- We borrowed this donkey for a live Christmas nativity and noticed his feet were a little over due for a trim. This video is how we went about getting his feet trimmed and balanced up. He did great in the nativity set and loved all the attention. Thanks for watching! Leave a comment and let us know what you think. Check out our channel for other good farrier related videos!

Must have been something pretty clever here.
1 hoof, and 3 hooves ago.
good example
S&S Horseshoeing is it as painful as an ingrown toenail or more painful?
Leatherman ...or a thorn in your side that has finally been removed. .so to speak.
@@totallynotsatan976 it doesn't hurt
Dami _es it is as painful as it when trimming it it might hurt a tiny bit but after it will be good
Nail: falls on the floor
Dog: _Allow me to introduce myself_
@@saltyyangel yeah wtf lol
@@saltyyangel becuz of bone
I imagine it's close to a bones texture
B U T T E R M I L K he probably likes to chew on it, after nails and bones are made of the same thing
@@boing1oings actually bone is well bone nails are made from cartilage the same stuff your hair is made from.
I was impressed with how well-behaved the donkey was with his hoof up and allowing you to preform this care.
He probably was just happy to have someone help him out!
Also they can't feel pain on their hooves. Same with horses
The Guitar kept him calm
Right, you should try and clip a rabbit's nails, they're total buttheads they are
@@marcel7734 truth long sleeves are a must
I like imagining the animals after he's done with their pedicures taking cautious steps and realizing "Oh yes so much better, new feets!" ❤️
I like imagining a world without idiots. But then I read comments on TH-cam
Pp
Lol the dog must love when you give the animals pedicures.
He’s like: snack time
Wont they possibly get sick from all the dirt and feces that's most likely on the bottom of the horse's or donkey's hoof? I watched a few of these videos where the dogs grab up the hoof shavings, I wouldnt let my dog eat or play with it...
X Factor there is something called a joke you know that right?
PA Anthony There is something called a question you know that right?
X Factor I’ve literally seen my dog eat another dogs shit. Depends on their stomach I suppose. Some dogs are harty af.
X Factor or he just chucks it up and eats it again 😂
Let me guess, you borrowed this donkey from a big green fellow at the swamp far far away, am I close?
livin' right next door to the Waffle House
I can confirm. I was the land
They like to step on me
I think I saw him outside a bit ago
@Average User That'll do donkey
I think I’ve watched everything at this point during quarantine
Vang96 I feel you bro
@@rishavguha1986 f
I feel ya dood
Man I’m watching all kinds of mixed crazy weird funny shit on here lol can’t get enough of it
People who say this haven’t scratched the surface lmao
Quarantine Productivity Level:
Watching animals getting pedicure from a gentle soul ❤️
Sindhu gandikota same.
I have 14 pending assignments but who cares
exactly
Day 41 of quarantine : I've learned how to pedicure a horse, make a firearm, pilot a Cessna, remove a tumor, lead a country, cure cancer and how to be god but I still haven't finished my maths
Leiloan 🤣👍🏻
Well thats accurate
you need to watch "lawpicking lawyer". he just coming out from nowhere on my recommendation. now i'll rec it to u.
@@luthfieyudhairawan3883 lmao saaaaaame I bought a picking kit he recommended and I'm doing pretty well at picking locks at home
Leiloan huh I just learned how to fly around the universe
*nail falls on the ground*
dog: it’s free real estate.
I wanna hear the scraping and clipping sounds
Yeah, I hate when people cut out the original audio, and then dub in completely unnecessary and unrelated music.
same
I wanna hear the heavy breathing XD
I just started the video but now I don’t want to watch lmao
At least it’s not some edm stuff that’s playing
Me: I'm Bored
TH-cam: Wanna watch a Donkey get a pedicure
Yes. Yes, I do.
Right, sooo random lol but hell yeah I do😂
TH-cam’s algorithm right there.
Watch The Hoof GP, he trims cow's feet.
I didn't think it would be as intricate as it is. He makes some great saves.
You show watch cows get their hooves trimmed it oddly relaxing
I was like "Holy crap, is he taking the whole hoof off???" I can't imagine the relief on that poor donkey's stride now.. :D And the dog comes up "Hey, you umm, you gonna eat that?"
Yea, well it’s just like clipping a long toenail, the hoof base doesn’t really grow all that much, and where the hoof actually is is only a few inches below the start, so all that extra was just like a long toenail, probably felt like trying to walk normal in snowboarding boots for that donkey (look it up, the boots make you bend your knees or it makes it really uncomfortable (for good reason))
I hope you had a stern chat with the owner about their neglect of this donkey. No wonder he loved the attention from you!
His feet looked great when you got done, and donkey had to feel a LOT better. Thank you.
Really,Why do You held an animal if You don't care about him?? Poor Little donkey....
Half of these comments include the word ‘pedicure’
and the other half are about the dog
Perfect
Ranger William, I don’t see anything wrong with that, let people do what they want to do and stop complaining
Then there’s this comment about blueberry pancakes. With butter and maple syrup. Mmmmmm.
The owners of that donkey need a lesson on animal care, the poor bugger must have been uncomfortable- maybe in pain. Having hoofs like that is despicable
we helped them out
I am ignorant in the matter of horses. How animals in the wild deal with this type of situation?
If i read correctly the hoofs keep growing ussualy ending in the horse or donkey with a problem in walking and or running
@@PedroPauloAmorim In the wild they wear their hooves down through their natural activity, like how wolves keep their nails from getting long. In a captive environment horses don't get the wear and tear on their foot a wild horse does, making them have longer hooves.
That's neglect. Plain & simple.
I was expecting the little guy to start running around after getting new shoes like little kids do lol
I know! Ungrateful donkey😂😂😂
Sometimes their hooves can be a little sore. Its like getting an ingrown toenail removed, its sore for a few days then it feels 10x better. That donkey was probably having the day of his life once the soreness subsided!
@@nyckie26 good thought! The whole process was soothing to watch but yeah, he probably has to readjust his gait and everything.
Ok, I recant my ungrateful comment.😞😂
They are animals, not kids
When the hoof is deformed like that it also puts strain on the ligaments etc of the legs so when they are trimmed they are often very lame while everything readjusts. Usually you would bring them back over time and not take so much off at once.
The donkey looks like he has been taken care of in every way besides his hooves. I hope the owner can be taught and educated on how important it is to trim his hooves!
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘💍🤠
He honestly should be looking his best everyday just saying.
Edit: Thank you for the likes everyone! And for the new comments who says I’m blaming the guy in the video. You guys need better reading skills...... because I did not say that he was the owner who neglected this donkey. Have a wonderful day and be safe everyone!
My thoughts as well.
I bet you cant even clean a goldfish's bowl once a day
Jay Basil just by you saying that clearly shows you can’t even brush your damn teeth after every meal, or at least twice a day. Don’t even get me started on your hygiene either. But anyways what a legitimate comparison of a argument you got, don’t bring a kids mentality to a grown mans argument please.
he deserves to be lookin handsome everyday 🥺
Gostyn24 praca
nail: hits the floor
dog coming into frame; _please allow me to introduce myself, im a man of wealth and taste-_
🤣🤣🤣🤣
seems pretty stolen to me
A more likely reason than “borrowing a donkey for the nativity” was so that it’s feet could be helped
@@tigress63 its a conspiracy
@@tigress63 donkeys are such intelligent and gentle animals and a lot smarter than a horse. Whereas a horses “flight or fight” instinct will kick in automatically, a donkey will weigh up the situation first to see if it needs to run, so not surprised little donkey was well behaved. Probably really enjoyed the experience too!
@@tigress63 A well behaved horse or donkey doesn't take a week to acclimatize to a new environment lol. I take horses and donkeys all over the place for trail rides, shows, etc and they don't need much time at all. So the answer to 'how many animals in a strange setting will stand still like that' is most of them unless they're unhandled.
@@tigress63 you are fishy
@@tigress63 um donkeys and horses cows sheep goats. Basically herd animals are very calm naturally and They've been bred to favor that trait for literally millennia.
Can that be corrected..?
My quarantine me : Lets find out !
I dont even have a horse or any interest in any horse related pedicure, but it's weirdly satisfying to watch 😂
@@triririt7944 yes! Same for me
The dog probably has a secret stash of toenails somewhere hidden 🤭
Yeah, in their belly.
Shhhhhh
The master may find out and take the toenail stash away.
Lol
Oh god his hooves were HORRIBLE, like straight-up awful, I can't imagine how pain walking had been with those. Glad he got a trim, even if he has to go back to whoever doesn't trim his hooves after it's all said and done :(
Yeah sure I understand farrier work can be expensive but if you can't afford the upkeep don't have a horse/donkey/whatever.
This man did an excellent job. No doubt the donkey is pleased to walk properly with his trimmed hooves. Thanks for all of you involved in that job.
Imagine how envious the other donkeys where when they saw all the nice treatment he got after being picked for the Christmas thing. Next year they will all line up. 😊
Breh
Mr. Devor really, you’re going to be THAT guy in the replies
I understand mistakes in owning animals, but those hooves were no mistake. That is lack of care. That breaks my heart for this animal
Mistake? To get this long, those had to be left like that for CRAZY long time.
@@Marwington Lack of care is common in people who own Equine Species ( Donkeys Horses ECT) most ppl don't know how to take care of them and just don't have skill. So they just let their hooves get like that. But Incredible people like Farriers fix the hooves
@Jeff Holland I have no experience with donkeys. With horses though, 15 cm overgrown hooves is not something that "just happens". But maybe just donkeys have really fast-growing ones. Dunno.
@Jeff Holland Pure out and out neglect, not just lack of care. Donkey may be fed, but those hooves could have ruined his feet. That was way longer growth than just lack of care. Been around horses, mules, and donkeys all of my life, owned an Arabian, and her feet were looked at every 6 months outside routine maintenance.
@Jeff Holland being well cared is not just being fed tho. It's taking care of the general health of the animal you decided to own.
I know nothing about shoeing horses, but I love watching anyone that is skilled at their craft. Thank you for taking care of the donkey.
Now I can only imagine what the donkey is feeling after he’s done
Donkey: Wait a minute....my hooves are supposed to be flat
Probably is in pain muscle and ligament have to stretch go that he is done but still his hoofs were bad
What is amazing is that the donkey never flinched once so it must not have hurt at all! Interesting! What a good job you did for the little guy! I would have liked to see him walk around on his new feet! I hope the owner will be shamed into keeping the little guy's feet in good shape from now on!
Thank God you borrowed this little donkey, or else he might NEVER have gotten his hooves trimmed! Poor little guy! Thank you for taking such good care of him! You did a GREAT job.
No problem!
Give that donkey a carrot for being so patient!
lol
@Bergr Bthey probably aced him because from the looks of it I'm assuming he hasn't had his feet done ina while so I'm guessing he's probably not very good with his feet
Nobody:
The Dog: Yummy, h o o v e s 🤤
"What food do you give to your dog?"
"H O O V E S"
Yeah must be a farmers dog thing I'm trimming us some cows hooves and my dog comes up like nommy nommy nom
Charly Kolas, my dog would go for the whole donkey😂
Jurassicgamer lmao 😂
Lol
Donkeys have the neatest little hooves when they are cared for. Thank you for getting this one back in top shape
Poor guy he’s probably had a lot of trouble with his hoof and also probably felt pain
It’s not something the average person thinks about when it comes to taking care of animals, just how much work goes into feeding, grooming etc. it’s a full time job with one so kudos for all you do for these animals.
Poor little donkey. The owner doesn't care about it enough to get his hooves into a good shape once in a while :( I hope he enjoys this "freedom" until it grows back again
I was thinking the same thing
Owner probably doesn't know.
I’m sure this furrier would do it for free,poor donkey. What other abuse is he getting by the negligent owner. How right that this kindness at Christmas.
How would the owner NOT know that their donkey's feet looked THAT horrible? (They looked bad enough that the owner could be charged with animal cruelty/neglect in some places).
Basic care is part of ownership with ANY animal.
If one cannot properly care for the animal, they should rehome it.
Yeah, this video struck me more as "we made an excuse so we could trim the poor donkey's hooves before any further damage could happen."
This takes me back to growing up on a farm with a mule breeding program. Our dogs would sit there and watch for shavings to fly in their direction until our farrier tossed them a handful of hoof shavings.
The next morning the farm dog would have a stash of hoof trimmings on our back porch.
Those were the days.
glad it brought back memories! the good ol days
Why do they eat them?
@miss Chantelle - because they are stinky and protein. Like a bully stick
@@realsuperchanchan Probably just chew on them like bones
You didn’t search for this, but you weren’t disappointed
Your too late
What if I did?
@@poopoopants8943 get help quickly
I love how your dog always comes around to get his little treats 😊😊
Me: “man I hope the dog doesn’t eat the left over toe nails in this one”
*dog eats left over toe nails*
Ight imma head out
Lol
That is 10000% not the grossest thing I have ever seen a dog eat....
th-cam.com/video/uNfOMIm0Tu0/w-d-xo.html
They sell, like, full hooves at pet stores. It equivalent to chewing on a bone.
We all need fiber
WHAT A GREAT THING TO KNOW HOW TO DO THIS FOR ANIMALS. ITS A ART AND GREAT TALLANT. THANKS ..
my pleasure
*talent
why do y’all need to correct him??? there’s literally no reason to do so.
Talent*
*talent
i dont know how to take care of our equinine friends, his hooves sure look better now that you had borrowed him, thank you from what heart i have left,, be blessed and safe
you have a big heart too
Let’s be honest here, none of us searched for this, but we weren’t disappointed
You're completely right bro 😂
Very true 😂
Melvin Melon my guy I saw you on the carameldensen video wtf
Yup hahaha But thanks Learned about horse and donkey hooves. Cool and Awesome People that lives in Countryside 😎
What a kind little donkey!
Letting an animals hoof grow out and deform like this is animal cruelty.
Agreed. How long do donkeys go before they need trimming usually? I know horses is usually every 6-8 weeks. Also wondering if he has any deformation internally from lack of care?
Donkey hooves grow faster than horses apparently!
I have a suspicion they borrowed him just to be able to help.
red as an owner of 4 donkeys they are about the same as horses. Like horses they often need a trim every 6-8 weeks but depending on the donkey it could take a shorter or longer amount of time
@@christopher9833 I have a suspicion they borrowed him just to shoot this video
Poor little donkey, so glad you were able to help.He must be more comfortable now.
Best part of the job is being able to help the animals! very satisfying
@@maverick_vet God Bless
@@maverick_vet 💖💖💖
🙏💗🐴🐾🐎✨
How can someone neglect their animal this way? Take responsibility for their care!
Thanks for the comment. The important thing is that we were able to get him taken car of!
@@maverick_vet you got any videoes or advice about getting hind feet level and how to look at it see its leveled
David Johnston ...I would agree !
This is therapeutic to watch
I agree
@@maverick_vet it is.. I agree.. cleaning up...
It is very satisfying. Great job. 👍 Kudos to you. 😊
You didn't search for this but admit you loved it
Every time I watch one of your videos, especially if the animal hasn't been worked on in a while. I think, "god that has got to feel good after, like taking off shoes that hurt your feet after too long".
could you possibly make a video explaining hoof anatomy, and how you would generally trim a horse on the first time you meet them. I know that sounds confusing, and i know every horse is different but could you share some general techniques that you commonly use.
Piper Grets I was just wondering if there is any trust built prior to this and I agree with the hood anatomy request. I stumbled upon one of the videos and this is my 4th or 5th tonight.
Piper Grets a hoof should always be at a 45 degree angle. Typically you clean out the frog or inside of the hoof but these are so massively overgrown he had to cut them first.
I'm interested. I didn't know this was a thing as I'm sure many others that are suggested this video feels. It didn't even look "humane" at first but I understand the necessity. But like, I need you to add some biology to these videos lol
It's just like a nail, sometimes it might hurt if you cut a nail wrong but usually it feels fine.
The fact that someone thinks they “own” an animal and leave them like this is despicable
The real dumb-ass is the owner.
"Look at my new kicks I got for Christmas! They're so fresh and so clean! Watch me 4 step! Stunna!"
Of all the creatures I was ever charged with caring for, a donkey has always been one of my favorites, if not the most favorite. The amount of love and affection these creatures can demonstrate towards those who care for them is incalculable. If people were smart, they would have donkeys, instead of dogs and cats.
It is satisfying to watch this. Gives some sort of peace. Its like with this small act (compared to the size of the world) everything everywhere becomes just a littlebit better.
For me it was kinda satisfying when he was taking out the dirt from the hooves
I own horses and do their feet myself and I gotta say picking their feet is very satisfying lol.
Hoof trimmers dogs: nummy nummy
They do like it
Lol
I like how your dogs just hanging around inspecting the clippings.
free dog treats
@@maverick_vet disgusting!.
light ryuzaki dogs really love them :)
@@maverick_vet but why do they love it?
light ryuzaki hahaha dogs aren’t vegetarians😂
Donkey: yo what’s up with this dog??
Dog: don’t worry, I’m just here for your toes 😏
Donkey: WTF, where have they taken me?! 😂
Thank you for helping the donkey. I pray 🙏 you continued to visit and help him.
That little guy was sure patient and it was worth the wait!
he was patient!!
Seems like he knew he was being helped.
@@kat4770 Oh yes you know he was so relieved ❗💖
Very cute, look's similar to one of my donkeys
Being a city boy and never having witnessed farrier work, it is mighty impressive to watch this!
glad you liked it
From an email sent to friends: A person with hoof trimming skills was part of an effort to borrow a donkey, who would enact the donkeys part in helping Christ and Mary, in a Christmas play. This descendant of the original donkeys needed some hoof work. It waited, very patiently, for the care taken to fix its feet. One by one, the basic care got done.
It also reminded me that everyone has important things to contribute to life, there is no "useless" skill or person. They may cook, smile, create crops starting from neglected earth, or whatever it is, but the participation of each one of us makes the world work.
Pedicure for Donkey's Big Day
Thanks
I love that the dog comes over and sniffs around for scraps. 1000000% something my puppies would do
Watching you care for the animal brings a real sense of grace and nurture.
I am sure that these little donkey feet feel so much better now! Thanks to this talented farrier.
I think you are right! Thanks for the kind words
Thank you so much for trimming this guys feet. GREAT JOB. He needed this good trim regardless if he was going to be in the nativity scene or not.
Our pleasure! I agree
Those old Donkey feet are HARD, aren't they. You took me back in time a bit. I did this for many years. I still have a stand and an old set of Diamond nippers in a shed in KS. Ill probably never use them again, but I cant bring myself to get rid of them.
In fact, I was given them by and old man for trimming his donkeys, when I was in high school, when no one else would.
You did a really nice job. He'll be a new donkey in a couple days.
you better keep them.
Thanks
💞
Those are some expensive feet😂
I didn't know they made diamond hoof trimmers.
Learn something new everyday
Sounds like it's time to adopt a donkey!
I have horrible insomnia, and love horses. These videos put me right to sleep! Please keep making more!
Tauranga, NZ
Surprised at the lack of infection, happy you guys came along though.
Looking good. Donkeys are so cute in their winter coats.
I agree
Yes me too, I`d rather hear the sound of the work than that music. The Donkey was sure patient. Good job on the feet.
This dude is probably wondering why his several month old videos are suddenly going viral. Quarantine has entered the chat
This made me cry lol. Different feel, kinda peaceful with the guitar strumming and simple snipping
Very nice, poor Eeyore needed a little bit of love, gentleness and care. He now looks a little bit more optimistic and happy.
I can only imagine the relief he felt after that pedi.
Brother, watching you do that sends a sigh of relief all the way over here. GOD Bless you Sir!
I say that donkey was very patient will getting his pedicure !! your back must take an awful strain !! thank you for help him !! :)
He was very patient!
Hopefully the little guy relieved and God touches the heart of his owners to treat him kind and loved 🙏🏻😇. Precious little guy deserves the best 😊
Watching this videos is somehow satisfactory, is it only me??
Aggg those stone bruises or abscesses in the front hoof hurt me just the thought. Good job.
Thanks! yeah definitely not good
I was concerned with that also
I noticed the way you were feeling or doing a light probe of that area.
The poor donkey must feel so much relief! These videos are very satisfying to watch👍
Glad you like them! I should have more to come so stay tuned
This poor donkey's plight demonstrates the responsibilities we take on when we domesticate an animal. As mentioned in the video, his hooves would never have gotten that bad if he'd been out roaming in the wild. GREAT JOB! I love watching skilled people do their thing.
glad you liked it
how patient this animal was ! As if he knew he got done some good.
Bless you to help this animal and being gracious or sympathetic with the owners
i really love this comment section, everyone is happy for the donkey and thanking you for your great work.
nice video, thank you!
Farmer: "...cute little donkey..."
Doniey:"...kickkickkickkickkickkick kickkickkickkickkickkickkick...!
That donkey probably felt like a woman stepping off her high heels - relieved!
Jokes aside, great job as usual dude. You are one kind soul!
I'm so happy you took such nice care of this Donkey! I bet he felt a lot better after getting his feet pedicured.💙💚🍀❤️💛🤗
Thanks. He sure did!
the only one job that will never change,it will always be fascinating and peacefull to see an horse or donkey being finally free from that kind of pain
tnx
every action just radiates professionalism. This is a person who knows their trade, real neat to watch.
This man doing "pimp my ride" even more way better than westcoast did lmao
Me: has horses, literally had to study horse shoeing for national exams, sees and talks to farriers on a daily basis, tries to avoid horse content when away from them for sanity...
TH-cam: you should watch this channel
Me: *clicks and starts taking notes as if my exams are coming up again*
Poor baby... 🥺 I can’t imagine how uncomfortable that must have been. Thank you for doing this! It’s people like you that keep this world going with kindness. Im sure the donkey greatly appreciated this! :)
Lucky donkey. Plays in the nativity and gets his needed hooves done! Thank You!
Great job - looks so much better. He certainly stood quietly for the farrier.
The line between "Gross" and "satisfying" is extremely narrow it seams
It's more like satisfying to see something gross be fixed to look better. Unless you mean the whole process of cleaning hooves
* side-eyes a video of pulling out an ingrown hair *
Great video! The camera is up close and personal the whole time so you can see all the details of the trim. Thank you for helping this animal.
Thanks I'm glad you liked it
Everybody in these comments acting like they know all about donkey feet.
Erin Fischer I mean, who doesn’t 😂
These hooves were made for walking and that's just what they'll do.
Who are you to assume they don't? Why don't you go ask every single person here about their credentials on donkey feet lady, and then you can run your mouth. Im sorry, HOOVES*. not fucking feet 😂
Colleen Harrison I’m just sitting here laughing my butt off
Colleen Harrison you can tell by the profile picture. They dont know what they are talking about
It does my heart good to see such a caring, gentle and kind man providing comfort to this neglected animal. Thank you.
I was hoping to see hooves polished to black and sparkly since it was going to be onstage for nativity play. but it was nice to see donkey getting proper hoof care.
