Why do I keep watching this channel? I don't have cows I've never needed to have cows... yet its so interesting.
🤣🤣 same!
I think it’s the sense of accomplishment that gets relayed through the videos. Most of our jobs don’t have such a clear cut positive result most days, and we get to see that each time a cow walks better leaving the crush.
A year later..... Still don't have any inclination to own a cow. And still love watching .👍
Heck, I didn't even know that cows hooves needed trimming. Lol. I love this guy.
I KNOW.
I feel some how I have “graduated”....from blackheads, cysts, lipomas, callouses , and where I learned more than I wanted to know about toe fungus .....to watching cow manicures....
Same here!!
Wow I’m not the only one
This was recommended on the Toe Bro.
Glad to know im not the only one and wierd part is im a friggin girl😅😂😆
So true!! lol
When you come out of quarantine with zero abs zero accomplishments and 100% knowledge of cows hoofs
Lmao too funny!
Lmao....yup
100% right!
I feel this on a personal level 😂
Megan Pak , oh my goodness... you made me laugh 😂 albeit 5 months later, laughter is always good.... even delayed. Thank you 😊
I can honestly say I didn't know a single thing about cows hooves until I found this guy. You're a trooper, Graeme!
Does anyone else just love the way cows “talk”? Like their “moo” is so deep and cool!
The real thing to note, is that a channel with up close HD cow dung and a man getting peed in the face by one, is one of the more wholesome and heartwarming channels on TH-cam. XD
TH-cam at its best ❤️ it makes me want to give it a go
He got peed on right when I read this lol
Experts: Don't work with animals and children in front of a camera
Hoof GP: Hey! That's not fair.
I hope Graham never changes. His channel seems very transparent. He comes across as honest & caring.
You don't get more wholesome than farm fresh content.
Cows are considered as living gods here in India, I am thankful to you for treating these cows right and making their lives really better....... god bless you my friend!
God pisses on people all the time ...coronavirus ?
Are you allowed to drink cow's milk?
@@The_DC_Kid Yeah they're allowed to drink the milk but Hindu's aren't allowed to eat cows.
@kous
They are super skinny. Is there no grass there
5:07 "See this crack " * me looking at the cow poop*= 👁👄👁
EL- MAGNIFICO Ayo I haven’t laughed so hard in my life this CAUGHT ME OFF GAURD
😂😂😂
😂😂
TwT
@@yasha5955 👁👄👁🐄💩
He is a real hero in today's times. Why? He "burns" for his profession, he wants to explain and make transparent what and why he's doing this or that. He makes one interested in his work. Something I really miss when people trying to get apprentices. They should see his videos to give their offers more incentive. Keep it up!!! A female subscriber from Berlin! 😉
He's a hero.
Your compassion and care are refreshing in this time in our world where people only care about themselves. Thank you Graeme!!!
Who desperately wanted to wash the hoofs before doing anything else.
Yeah. I mean, I know that's mostly bone and keratin involved there, but when there's that much feces involved, you want to just hose that off.
wanted to comment exactly the same.. thank you ^^
It bothered me the entire time
Me
Me. Imagine the smell of poop when burn.
Bruh I don’t even farm or have any aspirations to become a vet yet I can’t stop watching these videos
same here mate... hahaha
Same here!
Same here 2, I just can't put the friggin fone down.
These are so satisfying, aren't they?
Don’t know why I watch these vids, as a city dweller, lol. I grew up on a farm so I guess there’s that but mostly I’m SO impressed with your skill and knowledge. You are very good at what you do.
And he loves his work and he loves animals and he is handsome with a wonderful personality... whats not to like?
I never thought that watching people work on cows foots whould be so cool
I don’t know what powers brought me to your channel, but I decided “why not” and watched a video.
I think I might be 5-7 videos in now lol, and I have subscribed.
3:11 "Quite lemony....I'm gettin' hints of oak...maybe silage..."
I'm DEAD! I love this channel!
That cracked me up too.
@@nancy9478 😂
I love your empathy and attitude with animals. You're clearly a master of your craft! Love these videos ❤
Love when you educate about the underlying problem. The calcification on that example bone was knarly.
I don’t know about you, but I keep watching because Graham is so great! He’s so personable. He gives an interesting education to a topic about which I know nothing. I love how grateful Graham is about his life, how much he loves his family, And especially how much he loves his work and knows he’s living his dream!
WELL DONE Hoof. GP👍♥️🤗
I can't thank you enough for the love you have for these precious cows and the care you give each one of them ❤️
I loved the look you got when she was walking away as if she was saying, "Nah, dude. You ain't getting me back in that thing, EVER!" I love that you care about these cattle like they belong to you.
sometimes some other cows wait nearby, for their sister to get hack I guess. And wondering if they'll be next !
Man I feel like I would need to wash the cows hoofs before doing anything to them
Edit: Y’all I understand ! Sometimes he does sometimes he doesn’t. He can’t really do it and all that jazz. I get it now.
My thoughts exactly lol
There’s no point, as soon as the cow puts its foot back down it’ll be dirty again. Though I do agree i want to wash it too, a good scrub would make it a lot easier to see what you’re looking at.
I was always wondering the same!!!
Right every time i see these videos i think the
same thing
honestly, i would go on and wash the whole bloody animal XD
5:05 i love how the camera zooms in on the poop splatting while soothing music plays
"you see this crack?"
"yup i see that crap"
This!
I noticed the crap more than ANYTHING else in this video! 🤣
The way you repair the hoofs, never seen it done that way in the states, pretty cool to see how happy the cows are afterwards. God bless 🕊💜🙏🕎
Graeme : *shares knowledge at 05:08 *
Cow: splat splat splat
😂 LOL
There's a reason I'm not a big fan of large farm animals
🤣🤣🤣
😭
Stifler -"I got peed on.. ", Graeme -"Tastes a bit lemony, with a hint of oak.." I'm dyin', man!! 😅😆😂😆😂 That sweet lady's got the BEST OF THE BEST caring for her feet, hands down, my friend! Awesome tutorial of the steps you were taking while working on that terrible twist and damaged claw. #LOVETHEHOOFGP 🐄🐮🐂💜
Hey Sherri!! I'm a big fan also! I saw your name and was like NO WAY! LOL This guy Hoof GP is awesome!
Sometimes farm work / animal care is not pretty. A few cannot be saved. Most is greatly satisfying.
He's like the Hoof Whisperer, honestly his work is so valuable and so very kind.
I love that I stumbled upon this channel many months ago. I love seeing how you help the cattle and keep them hoof healthy and happy. I really liked that you showed us what has happened with this cow's hoof. I find it extremely interesting. Hopefully you will keep her comfortable and she will have a long life.
Good on you for helping the poor girl. I hurt for them when I watch you work on some of your more dramatic cases. Thank goodness there's someone like yourself who can come along and help!!!! 🐄🐮👍💓💛💚💙💜🌈
The places quarantine takes you.…
So true!
I feel u on that one
I'm at the point where I'm staring at the same few videos and then farrier vids and these come along
Living life through life others
Right
This guy’s immune system must be boss
I agree
Like every third world country individual.
His blood may be the cure for the covid 19
@@majinn8373 You think a farm is like the third world 🤣
Lol, cow patties were the best toys ever. When they dry make great frisbees or they are good dodge balls semi dried so you can pack balls from them like you do snow balls :D
Guess farm kids just grow up a bit different. Dirt and shit wash, blood dries and wounds heal. Family you have one chance to take care of and be there for, miss it and you'll miss out on the important stuff in life.
TH-cam recommended did not disappoint. I have worked around a lot of livestock that we had to euthanize over problems like this. Glad to see there is a solution other than execution. Thank you for what you do and I will gladly subscribe.
Best thing about your videos is your positive attitude. It shows you care about the animals you treat and so you enjoy you job!
I love your channel and what you do! This morning I went on Facebook and seen some girl who ofcourse just wants “clout or fame” reposted this video and tried to shame you for what you were doing? And Ofcourse all the uneducated people hopped on their with their negative uneducated comments. Keep on doing you and keep on helping these beautiful creatures! You’re doing a great job and service! Love the vids!
Graeme getting a golden shower was the highlight of my day 😂
Just got to that bit as I read your comment 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't know what would be worse: the Golden Shower or the Mudslide!🤣
That's not the only shower she gave him either. She also let him know her mind with the different moos. 'Who so you think you are putting me up here?'
Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I've noticed someone on Facebook stealing your videos and not crediting you what so ever. I don't remember what page they were but just keep your eye out. They had a few compilations of the "bad hooves". I just dont this k its right for them to take credit from such a lovely and honest person like you. ❤
I love how he starts to get peed on and doesn't move right away. 😂😂
secretly his fetish lol
Ann Beckman
He thought that she was only squirting, not showering 😹
He’s used to it. 🤣
i bet R Kelly liked that too
Watch at 5:07.
I gained a sense of satisfaction watching this man work with his hands the compassion and the relief that he brings to the animal. He has a God given gift. Bravo
I thought by 'unfixable' that it would mean a trip to the knacker's yard! Good that you could help.
Same here!
What is that?
PoloValid burger town.
aaron glass oh thought so😅
@@76cruisin "knacker's yard" by reading the James Harriett books, its the yard you send animals to be slaughtered.
I've been binge watching your channel for a few months now. I really like how much you CARE about the animals. It's not just a job for you and that is so admirable. The Scottish accent is just a special bonus. :) Keep up the great work. You inspire me to go do the work that would make me happy instead of just doing it for the money. Big hugs from across the pond (USA).
watching you use a grinder on that cow's foot, you could peel a peach with that thing - very delicate use of a frighteningly powerful tool.
You mentioned silage. I worked on a research farm straight out of school, looking at different grass species. We made silage and when done some of that stuff was so nice it was difficult to resist gobbling some of it - but we often had to get out of the way of the animals as they rushed it. Definitely the food of choice for sheep.
Too funny! I've been trying to get a recipe for 8yrs because this older woman makes a jam that tastes exactly how good silage smells. I've been begging since she was in her early 80s but no deal. It's a recipe her great grand made 🤤
Who saw this on your recommended and now you watch a lot
"See this crack?? Bla bla.."
Cow: *taking a dump on the background*
Quite lemony, a hint of oak - 😂😂 what I love about your channel is, your enthusiasm, passion and your smiley outlook on life, just shines through your videos
Sorry my friend, but I laughed a little harder than I should have when she wizzed on ya!!!!!! HAHAHAHA!
We own a farm and iys all fun til you are milking in a pit and they pee and poop its terrible..but its worth it..alot of people hate Dairy Farmers..we do 100% grass-fed organic our cows are worth about $5,000 each.. the last thing we would do would be abuse our cows.. they can pee and poop on us all day and we still love them
Don Mega Same!!
Don Mega, I did too!!!
Totally lost it!
Sorry not sorry?
As I’m reading the comments, I realize they’re
all in Graeme's amazing Scottish voice in my head. As if he’s reading them aloud. 🤪
Have 2 farms on each side of us & I never knew cows hooves needed trimming! Going to check out the neighbors now!
I love these videos but I also love just viewing the country side and imagining all the people just going about their daily lives. The world is large, but also so small. Keep it up from Vancouver BC
That is exactly what I thought too!
It looks so magical but the reality is going just as is down there, in the Village.. and you look up and are looking at magic..
Graeme can make magic real and the other way round.. just love it..
Oh I agree. I adore the peaceful footage and the glorious land. His editing is so thoughtful. I just love it.
You’re an amazing individual. Looking at that horrible mess is gross yet you look at it, diagnose the issue, formulate a treatment protocol and the implement it. That’s great stuff. I especially like the concern for the animals comfort and recovery as much as possible. That’s why we visit your channel regularly Graham; because of your empathetic and skillful treatment of the cows. How’s Bessie (812) fairing lately? Haven’t heard much. Thank you. 😎👍🏻
You did such a great service to that cow Graeme. I just love how every part of your videos is thought through. The editing, your voice over, from the beautiful ending to the music that is included. Every part is wonderful. Thank you for such great experiences. You live in a wondrous land. ✨
It really is amazing the different landscape colors beautiful deep green light green , brown rock walls are the most breathtaking I think 💭 I could daydream just looking at the sky and walls and the turf 🤲🏼🤲🏼🤲🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😇😇😇😇😇😇😇🫶🏼🇦🇼💭💭💭💭💭
You are always so gentle with the cows & bulls it’s lovely to see
I saw the title and immediately thought "nah, Graham will help it!" I'm so glad you were able to. As usual. Well done.
It is wonderful to see the work you do, correcting the problems and injuries the cows have developed. Most gratifying for them to be in less pain and discomfort!
..it's good that pros are available for proper care of cattle hooves, happy cows keep the herd healthy and prosperous...great vid
I've just discovered your channel,I'm in so much pain from an infected tooth that I just had a root canal on !! Watching your work with these animals makes me realize I'm not so bad after all 🤗🐄
I feel so bad for this poor girl imagine how much pain she’s in 😔 but thanks to this sweet sweet man who’s so amazing and helps cows she is all better!
Greame I wanted to tell you thank you for talking James into doing youtube your brother is like you he's amazing I've never seen anything like it you and James are so frecking gifted it's not even funny anyway sending Much love and your whole family and good vibes your way and May God continue to bless you
What's his brothers channels name. Trying to find it with no luck.
@@karid.4371 Just look for James Parker Sculpture.
He creates the most beautiful sculptures! Enjoy watching!
any Caliber ❤️👍👍👍🇨🇦
I agree!
Definatly appreciate the level of care you proved. I watched a new channel recently that was slightly alarming to me because of the poking a jabbing the trimmer seemed to be doing at a sore in the foot. So much so the the cow reacted every time. Your level of care is so much better in my eyes, so much more full of heart and compassion. Maybe I'm wrong about the other trimmer since I'm not an trimmer or ferrier myself and you're really the only channel I watch of cow hoof trimming. Either way, keep up the great work!! Your videos bring a smile to my face and I'm always happy to see the new ones pop up!❤
Great video. I really liked the explanation with the props of the hoove and calcified bone at the end. Really helps to see the real problem underneath.
😂 I love that you include your mistakes and such!
I never would have believed I'd be hooked on watching cow hoofs being trimmed.I can always appreciate a top professional at work.
Lucky girl to have such an knowledgeable hoof doctor like yourself taking good care her. Keep on doing great work. Your awesome. #Scottishhoofdrrocks
I should really stop skipping foreward, cause i went from him useing the knife to the entire claw having a red substance covering the hoof and i was just like "oh god what happened"
Your work ethic humbles me. Your work is so important and I love to see how well you employ your vast knowledge and expertise to benefit bovine. You are an asset to the industry. I salute you.
“Quite lemony, with hints of oak, maybe silage” LMAO funny G!!
I’m a City girl and I truly Love Animals but I couldn’t do your job . I do think you are a wonderful person doing this to help those beautiful Cows .
This Chanel always makes me smile. Good wholesome content. I wonder if these cows see you, and know they're going to finally get some relief.
Bowel relief
I'm getting a taste .. a bit lemony🍋🍋 hints of oak 🌰🌰 maybe silage!! 😝 Oh geez pee! God bless you for having a sense of humour 🤭😄👍💗
When I first saw that I thought it would be beyond help, but good to see you can do something for her to help, even when past the point of fixing.
Dealing with hooves in an industrialized farm setting must be tough. I'm always struck by how every hoof seems to be coated in feces, so it's not hard to imagine why a defect or crack in a hoof almost always ends up getting infected and causes problems eventually.
I wish i had some cows so you can come and take care of them. It my 2nd day that i star watching your videos and honestly you have my respect !!! GREAT JOB !!!
I love the fact that he plays it off like the cow didn't shit
When the cows walk away, it's like a person trying on new shoes, awkward, testing the fit, little steps until they get the feel of it. Then its o.k.
Great analogy!!!
We've all been there when it comes to working with cattle. Still funny to see it happen to someone though.
Thanks for the technical breakdown with the calcification example. Really outstanding info.
The amazing comfort provided to these cows is sooo interesting
I love how you explain the problem, what you need to do and how you're fixing the problem. Thank you!
me:* crying because my bf broke up with me* youtube: hey wanna see huge hoof problems me : yes :,)
random youtube recommendation cures boredom and sadness sometimes lol
Damn my bf broke up with me this morning what a coincidence
bruh moments
Xx_The_Thorned_Rose_xX did you let him smash tho?
I guess TH-cam wants you to.....
mooooooove on!
I'm so sorry you got peed on Graeme... But I couldn't stop laughing! My husband looked at me like I had 3 heads because I was laughing so hard!! 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks for your awesome videos!! 👍
My kids did too...then I showed them and they laughed just as hard
Jodi A just woke my boyfriend😂😂 it was so funny and i just couldn’t keep it in 😂
one of the grossest thing that veterinarians must face😂😂
You'll have to get your husband to join the group.
You worked your magic again Graeme. This poor cow must have been so uncomfortable with her hoof in such a bad way. Thank goodness her owner got you on the job to help her out. Another great video as always.
I want to visit Scotland and watching these videos makes me want to definitely do it.
I just love your passion for helping these gentle giants
This is by far the earliest to a video that I have ever been!
I died when he said "it's quite lemony.." 😂😂😂
Oak...and maybe silage...I haven’t laughed that hard in a while.
You are a great guy and very entertaining as well as educational. Don’t ever let the world get you down. ❤
There's something very satisfying about watching you work.
Safety glasses Graeme Safety glasses !!! I too laughed when she peed on you cause you didn't move right away. Lol !!! Thank you for sharing and don't forget your safety glasses. ❤🙂🐄👍
Cow: “you picking up what I’m lay’in down?”
Whhoooa, what a trooper!
Awesome description of the underlying problem!
Just found your channel. It’s really interesting how different cow and horse hoove care is and in ways similar. It’s fascinating to me to see how you solve problems. I live on my aunts horse farm helping them run it and my aunts BF is a farrier and has been for 30 years or more so I have learned a lot more from him plus we have had a few horses get laminitis and that’s quite a challenge too. That’s also his specialty so it helps. The local vets call him out to clients when they can’t do much but pain relief. Rick usually get the horse more comfortable and teaches Owen how to manage it. It’s also cute you bring your son out to work with you at times. Just watched one before this where you had him along. Cute as a button! Lol smart kid. Thanks for,sharing what you do with the world. I don’t think a lot of people understand how much work (and money) it is to care properly for large animals.
Appreciated your visual at the end showing the bone damage that is irreversible. What caused that problem to happen in the first place?
Love that you are sporting a Scheels hat! Watching you from Minnesota!
I noticed that, too! Nice! Graeme, if you ever get to Fargo, North Dakota, you will need to check that store out! And I just found your channel here - LOVE IT!
That video made my evening! I love your positive attitude and kindness! I wouldn't be surprised if TV will knock on your door to make a serie with you very soon!👍 The Toe bro for cattle.. 🥰
You are right. I thought the left horn was waaay to long. I'm enjoying learning about an industry or business I didn't even know existed.
I love your channel Graeme it makes me happy to see you helping cows
Love your new intro! There's enough edgy out there, your new intro is like opening a letter from a friend... Glad that farmer has you on board for that bovine gal; she will surely be the better for it.
I love your videos, but would like to request a change of music. I do like the soundtracks but am ready something different! Please.
