... I've got the music far too high in this video - I'm really sorry if it's annoying for anyone. I loved making this video and loved spending the day with Bob - check out his channel, Scotland Unplugged, if you can.
I just read an article on the Wallstreet Journal about your early life, family "challenges" and the circuitous route you took to hoof trimming. I was wondering how profitable the business was so came across a brief synopsis or your journey. Wow, over 600 people signed up for your first hoof trimming seminar from all parts of the world. It's amazing how your first videos intended for farmers have skyrocketed into massive interest around the world. Can't wait for your book to come out. I hope it goes into more detail about the family dynamics, tragedies and triumphs that guided you into trimming. Fascinating. Well done!
It helps that Greame is extremely attractive. Yes he is happily married, with cute kids ..but he is so hot, with a gift of explaining in such a way that's interesting. Better then most Hollywood hunks...lol
@@ConStins70 Being respectful and kind is a very important trait to have.❤ Some things just don’t need to be said out of respect and that’s being kind.
I love the way we are with each other in Scotland. I've tried to tell other people that if a Scotsman is nice and polite / courteous with you, chances are he really doesn't like you. I'm not sure folk believe me, though 😅
I keep telling my American friends in particular that Brits in general will only tease you/take the P if we like you (it's not just Scots, I'm Welsh and Hubby is English - hence me being in exile 😂 - and I've had Irish friends from both sides of the border). Why waste breath on someone you don't like? 😅
Seeing you two at 7:15 brought a happy tear to my eyes. About 9 years ago my brother was in a car accident and became vegetative, and a few years ago he died. In that time I've bought land and livestock, and I know I would've had him next to me learning a thing or two if he could be there. I'm glad you had that opportunity with your brother.
Thanks everyone. My brother was someone who would never stop moving, learning, and would have lived in a tree in the forest if he could convince his wife and kids it was the right choice. As sad as it was, his death was a relief, because it meant he was no longer stuck in the prison of his own body, and his energy could move on. His ashes have been spread far and wide. They have been buried near his home, they nourish a tree in my yard, they travel in the mountain rivers he canoed, the winds blow them across the plains. I am at peace and moving forward, and so is he.
It isn't just a video or just hoof trimming. This your life and you have allowed us a glimpse into your life and it is an honor. I'm so glad this was such a great day for you. There is something so special about the bond between brothers.
It's a thing that often happens here where I live, a lot of people doing work for people (myself and other people I know included), we slip more into the accent of who we're talking to. It builds more of a rapport with the customer. I'm guessing that's what he's doing, not even intentionally, he's born and bred in that area so the accent is part of what he knows. It just comes out stronger when talking to someone who also has the accent coming out thickly
That's typical for most people with accents. When my Jamaican grandmother talks to her sisters it's like they're back home but when she pays bills you'd think SHE was the customer service rep.
Unfortunately because of the English there's still a perception that our accent and language are "lower class" somehow, so we get into the habit of turning it down when we're talking to strangers, or in public, and only really using it in private, or with friends and family. Happens with other languages being squeezed by English too, notice the post in this thread about Jamaican accents.
I keep seeing people on other hoof channels say they prefer the purely technical, short videos. I can't imagine why. I enjoy those as well, but these videos are just as enjoyable with music and seeing you guys driving through the countryside, seeing up the crush, and even the music parts over you just working away. Keep up the good work, I've even added the songs you use to my TH-cam driving playlist.
Oh God, those people are so dramatic about it too. Like, the whole point of TH-cam is you can customize your recommendations. So either hit the thumbs up, the thumbs down or even don't recommend channel. But those people act like playing a little bit of music during the hoof trim is like some egregious sin. They act like everything has to be a competition.
People can make whatever content the platform allows. People can watch whatever they want. People are allowed their opinion and to voice it. My Gran used to say if you haven't got anything nice to say about someone don't. So ill refrain from commenting about them. Funny how some people are so happy, you can tell this man, his crew and his girls are they don't feel the need to put other people down. "I like both kinds of music, country and western." It's a bleeding you tube channel. Keep up the good work lads from Australia. 13 hot? Now with that I'd have something to say. Come here I'll buy you a beer when it's 40, at 45 yeah, time for the pub, well even at 13 it would be come to think of it but those girls won't give themselves a pedicure that would be udderly ridiculous.
Me too, Mary. Some of the people I know have families who are constantly at odds with each other. My family is loving and supportive of each other and I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for them. I have a very large extended family and love them all.
Appreciated your brother's comments about the sorts of things we who are not familiar with this world can't pick up from a video, like the smells and where to stand. Also was interesting to see the cabinet with the block equipment and how it's stored and used.
Nice to see Bob out of his comfort zone! I love his Scotland Unplugged channel. All three of you brothers are so talented in your different ways. Great work as always, Graeme.
Bob's camera presence is indeed impressive! He effortlessly captivates the audience, and it's no surprise considering his natural talent. It's fascinating to see that he has his own TH-cam channel, "Scotland Unplugged." That explains his skills and passion for creating engaging content. Keep up the great work, Mr. GP! 🎥👏🌟
I was so happy to see Robert on your channel today. I watch his show regularly. It's really nice that he came to give you that family support. I can imagine how that would make me feel. Hope you all have a great week.
So nice seeing your brother there to watch you work. I enjoyed hearing about your days as a child. I can't wait for your book to come out and learning more of the Secrets of The Hoof GP. 🐄
I like Bob’s TH-cam stories. My good friend, she’s a Fraser and has been to Scotland a number of times, has a hard time understanding him. I listen to you and Cammy all the time, no problem.
Oh, my gosh! Graham your brother is just as you are, he even talk in the way you do.... Yes I know you both are scottish.... 😂😂😂 But no, even the tone in your voice! You know what I mean? I totally understand how much this means to you!! 🥰🥰🥰
I’m so happy that your brother took time to visit with you and that you shared his visit with us!! Yes, once you’ve spent childhood time on a farm, it never leaves you ❤️ And the music wasn’t too loud, in my opinion. Love your channel!
The bond between you and your brother is very special. I live with my 2 sisters but I do all the gardening by myself. My mother taught me everything I know. She's not around anymore and I feel so alone without her. If only it can show her my garden that she helped me build. 💝🌻🥀🌹🌳
She is with you and watches over you and your sisters! She sees your garden and she is very proud for her kids. A mother never leaves her kids! Her spirite is with you always!!! God bless
Wow Bob has a surprisingly good camera presence. He’s a complete natural; it must run in the family! Great video as always Mr GP Edit: He has his own TH-cam Channel “Scotland Unplugged”. That would explain it lol
It is always a joy to see brothers work together. I lost my youngest brother and my best friend three years ago. I am lucky in one way because I have three other brothers that try to fill the hole in my heart. Listening to the joy in Bob's voice has been very heart warming. I truly love all your videos and watching a master at work. 😊🥰👍👏
Bob's comments were very straightforward and interesting. The experience base of people who worked in or grew up with agriculture is more important than many folks realize.
I work a desk job and I 100% want to consider taking the hoof trimming course. Like I feel like it would be the most healing journey for me to step away from high pressure Engineering and New Product Development management and spend my life with animals, where my cares and worries were getting cows feeling better, and out of the crush as soon as possible... instead of making money for someone else.
If you've got the time , talent, and means, go for it! I've been a desk jockey all my work life and wish I had done something similar to what you're thinking about years ago (when I wasn't so close to retirement). Doing what you love for a living is an important life choice. Good luck to you!
Couldn't hurt! You could also consider shearing - Right Choice Shearing has a channel about their work as traveling shearers to small flicks/individual pets.
I live in the Pacific Northwest Washington State, U.S. of A. It rains 🌧️9 months of the year. & is overcast /☁️ cloudy a lot. 😂 I get it when you say how much you appreciate a sunny 🌞 day. 😀🥰 It was nice to see you & your brother and CraigieBoy together 🥰💐. The cows (or ladies as you called them) getting their pedicures Makes all females so happy 😁 😌 🥰 💜💚💙
I love Bob's POV & admiration of your work while reflecting a bit on your childhoods. Very happy he came along! Hope y'all had a great visit while he's down
No, I loved the song you were playing and actually caught a few words of it. I didn't even realise that this was "your song," so to speak. What is it please, I'd love to listen to it properly. I'm in South Australia, and I absolutely love watching this before I turn out the light. I find it extremely relaxing knowing that you are out they, doing what you're doing for the farms near and far around you. I could see myself doing something like this, caring for animals, and helping farmers out. Watching this each night, listening to your 'thick' Scottish accent makes my day. Please, don't get too busy that you stop the videos coming. I'm so glad to see your brother spend the day with yourself and Craig. I have no doubt that lots of fun was had by all. HUGE THANKS for sharing what you do. G'day from SA. 😀😃
This was absolutely amazing. Your brother provided some great shots that we normally don’t get to see, so thank you for allowing him to be part of the crew on this visit!
Hello Bob, so nice to see you with your brother and hear your observations. I can definitely see the similarities between you. Great video Graeme, now you have proof that the sun does shine in Scotland, those cows and their babies were so cute!💕🇨🇦
Hello Mr Bob and welcome to Graeme's TH-cam herd! What a wonderful day for you and your brother! It is about time!! I would LOVE to see your country myself, as, I am only 4th generation Canadian 🇨🇦 and my fathers said is all from Scotland. I also have family who have had a dairy farm in the family for over 100 years (inlaws) and can truly appreciate the hard work and team work that goes into farming. Thanks and praise from Peterborough Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️ BTW, very warm today here! 28 degrees C but no humidity. It does get 40 degrees here in the "dog days of summet" with the humidity.
Here from Bancroft Ontario your neighbor down the road. Lol my family is also from Scotland and Ireland and I'd love to visit both places. Where Graeme lives looks so beautiful. Wonderful to see Bob with the trimmers today. Handsome lot of men.
It gave me a warm feeling seeing you with your brother. Family and friends make me feel that way too. I had a farm for a bit and I did our goats hooves. I love watching and learning with your videos. 🐾🐕🦺
Good to see Bob coming along with you. He is so right about the smells etc., never leaving you. I spent the first couple of years of my life on a dairy farm, and visited often when we left. Even now at 57 if we go down to that area, I smell the damp air and the cow manure and I'm home.
I have to say this video was fun to watch the second time as the first. Coming from a family of 10 kids I understand picking on each other, especially with my younger sister who I don't think we ever said acnice thing about each other when we got together. But it was in fun. Love seeing Bob and he does have a great page. 💖💖💖
Great to meet you Bob, I hope you're not going to be a stranger to us. You're right, growing up on a farm, it never leaves you and it's always good to be back, even if only for a short while. All the best.
Poor heifer. Bless her heart. I grew up on farms. Dairy and meat farms. Limousine cattle are exceptionally sweet when hand raised. I tend to be partial, though.
Good Evening! I`m a city slicker and never knew that cows needed hoof trimming. I knew horses get shoes. Goes to show you even at my age i can learn something new. You are very good at what you are doing for those cows! Keep up the great work and I will keep watching. You have a great family and you and your brother look a lot alike. HAGDAGB!!
How fortunate you are to live in such a beautiful county as Scotland. Your pride and love of Scotland should mightily in you videos. Thank you for sharing that with us.
Enjoyed this video very much. Your brother seemed interested and his mannerisms and facial expressions make it obvious he is your brother. Always enjoy the cows. I milked cows for a few years for neighbours and loved the work. You get to know their personalities well and who is their best friend, waiting for them so they can walk back to the pasture together. Probably a bit weird but I take a deep breathe when the cattle truck go past home as l like the smell of them.
I can imagine how proud you were for your brother to come along with you today. Did he give you any pointers? And I can see the good looks run in the family.
Wow, You handsome chaps really look alike! Watching from America ❤️🙏🤗🇺🇸 AND, wondering why an 86 year old Granny loves your channel?? Maybe it is the help you give the cows & the beautiful countryside of Scotland! ❤️🤗🙏🇺🇸
Hey, how's it going Bob ? You did say that you'd give your bro a visit. Great to see you two brothers together and ofcourse His Craigship 😊😊😊 Job well done guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
So wonderful to see your brother with you! I understand about childhood memories being on a farm. I grew up in a large farming area, with many family members farmers, including my own being cattle farmers. I recently moved away from decades in the city to east Texas…small towns, LOTS of countryside. Every time my wife and I take a drive, a smile stays on my face, and I’m completely at peace. It never leaves you.
I watch both you and your brother's channel and love them both. The last time I saw my brother I got to spent the day helping him heard cows from one pasture to another, went 16 miles on horseback and had a blast. Getting to spend the day in his life will never be forgotten and is treasured as he was the last cowboy in our family of a long line of cattle ranchers.
What a dear family.....caring and love overcome the disasters we have to endure in time... Great to see Robert, love his "Scotland Unplugged" learned much history from his videos.....What's next?? Maybe James to visit the Hoof GP? ❤🐮❤
you and your brother are almost twins. I am so happy that you and he had a great time at the farm together. I hope you two do more videos together cause it was really heart warming to see. Thank you for the great video and thank you for the awesome smile you and your brother put on my face and in my heart. God bless you all.
This is beautifully produced Graeme and featuring your brother Bob and Craig too really came across how a family can work so well together. Thank you so much for these wonderful videos and allowing us to share your experiences.
Hi guys, that was an amazing and wonderful video experience. Having your brother there with Craigie and yourself must have been magical. His narrative along with yours really made this video a memorable experience for both of you and me. Thanks Graeme keep doing the great work you do.😊😊😊👋👋👋👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌👌👌✨✨✨
I’m a server and I am in Texas USA, and I served a guest last week from Scotland and when they asked for a flat white coffee I was so confused. I asked you mean dark or light roast and she smiled and said no dear it’s espresso with cream poured over top. I will add I’m not a coffee connoisseur only occasionally do I drink coffee so idk if this is a commonly used term for coffee made like that but I felt so silly not knowing lol….
I grew up on Long Island, New York. I lived in several places after high school and lost my accent. But whenever I talk with my family I revert to my Lawn Guyland accent and speech patterns. When you were talking with your brother you went full Scotland and I loved it!
Family is good to have around! Great to see Robert recognize all the work involved in your job! Good to see all those Mothers in top shape again and off with their young ones!😀😊
Mr HooF GP and team. You help lighten my heart with the good work you do for the cows. Thank you. As an old rancher your show re-awakens many good reminders of my time ranching. Bless you and your whole team. Thank you.
I just received my little Kirsty cow. She is adorable. I also got one for my great niece and she loves it. She feeds it and tries to milk her. Thank you so much. I love the videos and can't wait for new ones
I love watching your brother's videos of Scotland! I actually found his videos because I'm visiting Edinburg this summer and Google just suggested his videos to me. I didn't know he was your brother until you said go check out his channel a while back! Can't wait to see your beautiful country. ❤
This was a wonderful episode, and nice to see the handsome extends into the rest of the family! Honestly though, loved to watch the two of you together.
What an amotional episode! I'm so happy we got to share this moment with you. I'm so sorry for what happened to changed your happy childhood. Wishing you all a happy year ahead.
This was a great video. It seems like Robert filmed some segments and it was awesome to have a bit more zoomed out view to watch you and Craig work in tandem. Seeing the tools used and hung from a different vantage really showed another piece of the puzzle. Amazing synchronicity. It was also terrific seeing his commentary of being there and seeing it in person. You guys all make a great team as usual.
My new husband and I visited Scotland for our honeymoon. It was in September and decidedly cool, but it felt like home to me. I live literally in a desert a mile high. The air is thin and hot in the summer. 16 degrees Celsius would be an unusual blessing. I already watch your Bro’s channel.
It's great to see brothers working together. I have had the opportunity to work many jobs with my brother even though we live in different states. We both have the same careers (iron workers) but on the big jobs across the states we find each other. Another great video!!
Grew up on dairy farm in Wisconsin,USA. Many days spent trimming hooves of dairy cows with my dad. He's long gone now and those were the best days of my life. Thanks for the memories.😅
What a talented family, your Mom has to be so proud. Glad to see The Bard went to work with you and Craigie. Thank you for another fantastic video, best regards to Mrs HGP and the kids.
Love that Bob got to go to work with you. I love his channel too. He has a wonderful voice and should record audiobooks . He is cute to look at too. You too Graeme. :)
I love how Bob said how much was enough (not enough or too much) thats always my concern. I wouldnt want to make it worse but also to be ineffective isn't helpful. Great camera work, and incites. Loved thst your brother came today. Have a lovely day tomorrow.
This was a really fun video! I love that he talked about the smells and things were would not necessarily know about the experience. I definitely didn’t think about the burning hooves with the grinder. What a fun time to have him close. Thanks guys!
One of the greatest privileges in my adult life is having the opportunity to reconnect with my sibling and learn about the amazing, incredible, talented person they are. I never knew as a child to cherish the time we had together, but I think one of the gifts we get in adulthood, if we're lucky, is having the chance to rediscover those moments and share new ones. Glad you had this chance with Robert. Family will always be special.
Such a beautiful day!!! I really enjoyed this video (as I do all of them). Kinda back to the basics and showing us more of your day than just the severe cases. Like Bob you never really forget the farm life as a kid. The smells transport you back in time. A momentary childhood deja vu. ❤😊👍🏻
I don’t know how you do it. The music on your videos is ALWAYS so top notch. Just such a loving, calming, soothing background. You’ve always had that touch on all your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just read up on your life. You've gone through so much but have persevered. You are inspiring. I grew up on a farm in western Canada 🇨🇦. Our cows were all pasture raised and luckily none of them required a bovine pedi but I find this fascinating. Just subscribed! Keep doing what you're doing 👍.
... I've got the music far too high in this video - I'm really sorry if it's annoying for anyone. I loved making this video and loved spending the day with Bob - check out his channel, Scotland Unplugged, if you can.
It was perfect! The entire video was perfect! 😊 Love Robert & James too!
Scotland Unplugged is an awesome channel!
Naw the music was perfect. Who is the young lady singing she has a beautiful voice...I want her music!!!
I also want to be able to find her music.
The band is Houses on the Hill featuring Ebba Bergendahl. Song is called Fall into You. Great song.
“ His Craigness”😂 your brother is hilarious. So glad you were able to work with him that day. Always nice to spend time with family.

I'm so very sorry for your terrible loss. I hope you are getting some comfort from the animals on your farm. Much love to you 💜
I’m so sorry for your loss😢

I swear your accent thickens when you're talking to your brother or the farmers, AKA when you're not talking to the camera.
Okay it's not just me thinking that!😂
I’ve noticed that as well. 🏴🐄💙

I would have not expected to get so interested in hoof trimming but I truly do appreciate this channel! Awesome dedication by the way ❤
Same 😂❤
Appreciated your brother's comments about the sorts of things we who are not familiar with this world can't pick up from a video, like the smells and where to stand. Also was interesting to see the cabinet with the block equipment and how it's stored and used.
Sometimes it needs a novice to make the statements and ask the questions which we would ourselves if we were there.
Same! I always wondered how they prevented the glue from setting in the nozzle. Turns out they don't 🤣
Agreed!
Agreed! An in person rookie at your shoulder, asking the questions we would…and noticing things that are common to your job, but not to us🐄❤️
funny how something so mundane to them is so interesting to us! I felt the same way! I just knew the stench was formidable. No one seems to let on. 🤣
So heartwarming to see brothers really caring for one another and enjoying time together 💕
Nice to see Bob out of his comfort zone! I love his Scotland Unplugged channel. All three of you brothers are so talented in your different ways. Great work as always, Graeme.

I also enjoy Bob's channel!🤗💙
Bob is 🔥
@@EmpathBonz I know it's not a comedy channel but I always get a laugh or two from his videos. Usually from a facial expression or a bit of sarcasm.
What is Bob's channel called?
@@Yooperskepticz it's "Scotland Unplugged*.
It was so great to see your brother and you work together. He’s definitely got some of your energy and you can definitely see the family resemblance.

The bond between you and your brother is very special. I live with my 2 sisters but I do all the gardening by myself. My mother taught me everything I know. She's not around anymore and I feel so alone without her. If only it can show her my garden that she helped me build. 💝🌻🥀🌹🌳
She's right next to you when you're gardening ❤ I'm sure she's beyond proud of you🌹🌹
I’m sure she’d love it.
She is with you and watches over you and your sisters! She sees your garden and she is very proud for her kids. A mother never leaves her kids! Her spirite is with you always!!! God bless
Bob's as easy on the eye as you are! You can see the family resemblance. Nice to meet you Bob.
As a Texan, it’s so awesome to see not just one, but at least two TEXAS flags hangin in y’all’s barn!!
It's terrific that you got to spend time with your brother.
Hey, it’s Scotland Unplugged Bob! He’s a great storyteller as you can see from his little section here.
Wow Bob has a surprisingly good camera presence. He’s a complete natural; it must run in the family! Great video as always Mr GP
Edit: He has his own TH-cam Channel “Scotland Unplugged”. That would explain it lol
It is always a joy to see brothers work together. I lost my youngest brother and my best friend three years ago. I am lucky in one way because I have three other brothers that try to fill the hole in my heart. Listening to the joy in Bob's voice has been very heart warming. I truly love all your videos and watching a master at work. 😊🥰👍👏
Bob's comments were very straightforward and interesting. The experience base of people who worked in or grew up with agriculture is more important than many folks realize.
Glad you guys have quality time together. The world is so crazy right now, that seeing people you care about matters even more than ever.
I work a desk job and I 100% want to consider taking the hoof trimming course. Like I feel like it would be the most healing journey for me to step away from high pressure Engineering and New Product Development management and spend my life with animals, where my cares and worries were getting cows feeling better, and out of the crush as soon as possible... instead of making money for someone else.
If you've got the time , talent, and means, go for it! I've been a desk jockey all my work life and wish I had done something similar to what you're thinking about years ago (when I wasn't so close to retirement). Doing what you love for a living is an important life choice. Good luck to you!
Couldn't hurt! You could also consider shearing - Right Choice Shearing has a channel about their work as traveling shearers to small flicks/individual pets.
I live in the Pacific Northwest Washington State, U.S. of A. It rains 🌧️9 months of the year. & is overcast /☁️ cloudy a lot. 😂 I get it when you say how much you appreciate a sunny 🌞 day. 😀🥰
It was nice to see you & your brother and CraigieBoy together 🥰💐. The cows (or ladies as you called them) getting their pedicures Makes all females so happy 😁 😌 🥰 💜💚💙
I love Bob's POV & admiration of your work while reflecting a bit on your childhoods.
Very happy he came along!
Hope y'all had a great visit while he's down
No, I loved the song you were playing and actually caught a few words of it. I didn't even realise that this was "your song," so to speak. What is it please, I'd love to listen to it properly.
I'm in South Australia, and I absolutely love watching this before I turn out the light. I find it extremely relaxing knowing that you are out they, doing what you're doing for the farms near and far around you. I could see myself doing something like this, caring for animals, and helping farmers out. Watching this each night, listening to your 'thick' Scottish accent makes my day. Please, don't get too busy that you stop the videos coming.
I'm so glad to see your brother spend the day with yourself and Craig. I have no doubt that lots of fun was had by all. HUGE THANKS for sharing what you do. G'day from SA. 😀😃
This was absolutely amazing. Your brother provided some great shots that we normally don’t get to see, so thank you for allowing him to be part of the crew on this visit!
Hello Bob, so nice to see you with your brother and hear your observations. I can definitely see the similarities between you. Great video Graeme, now you have proof that the sun does shine in Scotland, those cows and their babies were so cute!💕🇨🇦
Something nefarious is afoot in Scotland.
😂
I see what you did there 😉
Nicely done! Lmao! 😂
Probably best to leg it out of the way.
Ahoof😂
A FOOT
I love family working with family...my brother and I work and live together...its great
I LOVE to watch you help these cows! You do a great job, and I am thrilled that your audience/subscribers are steadily increasing! SUPER!
Went to my dads farm to see the baby calves for the first time since last spring over this weekend. Farm never leaves you. My 4 yo had so much fun.
So good to see two brothers working side by side! Glad that you were able to have him with you! Another awesome video. Thankyou!
It must feel so good as a farmer to look at your livestock and know that they're well cared for and their feet don't hurt!
Hello Mr Bob and welcome to Graeme's TH-cam herd! What a wonderful day for you and your brother! It is about time!!
I would LOVE to see your country myself, as, I am only 4th generation Canadian 🇨🇦 and my fathers said is all from Scotland. I also have family who have had a dairy farm in the family for over 100 years (inlaws) and can truly appreciate the hard work and team work that goes into farming.
Thanks and praise from Peterborough Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 ♥️ BTW, very warm today here! 28 degrees C but no humidity. It does get 40 degrees here in the "dog days of summet" with the humidity.
Here from Bancroft Ontario your neighbor down the road. Lol my family is also from Scotland and Ireland and I'd love to visit both places. Where Graeme lives looks so beautiful. Wonderful to see Bob with the trimmers today. Handsome lot of men.
It gave me a warm feeling seeing you with your brother. Family and friends make me feel that way too. I had a farm for a bit and I did our goats hooves. I love watching and learning with your videos. 🐾🐕🦺
Nothing as heartwarming as seeing how happy you are when your with your brother. Cheers mate!
I am genuinely impressed by your experience and passion for what you do. The world needs more people like you.
Good to see Bob coming along with you. He is so right about the smells etc., never leaving you. I spent the first couple of years of my life on a dairy farm, and visited often when we left. Even now at 57 if we go down to that area, I smell the damp air and the cow manure and I'm home.
I have to say this video was fun to watch the second time as the first. Coming from a family of 10 kids I understand picking on each other, especially with my younger sister who I don't think we ever said acnice thing about each other when we got together. But it was in fun. Love seeing Bob and he does have a great page. 💖💖💖
Great to meet you Bob, I hope you're not going to be a stranger to us. You're right, growing up on a farm, it never leaves you and it's always good to be back, even if only for a short while. All the best.
Poor heifer. Bless her heart. I grew up on farms. Dairy and meat farms. Limousine cattle are exceptionally sweet when hand raised. I tend to be partial, though.
I love the love that you share towards the animals. You’re a wonderful person Graeme. 17:32
His name is Graeme, just FYI!
@@Origamigryphon Thank you!
@@stellacobb8715 you're very welcome!
Good Evening! I`m a city slicker and never knew that cows needed hoof trimming. I knew horses get shoes. Goes to show you even at my age i can learn something new. You are very good at what you are doing for those cows! Keep up the great work and I will keep watching. You have a great family and you and your brother look a lot alike. HAGDAGB!!
How fortunate you are to live in such a beautiful county as Scotland. Your pride and love of Scotland should mightily in you videos. Thank you for sharing that with us.
Enjoyed this video very much. Your brother seemed interested and his mannerisms and facial expressions make it obvious he is your brother.
Always enjoy the cows. I milked cows for a few years for neighbours and loved the work. You get to know their personalities well and who is their best friend, waiting for them so they can walk back to the pasture together. Probably a bit weird but I take a deep breathe when the cattle truck go past home as l like the smell of them.
I can imagine how proud you were for your brother to come along with you today. Did he give you any pointers? And I can see the good looks run in the family.
Wow, You handsome chaps really look alike! Watching from America ❤️🙏🤗🇺🇸 AND, wondering why an 86 year old Granny loves your channel?? Maybe it is the help you give the cows & the beautiful countryside of Scotland! ❤️🤗🙏🇺🇸
Hey, how's it going Bob ? You did say that you'd give your bro a visit. Great to see you two brothers together and ofcourse His Craigship 😊😊😊 Job well done guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
So loved seeing your brother coming along with you!! You guys do look alike! My kids all look so different!
Your parents must be really proud. ❤ how fun spending time with your brother 😂
So wonderful to see your brother with you! I understand about childhood memories being on a farm. I grew up in a large farming area, with many family members farmers, including my own being cattle farmers. I recently moved away from decades in the city to east Texas…small towns, LOTS of countryside. Every time my wife and I take a drive, a smile stays on my face, and I’m completely at peace. It never leaves you.
I watch both you and your brother's channel and love them both. The last time I saw my brother I got to spent the day helping him heard cows from one pasture to another, went 16 miles on horseback and had a blast. Getting to spend the day in his life will never be forgotten and is treasured as he was the last cowboy in our family of a long line of cattle ranchers.
Whats Bob's channel?
@@Bucks-vw1lo Bob's channel is Scotland Unplugged.
What a dear family.....caring and love overcome the disasters we have to endure in time... Great to see Robert, love his "Scotland Unplugged" learned much history from his videos.....What's next?? Maybe James to visit the Hoof GP? ❤🐮❤
Very enjoyable ! Nice to meet your brother and happy you guys were able to share the day.
you and your brother are almost twins. I am so happy that you and he had a great time at the farm together. I hope you two do more videos together cause it was really heart warming to see. Thank you for the great video and thank you for the awesome smile you and your brother put on my face and in my heart. God bless you all.
You're a master at combining teaching of your craft and sharing your feelings. It's a joy to watch.
Thanks for showing calves reuniting with mommas 💖
This is beautifully produced Graeme and featuring your brother Bob and Craig too really came across how a family can work so well together. Thank you so much for these wonderful videos and allowing us to share your experiences.
I love to hear y’all talk. I’m from Texas & have a very southern drawl. I’m so glad that y’all got to spend the day together!!
Hi guys, that was an amazing and wonderful video experience. Having your brother there with Craigie and yourself must have been magical. His narrative along with yours really made this video a memorable experience for both of you and me. Thanks Graeme keep doing the great work you do.😊😊😊👋👋👋👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌👌👌✨✨✨
I’m a server and I am in Texas USA, and I served a guest last week from Scotland and when they asked for a flat white coffee I was so confused. I asked you mean dark or light roast and she smiled and said no dear it’s espresso with cream poured over top. I will add I’m not a coffee connoisseur only occasionally do I drink coffee so idk if this is a commonly used term for coffee made like that but I felt so silly not knowing lol….
Good to see you, Bob! Hope this won't be the only time. Interesting to hear your perspective.
I grew up on Long Island, New York. I lived in several places after high school and lost my accent. But whenever I talk with my family I revert to my Lawn Guyland accent and speech patterns. When you were talking with your brother you went full Scotland and I loved it!
Family is good to have around! Great to see Robert recognize all the work involved in your job! Good to see all those Mothers in top shape again and off with their young ones!😀😊
Beautiful to see your brother join you for a day. That's brotherly love.
Mr HooF GP and team. You help lighten my heart with the good work you do for the cows. Thank you. As an old rancher your show re-awakens many good reminders of my time ranching. Bless you and your whole team. Thank you.
I just received my little Kirsty cow. She is adorable. I also got one for my great niece and she loves it. She feeds it and tries to milk her. Thank you so much. I love the videos and can't wait for new ones
Look at that tiny wee calf😍 so heart warming to know this farm keeps the moms and babies together🩵 God Bless these Mamas and their Babies💞
Thats because unlike dairy cattle, beef cattle nurture their calves
Nothing is more important than family. Great to see brothers together!!!!❤
Lots of love from South Africa. Your skills could come in handy this side of the world, world tour???
I love watching your brother's videos of Scotland! I actually found his videos because I'm visiting Edinburg this summer and Google just suggested his videos to me. I didn't know he was your brother until you said go check out his channel a while back! Can't wait to see your beautiful country. ❤
This was a wonderful episode, and nice to see the handsome extends into the rest of the family! Honestly though, loved to watch the two of you together.
What an amotional episode! I'm so happy we got to share this moment with you. I'm so sorry for what happened to changed your happy childhood. Wishing you all a happy year ahead.
This was a great video. It seems like Robert filmed some segments and it was awesome to have a bit more zoomed out view to watch you and Craig work in tandem. Seeing the tools used and hung from a different vantage really showed another piece of the puzzle. Amazing synchronicity. It was also terrific seeing his commentary of being there and seeing it in person. You guys all make a great team as usual.
My new husband and I visited Scotland for our honeymoon. It was in September and decidedly cool, but it felt like home to me. I live literally in a desert a mile high. The air is thin and hot in the summer. 16 degrees Celsius would be an unusual blessing.
I already watch your Bro’s channel.
It's great to see brothers working together. I have had the opportunity to work many jobs with my brother even though we live in different states. We both have the same careers (iron workers) but on the big jobs across the states we find each other. Another great video!!
Grew up on dairy farm in Wisconsin,USA. Many days spent trimming hooves of dairy cows with my dad. He's long gone now and those were the best days of my life. Thanks for the memories.😅
Glad Bob enjoyed his day with our Hoof GP and Craigy boy!
Really enjoyed seeing your brother out with you today ❤
What a talented family, your Mom has to be so proud. Glad to see The Bard went to work with you and Craigie.
Thank you for another fantastic video, best regards to Mrs HGP and the kids.
Love that Bob got to go to work with you. I love his channel too. He has a wonderful voice and should record audiobooks . He is cute to look at too. You too Graeme. :)
It is absolutely terrific to see your brother sharing your enthusiasm for this profession!
What a gift to share between brothers!
I love how Bob said how much was enough (not enough or too much) thats always my concern. I wouldnt want to make it worse but also to be ineffective isn't helpful. Great camera work, and incites. Loved thst your brother came today. Have a lovely day tomorrow.
This was a really fun video! I love that he talked about the smells and things were would not necessarily know about the experience. I definitely didn’t think about the burning hooves with the grinder. What a fun time to have him close. Thanks guys!
One of the greatest privileges in my adult life is having the opportunity to reconnect with my sibling and learn about the amazing, incredible, talented person they are. I never knew as a child to cherish the time we had together, but I think one of the gifts we get in adulthood, if we're lucky, is having the chance to rediscover those moments and share new ones. Glad you had this chance with Robert. Family will always be special.
Such a beautiful day!!! I really enjoyed this video (as I do all of them). Kinda back to the basics and showing us more of your day than just the severe cases. Like Bob you never really forget the farm life as a kid. The smells transport you back in time. A momentary childhood deja vu. ❤😊👍🏻
You guys are doing a tremendous job.
Absolutely love your dialect, love in my ears.
I don’t know how you do it.
The music on your videos is ALWAYS so top notch. Just such a loving, calming, soothing background. You’ve always had that touch on all your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good to see you Gareth and Bob. God bless you all
Just read up on your life. You've gone through so much but have persevered. You are inspiring. I grew up on a farm in western Canada 🇨🇦. Our cows were all pasture raised and luckily none of them required a bovine pedi but I find this fascinating. Just subscribed! Keep doing what you're doing 👍.
So wonderful to see you ❤️ working along side your brother. Enjoy this time, stay safe,
From Canada 🇨🇦 ❤❤
