my daughter. I've learned so much watching your videos.
I’m Daniel. I’m a 43 year old university professor in Shiga, Japan. My wife and I discovered your videos a few months ago and love them! We’re hoping to visit Scotland after the pandemic is over.
I am simply amazed with the variety of people's life stories and their wholesome energy here, in the comment section. 🤗 Also, your positive attitude and playful editing is helping me to claw my way back from depression I developed after loosing my Dad 2 years ago. It would be an honor to be considered as a part of this Herd - thank you, Hoof GP Team - for making this world better, one cow at a time. 🐄 I'm 41, female, service coordinator for satellite communication company in Poland. 🇵🇱
I’m Beth and I’m a retired elementary school teacher having taught 32 years. I am 60 years old and I live in Texas. I enjoy watching you help cows from going lame or help the lame feel more comfortable. I think your work is very important as well as interesting. It shows you really care for the animals.
I am 51 years old, I am a CMT/ Staffing coordinator at Senath Healthcare. I seen one of your videos and was instantly impressed by how you take care of the cows. I live in Arbyrd, MO. Thank you for everything you do to help the cows.
Hi from Florida, USA. I was a university professor of psychology for 30 years. I have stage 4B cancer at 72 years old. I enjoy watching you work. I've never seen anything like it. Thank you for what you do for the dear cows.
That is a lot to cope with, I'm glad these videos are a positive for you. Take care
God bless you and help you feel better!!! I'm praying for you!❤💐🥰 LA 🔮🦄🌈🧩
Many blessings to you and to your family . May you find comfort and peace on your journey. Thoughts are with you.
Prayers and blessing to you and asking a miracle for you. 2011 i was diagnosed with stage 3 pancreatic and common bile duct cancers, given 6 months. A 2% survival was all. I am one of the 2. It is a real blessing and miracle to survive this. I pray He will give you grace and survival. We are only 6 years apart.❤💫💫💫❣
I am a 49 y/o retired US Army officer who spent over a decade as a Ranger, doing what Rangers do. I cowboyed all through my youth and lived on a working ranch with over 500 head of cattle. I was blown up in 2008 and spent a little over 6 months in a coma. I spend my time now doing rehab and adoring my wife who has been by my side every single day since I was medically evacuated out of theater. Thank you for what you do, caring for animals.
🙏🏻💗🙏🏻
God bless, brother! And thank you for your service.
Thanks for your service
Thank you for your service!
Thank you for your service
Please tell me someone else read "YELLOW, MUSHY COW'S HOOF SLICED OFF!"
and said to themselves, oh, that sounds like a good one? I so don't want to be the only one who thought that.
I did too lol
Of course I bloody did 😁😁😁😁😁
Guilty as charged😁👍
Yeppers I thought that also.
Yep
I am a 50yr old married mom of three. Been married to my high-school sweetheart for 33 yrs this past January. I've pretty much always been a "housewife" raising the kids and doing the thing that housewives and mom's do. I've never had cows but I've had other farm animals for most of my life. My main focus was breeding chickens but quality birds, not just mutt birds, lol. That came to a screaching hault in July of 2019, when my life changed forever. My first born child, my son, died in a tragic drowning accident. Since then, finding any sort of joy has been very VERY difficult. I've survived Cancer, Diabetes, and all sorts of life problems and illnesses, but losing him isn't something I can survive...it's something that I'm forced to live with. There's not a choice and as someone who has always been the one to try and "fix" things, it's incredibly painful that I can't fix this. I don't know how I stumbled across your channel but I'm glad I did. It gives me a respite or a sort of light that helps me through the daily grief. I have what's called "complicated grief", meaning I can't, even five years later, face the fact that my son is gone forever. It's really hard and so utterly devastating but I'm grateful for you, your channel, and the absolute incredible beauty of your homeland. If I were a wealthy woman, I'd move my whole family there. Thank you for all that you do. As I've said before, you're putting smiles on faces all across the world just being yourself and sharing what you do for a living. I would LOVE to meet you one day and give you a great big Tennessean hug! lol Here's where we say "y'all" and "howdy" and call people honey and sweetie pie. Anyway, that's me in a nutshell. If not for my husband, my other two children, and people like you, I'd have given up on life five years ago. So truly, THANK YOU GRAHAM!
I'm 28 years old I am a full time home maker with three toddlers. I live in the USA and I love watch your videos because they are relaxing and I enjoy watch animals(and humans) get the help they need.
“I don’t care what it looks like on camera”. That’s a man with some real integrity. Good on you brother.
I’m almost 78, staying on the farm in northwest Missouri, USA, which has been in my family since 1860. Found your channel while researching the raising of cattle. Lots of info - thanks !!
How wonderful. Thank you for being there where generations of your family have been. 🙏💕
that is pretty awesome man, staying on the same land since 1870.
who did they steal it from? lol
@@flat_life750 It was the government that stole it from the people residing there. I am a descendant.
@@flat_life750 Just shut up with that absolute nonsense.
Graham, I’ll be 80 next month, am a retired USAF communications officer with over 50 years service to the DoD. I live in Northern Virginia and I have been watching your channel for several years now and have really enjoyed the quiet way you treat the animals. You are always kind and knowledgeable in your craft and your channel has gotten me through some tough times. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you and your dedication. Thank you.
I'm a 19 y/o med student from South Africa. These videos make me feel extremely satisfied and remind me why I want to help people, like you help the cattle.
Hi Graeme! I am currently a 20 year-old civil engineering student in the West Midlands. I have been watching your videos as a form of therapeutic procrastination when I should really be studying 😂
It's so cool to see so many people from different walks of life coming together to watch these videos to calm ourselves down after a long and busy day. I love reading these comments!
I watch them to relax me before I fall asleep!! 😂
I just wanted to add, what you do is amazing helping animals, but you also help me too, my son died and I always watch tour channel in bed so it’s the last thing to think of before sleeping because I suffer with flashbacks of my sons passing that this calms me and distracts me it’s now 5.30 am uk time and I’ve woken up so here I am again. Thanks for everything you do, you don’t just help the cows you help humans too. God bless 😊
I lost my son too. Sounds like you and I are here for a common reason. I know what this pain is like and I'm so deeply sorry that you know it too.
I’m Jennifer, 50y/o from the USA. I teach high school kids with special needs. I love animals, always have- and love that you have such a passion for caring for them. It’s much like my students.
So sorry for your loss. Look into EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) it might help what you're going through.
I am a 61 year old disabled lady who makes polymer clay dragons. I've done all kinds of jobs including being a zoo keeper. I find these videos relaxing and help manage my stress.
Thank you for your service! I pray you are doing well mentally and physically. Love from Marshall, Michigan ❤
Good job at what your doing!
I’m 12 I’m from Scotland and I like watching animals being helped through pain and it’s kinda satisfying
Nearly 16 and I'm from Scotland and I agree with you.
41 from California, USA and you said it perfectly. I 100% agree 🐄
Your comment speaks for you and your upbringing. Compassion is so important in life.
...i may or may not have an issue with dermatology videos (like blackheads, cysts, and whiteheads) and it seems to have spread to cow hooves.
Currently going through the comments and it’s heartwarming to see how this channel brings all kinds of people from different backgrounds together. ❤️ I’m 26, from Montreal, Canada 🍁 currently battling depression and I just find this content very calming and satisfying! Thanks for sharing your work with us, you’re not only helping these cows but you’re also helping humans too 🙏🏼
All the best to you from Germany 🍀
Hoping you find your way through the depression, as I have also suffered from depression. I'm 62 from the US. It can be an ongoing battle, but I'm sure you'll come out on the other side and use your experience to move forward and find satisfation in life. And yes, the content of these videos is calming and satisfying. If an injured cow can find relief and healing, so can we
Okay me too
I hope you are doing better ❤
Hello from (very) Northern California, age 68.
I’m Gabe, 17 and I graduated high school yesterday with my final exams in one weeks time. I got recommended one of your videos out of the blue and have loved every single one. It’s such a niche video topic you’ve found yourself an audience for its great.
Congratulations on graduating brother. Seems like yesterday for me and that was 1982!😭 May the Lord bless you and protect you in your life and your future and life's challenges that lie ahead with His will and guidance amen. God luck and don't forget to put the Lord first HE will definitely 100%. Never forget to put us 1st in everything we do in life. God bless
Uppa schoolies😉
Great job!
How’d ur finals go

I am a 37 year old "retired" registered veterinary technician living in Ontario, Canada. I worked in a small animal practice for 15 years before leaving the profession last fall. Due to the death of my husband 5 years ago, I have recently been diagnosed with Anxiety and PTSD. I have trouble falling asleep sometimes, and I find watching your videos is so calming and helps me drift off into a calm, cow induced sleep. Thank you for being you! In a profession (and really, a world) that is riddled with burnout and compassion fatigue, it is so refreshing and heart warming to see someone still truly love what they do! Thank you for all you do. For the cows, and for us, the herd. ❤️
I can so relate! I actually checked myself into the funny farm for a week due to severe anxiety. That was years ago, and I have since learned to cope much better. I am so sorry for the loss of your husband.
Hi 👋 my name is Anna. Originally from Colorado but now living in South Carolina! I’d love to work w you and Craig 😊
I'm sorry hon. My heart goes out to you.
I'm reminded of a country song. Don't know the name. Something about walking thru hell. "Keep walking before the devil knows you're there."
Since covid started I've struggled with my anger. Not at home, but work. I have no patience. Like a rubber band stretched soo tight it's about to to snap.
Never give up. There is still beauty in the world. You're just one example.
Hello from Montreal 😊☃️
I too can relate as I retired from school teaching before the proper age but in time for a heart attack followed by heart failure, a permanent condition, plus chronic pain from herpes zoster for years which keeps me in bed where I am and unable to sleep. So, like you, I watch the hoof doctor and marvel at his skill and appreciate his company in the middle of a winter's night. Hang in there, Kim.
Diagnosed with severe depression, anxiety, and ptsd, I am alive.
Your videos help fill my thoughts with something other than the mess I am in. Thank you. Sorry for not being comfortable enough to say more. I appreciate your care and attention you give towards the animals you treat. I also appreciate the lessons you teach about the biology and techniques you use. Both your older videos and current ones do a wonderful job teaching to multiple demographics and the language and delivery you use is absolutely impeccable. The lessons are well structured and still always put the animals in your stewardship first. Sometimes I learn something new. Sometimes I get to apply what I have learnt in other videos and see if I can follow along your care choices.
You do a wonderful thing.Keep it up. Tell Craig that he's doing bloody fantastic as well.
Mark, hang in there - been there, done that, and you will see the rainbow at the end of the storm. Trust me! May Father God, His Son, Jesus Christ, our Savior, and the Holy Spirit work to and through you to heal you completely from the "mind games" the evil ones play for your soul! You were made in the image of God and are His child - never forget you are NOT alone - EVER!
I feel you . I suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder, watching these videos help me sleep and allow me to replace unhealthy and bad thoughts and I’m able to remain calm
Thats an accomplishment!🎉❤
Myself i have, BPD, anxiety, depression,PNES, Cptsd and im on the autism spectrum.
So ive been there friend. Hang in there!🥰
I’m a 40 year old shipping agent working in New Orleans, getting oceangoing vessels in and out the Mississippi River. I discovered this channel a couple of weeks ago. I’m not sure why but there’s something strangely satisfying about watching you work on cows.

There was a house in New Orleans…. They call the riiiiising sun. Sorry whenever I hear New Orleans I think of that song lol
I’m 57 and retired for New York subway as a car inspector. I love watching you guys taking care of those cows and bulls.

I have seen other people do what you do and you guys are awesome. Right now I reside in Philadelphia. I would love to learn on how to make the cow healthier.

I'm 48 and live in Sumner, Iowa. I grew up on a dairy farm. I remember the hoof trimmer coming to our house to trim the cows. It is still interesting after all these years. And I do not agree with the people who say, " If you have seen one cow, you have seen them all." They are all different to me. I love to watch you work.😂
I’m a 51 year old Registered Nurse in Texas. I grew up near my grandparents and uncle’s dairy. I’m not sure how I came upon your channel but I enjoy watching the work you do and I have tremendous respect for the care and compassion you demonstrate. I wish more people understood how much time and money farmers, ranchers, and dairymen invest in their livestock.
I'm a 75-years-old woman in the USA, not far from New York City, and I've been a radio engineer, a radio deejay, a webpage designer, and a few other odd (very odd) jobs. I like watching the way you work with the animals - you're so gentle and kind with them, they know you're not there to hurt them. And I like seeing the beautiful scenic countryside you drive through. My scenery isn't nearly as scenic as yours. And I love listening to your accent!
I’m a Registered Nurse and Deputy Director of Nursing Services. I always wanted to be a Vet. I’m 59 and live in Australia. Wounds interest me and I love watching you work and explain everything single step in the hoof trimming process. I love that you’re all kind to the animals. I enjoy seeing them walk away from your trims, much better than they were before the trim. It’s also heart warming to see how very passionate you are about the work that you do!
I would love to get in contact with you I have so many questions ! I’m trying to take a path in the medical field in America idk how much different it is but I still would like to listen to your thoughts. TIA

Hi Hoof GP fam! My name is Grace I’m 49 and a high school Biology teacher in Los Angeles. I found your channel after following Dr. Pimple Popper (because puss and abscess are fascinating for some reason). When you came up on my feed my life got better! I grew up with horses and married a man born in Scotland. Between my affinity for your beautiful country, farm life, fathers that adore their wives and kids, and gross abscesses, your channel is my happy place. It is a joy to support your channel.
I know right Grace you almost feel like you've won something every time you get a notification for a Hoof GP Video lol.
I am the department head of agriculture at a farm store, watching your videos has really helped increase my knowledge of cow comfort and hoof related products. Live in Michigan and I am 37. Thanks for all you do for our 4 legged friends!
I can’t believe that as I was scrolling down to see what others had to say I saw my sisters name and the best part is I know my brother follows you also. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Anyway, I’m 64 and on disability, but before that I was a High School Teacher for 15 years and I absolutely loved my students and would much rather be in the classroom with them. Of course the best part is watching you guys take such good care of the girls and the occasional big boy!!!!

I'm 19 as well, same as you i got recommended them randomly and Im glad i did cause this is one of the few farm channels i love, my favorite channel is Weedem and Reap
@@princess_thanos i love that channel to
Found your channel about two years ago when I was recovering from overwork and depression. Helped me focus on something else and relax. Been here ever since ❤
Love from a 50 year old digital communications strategist in Sweden.
I'm 57, been disabled over 10 yrs. I'm in Central Texas in the U.S. I never knew cows & bulls needed their hooves trimmed until I came across one of your videos. This is so fascinating.
I am in West Texas and didn't know this either!
Another central Texan here! I have no idea how these videos popped up on my feed but I’m addicted now
Not on your continent. But me too Teresa - we know about farriers and my friend with llamas and alpacas have their feet checked but I'd never considered cows need it. I found channel 6 months ago, and have been fascinated ever since. Take care.
According to one of his other videos which I was watching the other day, one of the reasons that the cows have so many hoof problems and they have to really stay on top of them, is because the environment there is so much wetter than say Texas or most anywhere in the US. He said that wetter environment led to a lot more hoof problems than you would have in a dry environment. Which could be why I’ve lived in Texas all my life I’ve never heard of pasture cattle (or free-roaming cattle) having this much trouble with their hooves. I can understand the high maintenance on the dairy cattle.
@Teresaparrish me neither
I’m a 37 yo massage therapist from New Jersey. I started watching during lockdown last year because I like animals far more than I like most people. The drone footage is also amazing.
I'll be turning 28 soon enough and I'm an automation engineer in Germany. I somehow got you in my recommended one day and couldn't stop watching ever since that happened. I grew up on a farm so it really makes me happy and feel like home listening to how much you care about the well-being of each of the cows.
16:27 I live in Ohio USA. I am 80 years old woman. Watching your videos remind me of growing up on a farm and the care you give your animals. My father cared also so it is good to see. I like the relationship you have with your brothers-in- law. Using a block is of course new to me. My father cared for the animals himself except in times of injuries or illness. That’s when you could depend on the other farmers. When I look back, they were all good people.
I’m a 45 year old attorney with my own firm in California. I ran across your channel a while ago (I think there were only 10K of us back then) and I’ve stuck around because I love the enthusiasm, energy, and sheer joy you express in everything you do. I have no idea if this carries into every part of your life, but just watching the part you share with us brings joy to me.
What a nice, thought out, wholesome comment! 👏 more of this across socials please!
I'm Diego, I'm 25, watching for a year or so already! I'm from Sao Paulo, Brazil and have absolutely no connection to cattle or anything, but the vibes on this channel are so incredible and so fun to watch and see everything. I'm that kind of "backseat" watcher, that will just go and say "ah, that looks like a white line fracture, or that is definitely covered in digital dermatitis", love the channel, and love how the TH-cam algorithm took me all the way here!
Laura , 56 I’m a Nurse in Arkansas , and I love watching the hoofs being trimmed and the bad ones heal!!
I’m a 35 year old internal medicine doctor living in the US!
Love your channel and the work you do for these lovely animals. ❤
I'm a stay at home mom of three, 35 years old, live in Turkey and I'm dreaming of having a small farm on a self sufficient level. Love watching your videos on how to take care of the cows feet. I grew up in a farming environment with both pigs, horses, cows, goats, cheeps, hens, cats and dogs. Used to be a caretaker before the kids arrived and know that happy feet means happy life 😁
Sanna, are cheeps also called chickens? Just wondering about the different names for animals in different parts of the world.
@@alyssasabrae7943 chickens and sheeps are not the same thing. They are called chickens before they are named hen or rooster. Sheep are the animals you usually have for their wool, meat or/and milk. I hope this gave you the answer you were looking for 🤔☺️
@@sannalarsson343 I saw cheeps, not sheeps. Sorry about that.
I'm 16 from Wisconsin and seeing happy cows, makes my little dairy heart happy
I'm a 60 year old woman I live in a small town in Missouri called Grove springs one word and I love watching your shows and I love your accent thank you
Ayeeee, Wisconsin!!
I’m a Wisconsinite too. Yay happy dairy cows. 🐄
@@sherrybowman6212 have you seen the show Outlander? It’s on Netflix and is a fantastically acted, wonderfully written show. Filmed in Scotland- I highly recommend it.
Sconnie here too!
Im a doctor…I love this channel. Its a fact that health is entirely based on how often movement can occur…In both people and animals. You do an excellent job restoring the overall health of cattle. Thumbs up every viddy! Keep it up! 👏🏽 🥰
I'm 62, currently living in North Carolina, USA, and I write YA fairy-tale retellings. I love animals and fixing things, so watching you help these cows is satisfying. Thank you for doing what you do! I visited Scotland around 30 years ago, while my husband was stationed at RAF Lakenheath--a treasured memory!
Im Cali, im 10, i like watching becuase it helps me know that animals are getting the help they need
you are far too young to be on youtube little one
@@Brimmy21 tell that to my parents
@@caliwalidoodle shut up alot of people on this app are underage like me but no nedd to be cheeky
@@Brimmy21 My neighbors' 3 children watch youtube videos. As long as they have parental oversight and guidance I don't see a problem with a kid being on TH-cam. There are other sites that I would not want them to be on. This one is OK in my opinion.
@@rwatts2155 yeah ok but like it LITERALLY violates the TOS u have to be 13 to have an account on youtube
I'm Heather, from West Virginia! I am a correctional officer in a Federal Female Prison! I live on a sheep farm with a hand full of cows! Your channel was recommended to me on here around a year and a half to 2 years ago and I have been hooked ever since!
Alderson? My brother was a federal probation officer who was there frequently. Have a place on the river.
I'm Vivienne, I'll be 57 in July, and I live in Prescott, Arizona. I have a boring job in a cafe. This channel showed up in TH-cam's recommended list a few months ago, and I've been hooked ever since! Nice to see Craig trimming a hoof, hope to see him do more.
I am a 65 year old retired teacher originally from South Dakota, USA. My name is Kathy Weaver. My husband and I moved to San Antonio, Texas three years ago to help our daughter by taking her two boys two and from school. I also let her dogs out at noon. I grew up on a dairy farm. We milked 28 Brown Swiss. They are incredibly gentle cattle. I watch you because I am awed by your expertise and love seeing them walk without limping out of the crush. My husband was diagnosed with three glioblastoma brain tumors last July. He is on hospice at home now and it does my soul good to see problems get fixed. Thank you Graeme for bringing The Hoof GP to the world. Your accent is so endearing and your music is the best!
I'm Lea, I'm 55 years old, I live in Tennessee and I'm a retired contractor. I love watching your videos! I love the scenery and the animals and learning about your trade.
Bleeding means good blood supply to the area. The blood flow helps carry pathogens away from the site and healing can begin basically immediately! A little veterinary wound care physiology for you! Great job Graeme!!!
they take about half a litre of blood from human blood donors and most people feel no ill effects.
now imagine how much blood there is in a cow and just how much of it she'd need to lose to be in any actual danger.
I'm 60 and live in Huntsville Alabama. I am a project admin for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It's fascinating to watch how you trim hooves. I never really thought about it as being something that needs doing. My interests vary greatly and this definitely one of them. Thank you for providing this invaluable service. I'm sure the code (and farmers) truly appreciate it.
I'm Lisa and I live in East Texas in the US. I'm 54, and I'm a middle school Maths teacher.
Your videos are great, Graeme. I watch daily and learn so much. You are saving the cows. Bravo!!
I'm 25, I'm a student in Michigan, USA--West MI, lots of dairies and beef herds--and I have never met a cow but after watching 5-6 of these videos in a row I'm crying over all of them. I love these ladies. They are good girls. Also I had a panic attack an hour ago and watching the care and expertise going into your treatment of these girls is making me feel so so so much better.
OK here goes ... 52years old, northern New Jersey in the US, Instrumentation technician for a water utility. I stumbled across the channel about a year ago and haven't missed an episode yet.
I’m Ashley, I live in IL in the USA. I’m a costume designer (historic, character, and theater) as well as a seamstress. I’m here because I like educational programs of all kinds, I like to know how things (everything really) works. I’m also one of those people who is a little bit too fascinated by gross stuff, but I prefer to observe the workings of someone who is at a high skill level in their field and not just doing gross stuff on film for views.
I live in Kentucky. I'm a 59 year old I'm disabled I'm in a wheelchair. I grew up on a big big farm even still helped my parents with the farm until they passed away. Then I took it over until I got hurt on the farm and I miss it so much but love watching you and your brother law's you all have it in your heart's to help these cow's and bull's. Thank all of you for these clips you do i enjoy them
I'm Jimmy, a 21years-old student learning about husbandry from Taiwan. Lameness is primary disease in Taiwan, so I try to get some knowledge from your video.
Jimmy is a great name
I'm a 55-year-old building contractor, living in California USA. I love your channel because you always seem so happy in life, work and with your family. I like that there are no politics, or negativity and you always have a positive outlook. The fact that you help other "living beings" live a better life is the cherry on top of the proverbial cake for me.
I’m 62, a western Canadian artist and art instructor who’s specialty is painting and drawing horses, and sometimes I paint cows. Who knew that cows regularly get their feet trimmed!? I find it very calming watching you work especially when you wield your sharp knife with such precision, carving back those claws. You are a master of your craft something I highly respect. Thank you for your authenticity!
Do you have a website or page where I can see your work? I recently was given a horse and I would love to look into getting a painting done of him 😍
I’m 43 and my 11-yr-old and I enjoy these videos before sleep. We’re in Missouri, in the middle of the USA, and I grew up on 800 acres, with Angus and one Guernsey milk cow, sweet Bonnie😊
Thank you for thoughtful, helpful content!
Hello Fellow Missourian! This really is a great place to live!

I'm Bylinda, 69 years old and I work in a loan office.
Congratulations Evi !! Job well done!
My name is Jennifer and I live in Los Angeles California. I’m 60 years old and adore you and your videos because you are living what you love; You are living your truth. Your infectious joy for your work and love for your family is inspiring. I’m currently dealing with a nerve condition called CRPS and can’t walk at the moment. This condition has taken so many things from me. At times I find myself so sad. But your videos bring me such joy and they lift my spirits so much. Thank you for that Graeme. Truly.
Sending prayers to you. 🙏🙏🙏💜
Oh love...so sorry to hear this. I have chronic pain as well but I hear CRPS is supposed to be pretty much the worst chronic pain problem. Sending you strength and healing energy. Chronic migraines are currently stealing my life and trapping me indoors. It's miserable. I can't say I understand because I don't share your condition, but I do have empathy for what you must be going through. Gentle hugs.
I can sympathise. I have Fibromyalgia and the older I get the more I struggle. I feel like I'm constantly grieving yet another thing I can no longer do. It's so hard, I really hope you can still find some joy in life, and maybe one day things will be better x
Hang in there
I’m 16 from Wollongong, Australia and well I work in fast food but have always adored animals. I’ve left school and I’m currently pursing animal care and I’m getting a certification at TAFE. I just love how much he cares for the cows and well I’m hoping I can do something similar, not hoof trimming but I want to do wildlife rehabilitation. I’m also currently battling my depression and your videos are just really uplifting I like to think. So thanks 🩵
yay a fellow aussie
basically the same situation lmao I'm 16, from aus, always adored animals. Left school to do TAFE animal care and my goal is wildlife rehab. And also battling depression. These vids are very satisfying and I'm always happy to see farm animals treated well
❤❤❤
😂🎉your videos really help with my depression thanks!😊
@@noddybrown3074 okay. I give up. What's the "M" word?
I am a 72 year old gal living in Colorado. Previously I lived in Southern California most of my life. I spent 40 years working as a Physical Therapist. I have spinal problems now, and often cannot sleep due to pain. Sometimes I will watch your videos for several hours, then get back to sleep. They somehow help me to relax. I love your Scottish accent and seeing the Scottish countryside. I enjoy the whole concept of gait analysis being applied to cows.
I'm María, I live in Iceland, i'm unable to work so disabled and I love watching videos of people making live easy for animals, and your jollyness always makes my day a little better.
I'm Ukrainian, 29 and work as content manager at the marketplace. I watch your videos coz the way you breathe your life makes me happy. It's nice to see someone, who just enjoys what he is doing with his life. Absolute pleasure to see happy person =) thank you for all your knowledge and hard work
I 'joined the herd' too love watching a man who loves to work, loves his family, loves his wife. What a breath of fresh air in human kind. I have stopped watching American TV, it is all negative. Thank you for sharing your life with me and the world. I never knew your career existed. I am grateful for you. Healing and helping others is God's work. And that includes animals. Bravo. I love your channel. May God continue to bless you and your family.
Really hope you and your family are safe at the moment Elena ,sending you all my prayers xxx

I’m 38 live in Ontario Canada. I’m a stay at home mom of twins that are 6 months old. I was born and raised on a beef farm in Quebec my father raised black angus cows. I like your programs because I can learn to help the cows when needed at the family farm.
I'm 60, in Texas, USA. My grandparents had a farm in NW Oklahoma and my mom took me there regularly as a child. I loved going down to the cow barn to feed them cow cakes. Their tongues felt like slimy sandpaper 🤣 I found this channel by accident but I get a lot of pleasure seeing all the good work you do. I teach 4th grade, btw.
Hello Graeme, I'm almost 20 from the Midwest part of the US. Shortly after you started this channel a few years ago, one of your videos was recommended to me. While I have grown up around agriculture all my life, I never lived on a farm, so hoof trimming was intriguing. Now some time later, I have found myself returning to your channel because I have entered the field of agriculture as my career. You have been an inspiration to me because no job is too small to be overlooked... especially in this field. So thank you ❤️
❤❤❤😊
I'm Lilli, 16 years old, I'm a student and I'm going to graduate in two weeks. I'm from the south of Germany, Munich. After school I'm going to become a vets nurse. I just love animals and really like the english language. I love to see how people can help the animals to feel better :)
Congratulations on your graduation Lilli. I live in Minnesota. My great grandfather was from Remlingen.
😃😃😇 nice
Your English is perfect!! If you speak as well as you write, you are doing so well and I’d say quite advanced. Congratulations on your graduation 🪅🎊🎉😃
I’m the mother of a son who is a welder. Through him I have realized these job that he does, you do ((your brother does)and many other jobs people do everyday are art forms and are creative outlets and I find that inspiring.
I'm 85, female, living in California. When I was much younger, I had a dozen ponies in Wisconsin and I did the hoof trimming; also had a saddle horse, but not strong enough to trim her hooves. Looking back, I shudder at my lack of knowledge. Fortunately, I don't think I did any damage. None of them ever turned up lame. The ponies and my horse were one of the best parts of my life, second only to my daughter. I've learned so much watching your videos.
I’m Daniel. I’m a 43 year old university professor in Shiga, Japan. My wife and I discovered your videos a few months ago and love them! We’re hoping to visit Scotland after the pandemic is over.
I am simply amazed with the variety of people's life stories and their wholesome energy here, in the comment section. 🤗 Also, your positive attitude and playful editing is helping me to claw my way back from depression I developed after loosing my Dad 2 years ago.
It would be an honor to be considered as a part of this Herd - thank you, Hoof GP Team - for making this world better, one cow at a time. 🐄
