What is the rationale behind not cleaning a troubled hoof off before cutting right into it? Just curious.
Anything you ask, I'll do. You are such a kind soul ♡
He is a wicked good story teller.
Oh my goodness I am going to be all over your brother's channel I love you both thank you did you help him edit? Much love from Nebraska USA
🙋🏻♀️ Question here!
🤷🏻♀️ Who sharpens your knives?
One thing for certain - Graeme does a great job narrating what we are seeing during his work. Most of us viewers have no experience whatsoever with livestock, yet we all are learning to recognize some very specific details I bet never crossed our minds before. I’m glad most trims are routine and uneventful, which means the cows are well cared for and pain free.
“I kinda missed it” how much I would give to be able to say that about my job when I go on vacation.
"kinda missed it" says while sticking his head next to a hoof covered in shit
I felt that so much...
Nothing wrong with cow shit or horse shit! Cleaning stalls and barns full of animal shit and taking care of farm animals is very therapeutic! You ought to try it sometime. Volunteer at a rescue. 😁
I feel that way about my job, have a degree I don’t use because office jobs make me want to commit a long walk off a short pier….so I went EMS and love that shit.
@@tawnyprovince-ward2353 I would give my left nut to be able to have a desk job, absolutely hate my goddamn life working outside either freezing my ass or sweating like a pig.
Never thought trimming cow hooves can be so interesting... Love the channel!
Welcome to the herd!
One of us one of us one of us
I know I love these videos. It's so cool. I like the pimple popper lary too. So guess it make sense......
yeah same
Dude it's satisfying while one is bored with life! Bahahahaa- educational stupid- kidding!!! Its fun.ok? Ok
i like that he takes the time to explain that lame cows are the minority in most cases. it's easy to focus on the most "exciting" content and assume that cows get hurt a lot at farms.
i also like that he explains how the cows might have gotten hurt and why they generally don't :)
Honestly when i was peeling potatoes last night i was thinking about how good you have to be at that😂 I found myself trying to find a issue in the white line of the potato.
I see potatoes with every hoof!
@@susancary510 thank god its not just me 😂😂
might be a good way to practice hoof trimming maybe freeze it slightly so it mimics a hoof kinda?... but obviously gotta be careful :)
Brilliant
Ooohh i just looove digging those eyes out of my spuds!!
I live in the ghetto streets of New Zealand , Auckland, this has been my gateway for 4 months , now I’m 2months sober . Free from all substances, stress, crime. Pure music , love n soul n alll videos 🙌🙌🙌🙌
It is good to see you trim "normal" cows. I love to watch you fix those in trouble but still nice to see that most are just needing a trim. Well done sir
often the music on this channel gets me teary eyed. something about the wholesome activity and the painfully sincere lyrics in combination just gets to me
I really like seeing healthy feet mixed in. I’m having a horrible health scare and stuck in bed and these videos are really calming, also so different than anything I usually deal with. seeing his incredible work and these healthy animals make me happy. Plus the hoof GP is so positive and passionate about the animals !
Wishing you better soon. I stumbled on this channel and am totally hooked
Not in a million years did I think this would be something I’m interested in, super interesting and calming
She couldn't wait to try out her new hoof model she was off like a shot.Another satisfied customer. Well done you.
Or cow-stomer, I'll stop now🛑
She lookin like a tasty 🥩

that "say that you wont go" song in the middle of the video was really relaxing, your videos always have matching soothing music, thanks graeme
I just searched it on TH-cam. It's by Loving Caliber and Say That You Won't Go is the correct title.
Graeme is the best hoof trimmer! He's the only one I've seen that actually cares about the animal.
You can tell that it's not just a job with him.
The only one that cares about the animal? I think the most hooftrimmers care about animals! Otherwise they didin't became a hooftrimmer!
He takes his time to do it properly while others just rip through the process as if they're digging the ground.
Graeme and Craig show that they really care about the cows first and foremost.
@@hindrickstrampel9433 they might just mean as far as TH-cam trimmers go. There are some SCARY channels out there. Some trimmers look like butchers, to be honest.
You've seen others? I didn't know this was even a thing before finding this channel
@@evalevy2909 yes there are many that do this online. But there's only one Hoof gp!
Watching how calm the cow in treatment is, and how delicately you place your knife, really shows the cow's relief of pain. Good on you, sir.
So good that you got to take the two weeks off to “recharge your batteries” and I’m guessing, spend some quality time with your family. I’m hoping you went somewhere scenic and will share some of your amazing drone shots. But I’m always happy to see the work you find so satisfying, helping the “ladies” (and occasional “gentleman”) live a more comfortable life.
I literally have no idea why i enjoy seeing trimming hooves so much. You sir are on a level of your own. Well done
Graeme don’t change a thing, not your music, personality or anything you do. I look forward to your videos and learn something from every single one, also love your playfulness. Don’t tell Craig but I like him too 😀
Please do change the shit music actually. Totally doesn't fit and it's terrible.
I agree on the music, lyrics distract from what you're doing, I prefer the instrumentals you used to use, same basic style and feel, but no lyrics.
Ehh... you sure he couldn't change the music?
Who is singing..like his voice and song
YES, Graeme, please tell us who the musical artist is in this video. I liked this song.
I love the sound of the knife slicing through the hoof! It is just so satisfying 😇😇😇😇
So,, who else would ever have thought that watching hoof trimming to great music would be so relaxing?
Your Bro posted a pretty good video today. Thanks so much for pointing him out! If people haven’t watched him,, they should!
The music makes such a difference! When I watch other hoof trimming videos I always feel like there’s something missing
Who is your brother?
I absolutely love it!
@@Winner4HIM
It’s called Scotland unplugged… go watch it. Funny as hell, very dry sense of humor. Along with a bit of history!
@@Winner4HIM There's another brother too on TH-cam. James Parker Sculpture
After getting hooked on your channel I’ve watched some other trimmers and your videos are leaps and bounds better than others. The only one close is Aaron Lavoy. And don’t shut up! You are giving interesting explanations and many of us adore your accent. I’m from Texas so I don’t have an accent.🤣🤣🤣
The last bit is especially funny.
An American with a sense of humour! Hurray, welcome!😆
Texan with no accent.....should we call it a drawl then? I was thinking the same thing...DO NOT shut up. So interesting. I'm Long Island, NY. We have lots of cow farms but this is the first time I've actually looked for something like this. Will have to look at the other guy you mentioned. Some of these youtubers lucked out with quarantine.
Hey NY. I love it there. I used to go to NY state to do teacher training and everyone loved my accent. I told them I don’t have an accent and they would laugh. I used to get in trouble though for using ma’am and sir. Eventually I started training sessions explaining that I use ma’am and sir even with my students so please don’t be offended.
@@terriv9002 Why would people get offended by you calling them ma'am or sir, just giving people some courtesy isn't it?
Sitting in my room with my chamomile tea enjoying yet another good trimming video! Truly educational and the music is quite enjoyable. You rock @thehoofgp.
I’ve had a stressful day. Nothing puts it right like a session with the Dr. The hoof Dr.
the music on your channel is spot on..
This video is exactly why I still watch the Hoof GP. It's not just the learning part on lame cows, it's watching the trims on the routine trimming. I sure would love to see more of your beautiful country side! Have a blessed day.
Graeme, you are by far the best hoof trimmer on TH-cam. You're the most informative, entertaining and just plain fun. I appreciate you, your efforts, your professionalism and your video. You're the best!
Jerry, retired marine engineer, living in central North Carolina. Thanks again.
Thank you for showing normal, healthy, routine trimming. It's nice to see what normal dairy cow feet should look like.
I love your work. It kinda calms and relaxes me. I love your soundtrack. The music is wonderful.
Perfect music, perfect trim. Excellent service Graeme! Have a lovely week! ☺️🐄♥️
yay ! You'r one of the TH-camrs who release videos in such a good quality and relaxing vibe that i use to "clock out" for a short while. I know nothing about hoof trimming except from what you have taught here on the channel. I develop software robots for a living, automating platforms and it's a constant problem solving like nonstop to integrate systems that are not built to talk to each other, so having your videos with something so different from what I'm used to and such a good quality is great!
I'm not a farmer or anything like that I just find your videos very interesting and informative. I think you do a great job taking care of your cows hoofs. Keep up the amazing job! 👏
Graham, you seem like a really Awesome & nice guy that cares for his family, the farmers & the animals. God Bless you my friend.
I giggled a bit when you said you were on vacation but you missed your work. My husband and I owned a swimming pool service company and retail store for years. The few times we were able to take a bit of time off we would seek out other pool companies wherever we were just to chat shop, etc. Glad you enjoyed your time away and welcome back
I have absolutely nothing to do with cows/farming. But--I really love animals and enjoy seeing you making their lives better. Best wishes from Texas!
I have been watching you for 1-2 years. Now I want to be a hoof trimmer 😅 you have inspired me to be one. I hope you have a lovely day/night/evening/morning 😁
The most relaxing part of my day is The Hoof GP.
I like hearing you talk , it means that you know what you are doing and it lets us know how much you care for the cows .
I love watching your videos especially how you explain everything involved with the cows hoof. Keep up the excellent work.
My friend, you are making this world a better place with your work!
I truly think you should don a cape because you honestly are a super hero. Live you for what you do. 🐂👍
GP, special video. Great reminder that your masterful work keeps the vast majority of the cows free from hoof harm and very healthy.
Your passion comes through each video. Tell the wife and kids hi for us, from Texas!
Becoming addicted to these videos after TH-cam sent me here out of nowhere makes me feel like TH-cam might know me better than I know myself 😂
My 3 year son picked this. It's his 1st time watching The Hoof GP. He plugged his nose when he saw the 💩 on the 🐄 foot lol.
I'm glad you reiterate how that the cows you show are the exceptions not a common occurrence, keeps in perspective how the farmers take care of the herd
It's not the beer that makes me emotional is you helping us animals any man can happen and God has got to try this hard on you
Love your background music. I could listen to it all night
I have watched other youtube trimmers and even as someone with no real world experience with cows or trimming it's clear how much better at it then most people are, and how much you care about the cows feet getting healed.
I put my ear buds in sit back and listen to Hoof GP. Love the music and your voice. Keep the videos coming please!
Music: loving caliber
Hello from Baltimore Maryland., hope you and all your family and friends and 🐄folk are all doing ok and safe from all the heavy rain and flooding ! Love your channel😍
Aww, you found a love song 🎵 from the cows to you. They missed you while you were on holiday. 😊😁 ((great song))
Hey. Would you perhaps know the links to the songs?
@@yntobongwana5070 Hi there, Graeme used to have a Playlist on *his* *community* page? It looks like it may have been taken down due to copyright issues, I'm not sure. BUT ask Hoof GP! 😊
@@grammiecopper9024 okay thank you so much. ☺
You are an amazing human being mate I watch your videos in awe and lots of respect. Bless you
Graeme: "I've got to shut up and get on with this trim."
HoofGP's audience: *Noo! Explain more please! You've explained roughly, now details please!*
Agree - we like detail
Keep talking, we are all listening!!!
Definitely agree love hearing @The Hoof GP explain his process. Ngl the accent is easy on the ears too. 😸😋
@@seberustwentythree23 this! The info… and his voice is so nice!
Agreed!!
I like to see the routine trims without lameness. It shows that you guys and the farmers are working hard to keep them healthy and pain free.
I look forward to your videos! Thanks for sharing what you do!
I love these sorts of videos where we aren’t just looking at problem hooves. For me it’s relaxing just watching the routine trims too!
Welcome back and hope you and your family had some wonderful well deserved vacation time.
I love the normal trims too. It's so calming.
This is not a job, this is passion. God bless you man 🖖
I could listen to you talk all day and night, the low tone and lilt in your voice is calming to my soul
Good to know that most of your cows are not lame but just need a light trimming.
I find it so fascinating how much care you take in your "job" that looks more like a hobby! Things people do because they enjoy doing them are called a hobby, things people do because they have to are a job. Work is work but it's nice to enjoy what you do AND make money. Entertaining us all in the TH-cam world, at the same time helping Earth's bovine blessings to stay healthy, comfortable and happy...what a great "job" to have!
I feel like I could be a hoof trimming professional now, and I'm all the way out in Long Beach California and we don't have cows in my city 🤣 but if we did I could do it!
Just be sure to remember that you can’t smell what’s in the video
@@steveairport haha, that poo man, that liquid poo. Oof!
Great attitude, but remember that seeing isn't the same as doing. Even if you "know" the basics, it's completely different executing them.
....I'm aware. I wouldn't touch an animal with tools until I've had proper training. Thanks anyway smarty pants.
@@mamasatanlbc 😀👍
It's fine to keep talking and explain what you're doing. You didn't have to "shut up and get on with it". Idk about other people, but I watch these videos to relax and go to sleep and the talking helps in sort of a soothing way.
That most definitely is one nice thing about having a job you love you could take your holiday / vacation and when you get back to work you're happy and look forward to it
You ROCK Graeme! thanks for sharing, take care and God bless
When you miss your work like you miss your spouse you know you've found your spot in life.
Keep doing your good work Graham and hope you had a good holiday.
I never realized how much these videos taught me until my friend sent me a hoof trimming clip and I was able to explain to her what he was doing and why. So thanks!!
You make me wish I was a cow 😂 cos the care you put into your job is so incredible to watch 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Good to hear you had some time away from the daily grind. Great video. She was out of there looking & walking good.
Graeme, thank you for the perspective of routine trims compared to the manky.
Ya fixed another one! Good job Graeme! I’m thinking she feels a lot better. She sure walked like she did!
She's looking good! Never shut up, I love your accent!!
I learn something from you in every video.
Love your videos, keep up the great work! Sending love from Florida!
Glad you got away to re energize. Love you channel, your a great teacher!
I’m so early!! You make me wanna do this stuff for a living it’s so satisfying and I like helping animals.
Well, it makes me want to go inspecting cow's hoofs in my area....lol
I am so impressed by how casually you hook the back legs with the metal hook on the rope thing. It's just so effortlessly professional
Very interesting and informative. I never ever knew this job existed. I enjoy your videos.
In addition to your great trim work, your soundtracks are so calming...enjoyable show...
Why are these videos so satisfying & addictive!!??!!
The Hoof GP should have a music playlist on Spotify!
I think you mean moooosic 🐮🤷🏻♀️😂Wonderful idea, let’s hope he sees this👍🏻
Agreed! Took some sleuthing to find the song that started @2:55 - th-cam.com/video/0ja4RThokCo/w-d-xo.html I love it and his opening song, I finally created a TH-cam playlist just for songs he uses.
@@MikeT-TheRetiredColonel that’s very kind of you👍🏻
Or just search the hoof gp playlist and it pops up...😊😊
The Herd have missed you too but, glad you got some time off! When I get a notification of a new video, I make myself wait til bedtime so I can relax and watch you trim to your awesome music! So satisfying and I even love the routine trims, I just love watching someone who knows what they’re doing, work! I mean, it’s enjoyable to watch highly skilled people use their skills!😁💕🇨🇦
Why do I enjoy watching this so much??? I don’t have cows🤣🤣love it
Never thought I'd be watching hoof trimming videos before bed each night to get me relaxed
Graeme, question. Was the red and blue ribbon thing around her right front leg put there by the farmer to let you know that something was wrong? Or, does it have another purpose?
to check if shes in heat it counts the steps that shes making and if she makes double of steps in a day dan she is in heat
i am not good at english sorry
If they are what I think they are, then theyre accelerometers. Devices which can measure how the cow is walking and help pick up on any issues or changes.
Gait analysis is becoming a really big thing in agriculture. IceRobotics are one manufacturer/researcher I'm aware of from my time at uni
Blue with the block serves most of the time 2 purposes. 1st is a ID, so the parlor computer know who she is, 2nd as mentioned below heat detection...
Red is kind of universal in the dairy industry for waiting time milk. You can milk in a separate container but you can not sell it, due to treatments with antibiotics (which are not to be given willy nilly)
Any other colours are farm specific, like yellow is a heifers and she need training in the parlor. Green maybe don't rebreed, cull cow. The list can go on. It came to be like this because to be frankly honest the farmers (as humans) would lose track of the cows
Lengthy but hope it helped
@@blue_boy8621 Interesting. ha ha I thought maybe it was an ankle bracelet and she was on house arrest for running around with the bulls or jumping curfew. :0D
Another great video. Your explanations are always well done. No need to worry about the length.
Is it possible that you could have some old Scottish songs while doing your work, so we get to take part of that culture as well?
Yes+
That does sound cool. I do enjoy your current musical choices as well, though. I trust you to choose!
@@TheHoofGP Can we have Donald Where’s Yer Troosers? 🏴🏴🏴
I like when you explain things. So glad you had a vacation
I like seeing the "normal" maintaining of the hooves. You go through it so quick. Why do you do the half-moon on the inside of the hooves again?
@Sufiya H. AAAAHHHHHH...Makes total sense. I wish I had common sense sometimes. Thanks!!
The hoof gps’s music selection is absolutely beautiful I wish he credited some of these songs in the description so I can listen to them myself lol
Love the title. “That’s what HE said!” 🤣😂
I love the music you have to accompany your videos!! The opening song and the rest of the music is so great for relaxation ☺️☺️
Man I'd love to get a mani pedi every 2-4 weeks, these cows are living the fancy life 😂
If you’re ever in Appleton, looking for a new or upgraded chute, I’d love to buy you a pint! Thanks for caring for these cows - and being so inspiring!
You should wear hearing protection as well, Graeme. That grinder is loud!
WHADA U SAY????? I cant hear u??🙉
I love this channel. You have so much enthusiasm for your job, family and Scotland which is incredibly beautiful! Beautiful scenery! I’m in the USA in California which has its own beauty and the sun always shines! Keep up the good work, awesome channel.
I seem to remember that the YELLOW discoloration usually means that there is something wrong below. So I assumed it'll go further than "just" the whole we saw at first.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. You make my day so much better 💕
I wish you would explain when you do or don't wrap up the hoof after you apply a medication and a block - thanks!
Typically if there’s bleeding. The magical paste or powder help dry up the area and form a scab over the wound to let it heal. The same way if we get a scrape, we’ll put some cream and a bandaid over it to give it time to heal.
The corrium that he always talks about is what forms the hoof horn. The same way we have a nail bed that forms our fingernails and toenails, and continuously grows out from there. If you break your nail in the middle, it’ll hurt but not cause much damage or pain. If you rip your entire nail off or cause injury to the nail bed at the base, you’re going to do a lot more to it to help it heal correctly and keep it protected from outside elements.
@@SandrA-hr5zk Thanks for explanation! Makes sense. I was just worried about additional damage/infection as they hoofs look like they get quite dirty on the farm.
@@chrismarcellus6933 He says often that the wrap isn't going to keep it clean and isn't meant to. It's more just when there's some kind of paste he's treating it with, to keep the paste from just falling off as soon as the cow walks off.
@@junbh2 Thanks for the reply. I have watched a lot of his videos, and I guess I misheard concerning the wrap. Thanks for the clarification. I will pay attention more often :)
Thank you hun for what you do and your videos.
