I wondered why you all were saying I’m so nasty … I forgot about the pee 😂🤣
Awesome video, as always though!
A few months from now on, I'll be like "hey grimey, remember that time you drank cow piss?"
Happens 😂
Imma be real for a dude who just tasted pee you handled it way more casual than i would've lol
I used to take care of horses the amount of shit you see you just get use to it kick it aside keep working and remove it later you become desensitized to it although I wouldn’t say that desensitized bud lmao
When I was very young, the field behind our house was pasture for milk cows. About once a month I'd wake up to a cow licking my face. My immediate reaction was always the same. I'd shout, "Mum, give Mr. Major a call, there's one of his cows in the back garden!"🙀
The farmer would come around and walk to cow back to the pasture. I've loved cows ever since. Thanks for the memory.
Did you fall asleep in your garden or have your window open? Also, minor spelling mistake, second last sentence. "I've LOVED cows ever since."
Was it always the same cow licking your face, or did multiple cows decide to? :o
Different ones.@@pigcatapult

I’m tearing up for her .. oooooff that’s gotta hurt …🫣😱
It is 4 am just finished writing a 1000-word paper for class. For the past 12 hours, I've just been watching this channel and writing my paper. Thank you so much for the fantastic content.
I have no earthly idea why I watch this but it draws me in and I’m addicted to watching cow hooves get fixed lol.
Me too
Same.
Ditto
Same
Takes me back to my childhood growing up on the farm.
I think everyone was holding their breath for this one. Fantastic job done 👍🏻😀
Your poor wife she hasn't a clue what she might be getting each time she kisses you 😂😂😂 Thanks for another awesome hoof trim and hope this girl is well on her way to recovery ❤
😂😂😂
My 3yo son, 5yo daughter and I watch one of your videos every night before bedtime. We started watching a couple years ago out of shear curiosity and now HGP is our favorite channel!
I am amazed that you never knicked that ulcer and made it bleed. Your attention to detsil is amazing!!!! I thought the pee thing was hilarious! Great video! You do such a great job at taking care of all of these cows. I am sure the farmers are truly greatful!
Such a deft touch!
1:30. I think that's the biggest chunk of hoof horn I have seen you remove all at once. That ulcer is huge!
Yes! I thought the same! That hole looked like a furl in a tree trunk
Your precision is insanely crazy good. I knock over my glass reaching for the salt and pepper and jack up my beard when i trim it. I really enjoy watching you care for the ladies. Never would have imagined it hadnt i came acrossed a hoof trimmer speaking "another," language, getting shat upon and grinning ear to ear. Thank you for sharing this important part of your life.
I came across your channel a couple months ago and just was fascinated watching you trim cow hooves. Some of the cows that come in with issues that you really have to work on They have open ulcers in their hoof The only thing I can say is poor baby as you're working on them. Thank God for people like you who truly love what you do and have the cows best interest in mine. 😊
I have been watching for a while now. I love GP and his family. This is a great channel.
Well done mate ,yet again good job xx
@tinamenard4365 Same here. The entire video I just kept saying, "Poor baby" 🥺 Except when he pretended to lick his glove. At first I thought he really did! 🤢 😂
Ditto
Poor thing must have been in agony! Thank goodness for you Graeme. By highlighting these issues, hopefully you encourage other farmers to call in hoof specialists to look after their cows. Thank you for making her comfortable Graeme, I look forward to seeing how she is on the next trim. ❤️🙏🏻
yeh & in agony for a LONG time for it to have gotten that overgrown too! Poor cow is right! How can the farmer mistreat her so badly?
The precise strokes of this very talented hoof surgeon are sure to help this poor cow. She and all of your followers are truly thankful!
Talk about precision cutting with the knife when you went around the ulcer, I actually held my breath. Beautiful work. ❤❤
This was a great video. Not only informative but funny. “Not that Grindr, this grinder.” 😂
I will never look at Apple juice in the same way now!! 😂😂
It’s hoof trims like that that makes it so satisfying.
Routine Trims are amazing, but helping out hooves that have gotten this bad are something else!
This was a huge sole ulcer! I’ve never seen you take such a drastic chunk of hoof layer off any cow before like this, I hope she feels better soon!❤😊
I hope she gets follow up treatment. Can't even imagine how long she was left in pain for it to become so big & hoof so overgrown!
@@mehere8038 oh yeah he'll revisit her in a couple weeks. Also it's quite possible (according to my uncle, who is a farmer) that this hoof is more under worn than overgrown, since she was avoiding stepping on her heel where the ulcer is.
@@davyt0247 he'll only revisit if the farmer agrees to it though, that's my fear, that the farmer will say no & decide the cow is "fixed" & he doesn't need to spend more money on hoof trimming. I suspect Graeme thinks this is possible too & that is the reason he left so much on the outside of the hoof, in case he doesn't get to return for a follow up once the block comes off.
Under worn does make sense, but the layers he spoke of in this one, with the stop/starting in growth, that has to indicate the problem's been there for quite some time doesn't it? Has to have been at least a couple of months at the absolute minimum it seems to me.
I just really feel that the farmer should have at least tried to trim it himself if he couldn't afford or get a hoof trimmer in for some reason, given how long it appears to have been a problem for, even just stick a block onto the good toe until he could do something more - and on that, when a block is applied, Graeme sometimes leaves them on for 6-8 weeks for long term injuries & so in those cases, the toe without the block gets no wear for that entire time & they don't grow longer than the block in that time, so that alone seems to me to be giving some sort of time frame on growth rate & that this has been there for.
I know in most cases the farmers care & do the right thing, I mean like he always says, it's more profitable for them to do it, even if nothing else, but I really don't feel like that was the case here, udders are pretty big, seems like the cow was somehow still producing fine, so farmer just ignored the problem :(
@@mehere8038 it's certainly possible the farmer ignored it, but cows also hide pain well, so it's also possible he didn't know. Although yes it is possible the farmer doesn't care, but I doubt it, Graeme probably wouldn't trim for a farmer who doesn't care for his cows. With a large farm sometimes one slips notice. I think it's more likely the farmer just noticed and immediately put her into the routine trim cows.
Most likely in a few weeks when Graeme returns to that farm he'll have the farmer make sure she's with the cows he's trimming so he can get a recheck.
@@davyt0247 I've watched a few of these videos in a group, so I could be mixing them up, but I'm thinking this one was a new one from what he was saying, again I could easily be confusing videos. If it is a new one, I could imagine him taking it on, hoping to build a relationship with the farmer & educate the farmer & in doing so have the farmer then care for them better, even if his initial impression is that there's inadequate hoof care. I mean obviously if he can see the farm overall is neglecting them I'm sure he wouldn't take them on, but I could imagine if a farm doesn't have a good, regular trimmer, they could be unaware of the issues & even of the amount of production that can be lost to pain/problem feet, so I can totally imagine that Graeme could end up at a farm where he's not sure how much the farmer cares, but is hoping to improve it if it's not good.
I mean I guess we get to see, don't we :) If there's an update on this cow in a few weeks time, we know he returned, which would indicate the farmer is doing the right thing, if there is no update, then life might have gotten in the way & the video might have been missed being done for some reason, or it might indicate he did not return to this farm, so time will probably tell :)
& I agree prey animals are experts at hiding injuries, but there has to be a limit as to what's reasonable in missing overgrowth/underwear of hooves when milking cows twice a day & therefore being so close to their feet & presumably having a pretty good idea of what they should look like as part of their job. My pet parrots hide their pain pretty well when they want to (they don't really with me, cause they trust me & want me to give them their pain relief, but they do with people they don't know & trust), but they certainly don't manage to hide when their nails are overgrown, it's pretty dam obvious! (and girl does try to hide her feet/nails from me, cause I screwed up a while back & trimmed too much & hurt her in doing it)
I like that y’all try to make every video unique. They’re not formulaic and therefore never boring!! Sending love from Texas!
hiya graeme!! this poor girl! with the huge slabs of hoof you removed i hope she feels better quickly. you are her knight in shining armor!!
The cow is definitely feeling much better after opening up and exposing this ulcer.
I was burned in a house fire in 1981 at the age of 3. This caused immense foot problems throughout my life, eventually leading to amputations. I have an oddly personal relationship with different foot doctors, leading to a keen appreciation for your work. You, sir, are really a blessing. Even if you are Scottish. 😂 kidding
This is when a follow up video is in instant need 😊
She’s walking great after the hoof work you did.😄👍♥️
Wow your finger nearly disappeared in that hole! Poor cow such a sore foot but I’m sure with you on the case she’ll soon be much better ❤
You are a true master. I love watching your videos. I know it sounds strange, but I love cows and watching you help them makes me feel good. I too find myself holding my breath when you’re close to the issue.
Not sure if you'll see this, but I always have been curious: when do you choose NOT follow the standard plan? This video being an example where you jump straight to the problem, though in this case I can see a reason that makes sense in my own head. With the problem being located right at the modeling area, with an unknown depth to it, finding the problem before balancing the hoof makes sense.
I see ALL comments … and read them all too 😁
I always stick to the plan of completing all 5 steps of the method I use - but you’re right, sometimes I deviate from the order they’re supposed to be done in. If I think there’s a particular problem that may be affected by my grinder of that I’d benefit from seeing as early as possible then I’ll make an effort to expose that problem as early as I possibly can
Have to say you certainly showed your knife skills with this one, it was so big bless her and you had to remove so much hoof and get so so close to that ulcer yet you didnt spill one drop of blood (i know thats the one thing you always aim for but when dealing with a living creature you cant always help but see the blood at times even when your being as careful as you always are and people need to realise that😊)
That trim was a work of art; absolutely amazing. What skill with the knife! Superb!
Oh my that is a huge ulcer Graeme. On its way to being healed. ❤️🇦🇺🏴
That looked so painful. Thank you for giving her a modicum of comfort.
Did not know that this was a process that cows needed geese who knew they needed this. Grateful for the HOOFGP and the care and love that is given to these girls. WOW so sweet.🥰
Thanks for the hose pipe wash the detritus off the hoof. When watching in these videos, a washed hoof is SO much easier to see and discern all the aspects you are describing. Fascinating to see with far less mucky. :)
Poor cow foot! Glad you could help her begin to get well.❤❤❤
Ur so so so amazing I love how you help the cows and animals and look after them❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 0:52 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That looked so painful! Thank God these cows have you to help them. Thank you! ❤️🐮
Can't wait to see her progress in your future visits
Beautiful job helping her feel better
That made me hold my breath as you expertly carved around that pedunculated ulcer! We will definitely need an update! You are so skilled with the hoof knife!💕🇨🇦
Bless her 😩❤ brilliant work as always HGP, will definitely be watching out for the update on her ❤
Great video, showing all the hard work that goes into the cows feet ,you must must all go home feeling that you have a made a big difference thank you ❤
Ive never worked on a farm, never even been close up to a cow but i love these videos. You do a fantastic job!
Wow, you are so delicate around that ulcer!!! Great job❤
Poor lass she must have been in so much pain great job guys
graham you are such a kind man to do this work on cow`s feet you take care and good luck in your future.
Just watched one of your early videos that popped up in my timeline wow things have changed loads and your commentary and teaching has got so much more relaxed the way you explain things now and why your doing things and what for is so much more in depth just like your camera angles
Sorry don't mind me, just giggling a bit at that piece of hoof horn on Graemes face 😂
Oh that's a big Ulcer, poor cow having that thing sticking out of her hoof!
Hi Graham you had your work cutout for you that Cow's hoof was in a mess Graham you made a big improvement of her hoof well done
I discovered your posts after watching several horse hoof trimmers, as horses are my first love. However, I have become absolutely hooked on HGP. I love the care you have for the animals and the way you explain each process. Thanks for what you do and posting it for us to enjoy. BTW, this was the largest piece or hoof horn I have ever seen you remove
Wow! That was one huge ulcer! I can't believe how close you were able to cut to it! Thank you for sharing your incredible talents with us!😊
I never would of thought I would be amazed by your video’s! You do such an amazing job and I love listening to to your voice!
I'm always fascinated/impressed by how careful you are during a trim.
Wow! That was a precision trim!!! What a whopping ulcer! It will be interesting to see the follow up on her progress.
Can you imagine how much better she feels?!?!!! Well done as usual! 🐄❤️🐄
Poor cows! 🌺🌷💖🙏🏻... Thank you Graeme 🌟🍀💚.
Poor thing, Here's hoping for a speedy recovery!
I am guessing, but it will probably need another trim or two, just because of how big that ulcer is. Might need a few salicylic acid and iodine treatments to shrivel it down to nothing.
Another excellent job getting another cow well on the way to recovery. 👏
Looking forward to seeing this little cow again soon!
Poor girl! This was so bad. I appreciate how gentle your work is. Is this one of those perdunculated ulcers you showed us before?
Your job is SO important. I can not help but wonder about all the cows that never get helped. Thank you for al your hard & necessary work.
Ditto the sentiment. 💓
heh. I found a hoof-trimming knife exactly like that one (Thick wooden handle) in my grandparents "Misc" drawer just yesterday. Also did you know that the World Science Fiction convention will be in Glasgow next year? I'll be attending!
Ouch, poor girl! GP to the rescue, yay!👍👍❤️
I'm so glad your there to help these animals 😊!❤
How long do you think it would have taken for that ulcer to get so bad? Is there anything that could’ve been done to prevent it? Is it because they’re not having their hooves trimmed regularly? Thanks so much for a compelling video and like everyone else, I hope the poor baby gets better soon, that must be very painful for her. As a cow lover and a dairy food lover, I am very grateful for people like you who take such good care of these wonderful animals.
Im so glad to see you asked the same question I've asked on many of these videos. Was thinking someone who's familiar with this would respond. But, so far nothing.
When he said he was almost holding his breath, I realized I was!
This is so satisfying to watch, Thank you!!
Thank you for another great video and another job so well done🐮
I'm surprised that the sole ulcer will eventually disappear. My first thought was, that it would need to be removed by a vet.
Ulcers are pretty common issues he comes across. Thankfully no vet intervention needed on this one, now toe necrosis and a growth between the toes is a vet job.
@@davyt0247 Thank you😁
I see you became the hoof-GPeePee
😄😁😆😅🤣😂🤣😂🤣🙃🙂🙃🙂😉😊
LMAO 😂
it probably feels so much better even though there is still alittle pain. you work miracles and i am sure she will be find in months ahead.
The last clip with your Dad, his arms out like he is master conductor of his cows. All eating all happy. You must be proud Tom
His name is Graeme, and his dad has been dead for a long time. I think you're commenting on the wrong channel.
Lol. Wrong channel.
tom Pemberton???
Thank you for sharing this video with us. That Ulcer looked so very painful. I couldnt imagion walking let alone standing on that hoof. You could tell it wasnt as painful as it was. I know someone who had a similart type of situation. They stood on Concrete for 8 hrs 5 days a week then would walk 3 1/2 miles home finally had to go have their leg removed from just below the knee and now is learning how to walk with a Prosthetic. That is one tough cookie. 😊
I never cease to be amazed at the incredibly sharpness of the knives you use. I would surely have a few less fingers if I tried it.
WOW STILL ON CATCHING UP VIEOS BUT LOVE THEM ALL AND ALL YOU DUE FOR THE COWS 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Poor thing!!! That was bloody huge!! I will love to see an update on her
Love the work you do relieving the cows from pain. But I do miss the drone shots of the gorgeous Scottish countryside.
You're a beast with your knife work Graeme 👍🏾
Always makes my day when a Hoof GP video gets posted....
I’ve been watching your videos for quite some time now and this one seem to be pretty rough but you did an outstanding job and that should show everybody how sharp your knives are. Hopefully down the road. Will get an update of that cow once again very good job.
Well done. You really know what youre doing and that makes me happy. You got to be able to trust a farrier.
Graeme, I don't think I've ever seen you pull that big a chunk of hoof horn away. A good job, well done.
Wow! You’re so talented at cutting around that without cutting the ulcer….that takes precision!! 🎉😮😊
Great job! That was a nail=biter and I was holding my breath as well.
Thank God for people like you who truly love what you do
When I was a teenager long ago, I worked in a shoe repair shop. One of my jobs was to trim the new leather soles that the cobbler had put on the customers’ old shoes. The “lip knife” I used to trim the leather looked very similar to your hoof trimming knives. I wonder if the 2 types of knives have some common origin. Love your videos!
Graeme-You have the steady hands of a surgeon, and although your GP are your initials, it also should stand for General Practitioner which ties into your stethoscope logo! 😊
How is the sheep going Graham? Please update us on the sheep... we love the sheep 🐑❤
Good job clearing that ulcer. She barely noticed you there, and now she’ll be able to walk so much better. Thanks for all you do. Great trim.
Curious, was thinking, would it be helpful to create a “donut for an ulcer like that, I.e. a block that’s shaped around the ulcer to keep her from bumping it while walking?
@@MattGooch1515Excellent idea! I was thinking about that cow stepping on a large stone that she would feel through the bandage. I think with a donut block she could avoid that.
That was a pretty big ulcer pushing out her sole. Poor cow that was nasty. 😬 She did seem to walk pretty well after her trim. 🙂
Can't wait to see how she is in a few weeks. 🤓
I'm so glad you got to this lady! She surely needed it!
Just wow on that first swipe. In all your videos, I've never seen the knife pass that fast and easy through a hoof.
That was great work! I‘m wondering how often you have to sharpen your knife? How do you sharpen it with the curve? Thanks for sharing these adventures in your day!
I marvel at the work you do. And then I realise how much we all take for granted. Thank you for all you do.
Hey that's a great video right to the point. great camera angles and good work. good sharp knife. well done.
one of the more amazing trims I have watched here! just incredible how HUGE that ulcer is....would love to see resolution of this one...poor baby!
That foot looks SO much better!
Every night at 10 o’clock I watch one of you vids and they are so good❤
😅 Graham you can be so nasty! I poured my apple juice out!
LoL 😝 😝 😂
😲😳😖😊
So many memories from showing cows as a kid when I heard the cows bellowing in the background ❤
Was anyone else holding their breath as Graham was cutting around the ulcer?
Thank you for another brilliant video, Graeme. I did wince when I saw that ulcer! I hope that beautiful cow recovers soon. Looking forward to seeing the updates. Huge thank you for the wonderful videos and explanations. ❤
I’ve started and can not stop watching your videos amazing job
