I love how the cow pauses after she takes a couple of steps and notices the pain is gone. The best are the ones who turn around to look at you, like they're thanking you.

@@VeganV5912 sounds boring, might go get a big mac
I've faced a similar dilemma to the "don't over grow" one you faced here. When I was a kid, I ran outside barefoot after a bad storm. A part of a barn roof had come off, and I stepped on a huge exposed nail. My mom was so mad, and she kept saying that "This is why we wear shoes outside!". Well, we get to the ER and the doctor takes one look at my foot and the nail and says "Good thing you weren't wearing shoes, that could have landed you in surgery". I'm still riding that high five years later!
this literally makes zero sense whatsoever
What did shoes have to do with making it worse?
@@austinbutcher5999 maybe the shoe would've gotten stuck in the flesh or something idk
@@austinbutcher5999 The nail could have pushed the shoe's material into my foot, increasing my risk of infection. As it was, I had to get an x-ray to make sure that the nail hadn't broken in my foot.
@@transsnack interesting! Thank you for clarifying

I don't come from a farming background and, to be honest, have spent my life in the military and in the police, but I have to say that I find this absolutely fascinating. I'm pretty hooked and didn't realise that there were people out there providing such an important service. Keep up the fantastic work guys.
Farriers are seriously overlooked. They are literally supporting the feet of the animals supporting the farming industry. I think people forget that in a similar way to how it's important to trim our nails as people, animals need to maintain their nails and hooves as well. I'm not a farmer myself, but my mother's side of the family are, so I am familiar with the lifestyle. I've noticed that people often take farm work for granted, even though we all benefit from them. Channels like this are really helpful for both education and acknowledging family farms. That aside, thank you for your service as well.
Hey thanks for YOUR important service in the military and police. Luv from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

Me too ,I am still a serving soldier but would love the hoof Master to equip me with basic skills so that I find it easy to fix some problems on the farm when I retire😊😊 let me pray that he accepts.........

🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 Hello from Cape Town
I know it must be so satisfying to you to see the cow walking normally after your work. Then, with it finally being healed after you monitor it, I bet you get a sense of accomplishment and care. it seems like very rewarding work if you ask me and the cows seem content and very well-treated which is nice, after its trim it seemed to just gladly and calmly walk to its designated pen.
*I just watched some guy dealing with a gross, pus-filled cow foot.... and watched the entire video because of the care and genuine compassion he had for the animal. Not sure if I'll watch another one, but it was definitely interesting and heart warming.*
Nice copy pasta dude
Showed me Da while the cow still had the bolt. He said, I quote, "No wonder she was damned lame!! Poor cow!!" End quote. His family had a farm while he was a boy. One of his first jobs was working with the dairyman delivering milk to clients. And he remembers milking with his grandfather. He was impressed with how she walked out of the crush. High praise coming from him Graeme! Of that I can guarantee you!! Stay Safe Everyone!! From Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 💖 🇨🇦 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
Hello Jennifer how’s the weather over there
The compassion is what makes these videos a real fun to watch
Well they are gonna be shot in the head and made into burgers..... So I don't get why are getting do touchy-feely about all this
@@siddhanthravichandran3245 theres always that one person that has to ruin it all. Just because they might get shot doesn't mean they dont deserve to live a good life bruh
@@siddhanthravichandran3245 Not all the time siddhanth, for reasons unknown a young bull was carried over eightyeight kilometers down a river where I live in new zealand. The farmer decided after surviving such an ordeal he'd make a great stud - i.e. that animal will probably eat and drink his fill and 'mate' at least once a day for the rest of his days.
@@SiliconBong yes The only use for bulls is their semen so U can impregnate cows... Or Chop em up for meat..
I’m in agreement with the others here that had no idea watching cow hooves being taken care of was so fascinating and relaxing! I usually watch dandruff scratches, blackhead removals, etc. this is awesome! Great service to the livestock too. Thank you!
I have got to be honest with you...I have watched your channel for 3 hours straight after work for three past few days. I think you do great work, people don't understand how important your job is. Thanks for creating this channel, you rock!!!
I appreciate your honesty about the overgrown hoof being beneficial with that screw. However, if this cow was more routinely trimmed, the screw likely could have been removed earlier.
Well, there is no guarantee when that could have happened. If she'd had her hoof trimmed, and the the screw incident happened a day or so after, she woulda been in big trouble.
Ma questo dipende dall allevatore...
Yes it could have, but farming profit margins are very thin, so you have to be very frugal. You can't spend money on everything you would like, unfortunately. Sometimes preventative measures are cut to the bone (so to speak).
@@castleanthrax1833 surely if we're admitting that farmers don't make enough to properly care for their cows, then we shouldn't be doing it? It's like deliberately having kids you're not prepared for and then blaming your wages when they all get illnesses from malnourishment.
@@NTVT1999 It's nothing of the sort. Many farmers are working "family farms" and doing it quite tough too. There's an old joke, that's quite appropriate :- Q. What's the worst form of child abuse. A. Leaving the kids the farm. Joking aside, many countries subsidise farming to a huge degree. They have to, because they need food. If you don't know what you're talking about, don't comment.
Thankfully this cow was overgrown. While they should be routinely trimmed there is always an exception on where an overgrown hoof could prevent something more serious as in this case. This was one of those occasions where that overgrowth was beneficial for the cow as it prevent something that could have been much more serious.
He has an online class
3:07 is where the screw foot is 😁🤙
I had absolutely no idea that cows needed this much care and maintenance glad there are people like you out there can't imagine that bolt staying in there
I like how honest you are about over growing and problems
Kkkkllkllk
The more videos like this that I watch, the more fascinated I am with both the human body as well as animals. The ability to "naturally" defend against a major foreign object such as that screw is amazing. Love the work you guys do mate.🙏🏻👊🏻
They called it evolution
That machine is so cute..the cows just relaxing dangling
Thanks for helping this animals❤
Random question... but seeing the height difference when one of those blocks are added, is there any risk for joint issues do to the lateral/medial tilt created to compensate for the difference? With all that weight bearing down on their hoof, I'd think it would have a much more significant impact than in a human anatomy
I’m also curious.
I'd guess that as the blocks are not there long term any potential issues are not permanent. Much like with wallets left in a back pocket. If it's not an every day for months your good kinda deal *edit missed a word
The blocks come off literally within a couple of weeks. It's not really there long enough to cause the type of problems you are thinking about.
They're never walking round on a hard, flat surface (except in the dairy) so it's not a problem.
@@lorewolf If I had to guess I'd assume the block is negligible 90% of the time because dirt/grass has so much give to it. They aren't standing on concrete much.
I just realized that you have over one and a quarter Million subs! I was watching you when you had less than 20K, when you were teaching people how to do it. Wow, way to go Graeme. It helps that your videos are so mesmerizing. They walk in lame and leave the crush ACAP.
Was watching the entire video with my almost 6 year old son. He loved it. I just had a great moment with him, where he said. Give a sub to it right after he saw the animation subscription in the video and said right after that: "this is quality content", I was stumped at his maturity. The part that stumped me was that, he wanted "to give" a subscription as a mode of encouragement to the quality content he enjoyed.
It's such a relief to see them out of pain and much more comfortable, you are doing a fabulous job! 👏💜
I hope you know they’re gonna kill it later and not tell you
In high school I went to a country school where a bunch of guys and girls grew up in the farm environment. I was a city girl I have never really had to do hard labor like working a farm. I would want to bring cows into my house if I was a farmer ( don’t want them to get cold or hot). You’ve taught me so much about cows and that it’s like trimming a finger nail or toe nail. Thank you so much for being amazing
" Bunch of guys " well done city girl.

Graham, I'm from Ohio in the US and I wanted to tell you how important you are. I am suffering from a Really bad case of depression and anxiety. It's all I can do to cry all day. Since I have found AND SUBSCRIBED to your channel my mood is changing. The calm of your voice. The beautiful scenery. The love for your life and career and friends and family. It warms my heart and is helping me heal. Even giggle 🤭 sometimes. The wonderful music is so perfect and calming. THANK YOU GRAHAM for being you and sharing your beautiful world. You are doing so much for people by just being you. God Bless. Much love Kate.
Is that funny to you?

@@katekreamelmeyer9951. Hi Kate, I have just reported the Ar**hole who made that cruel and totally unacceptable comment! 🤬 I hope you can ignore the negative stuff that some people feel entitled to put on here. I'm so glad that Graham is helping with your recovery. Depression and anxiety are life stealing conditions. I know as I have suffered myself on a number of occasions. It seems to be genetic in my family having five generations of multiple sufferers. I've often wondered if we have unaturally low levels of seratonin? 🤔 Enough about me, I'm currently doing fine.🤗 Watching You tube definitely helps doesn't it? I think its partly that we're distracted away from our own thoughts, which is really good because they are so totally negative. Living in our own heads when going through a bad patch is not a good place to be but often we don't feel like doing anything, going anywhere, seeing anyone, or talking even to family and friends. Anything that can help distract us from our own thoughts will be helpful. I really hope these small steps keep helping you to gradually get back to where you want to be in life, and you will get there, you're already starting to feel and believe you're getting better. better. You confirmed that by telling Graeme. Thats a big step in itself, so good on you!😍 Have you ever tried mindfulness? I've found it helpful. Its another way of distracting me from my own thoughts. Loads on KZhead of course. We all have to recover in our own way and at a pace we can cope with. Don't ever beat yourself up for not doing things you think you should. Some days will be better and others make us feel like crawling into a dark hole. Don't put yourself under more pressure. Be kind to yourself, don't feel guilty and "don't sweat the small stuff"! Celebrate every victory however small, remember it is still a positive! 🏅😍 Sometimes chatting to a complete stranger can help. If you ever need a sympathetic and empathetic ear, I have two!😁Just remember we are 5 hours ahead of you here in the uk! 😴 I'm off to bed now. Have a good evening watching hoof trimming and the beautiful scenery of the west coast of Scotland "Gods own Country" I love it there, Its a healing place! 🥰. Take care Kate, I'll be thinking of you and sending positive vibes. 💜

This is very therapeutic. Thank you.
It honestly amazes me how little of glue other trimmers use, and their blocks fall off. It’s glue, use it.
Glue is cheap, your time and expertise is not, and don't want to think what the animal value is. Especially when the glue is two parts, where it is mixed, it's going to set off and become unusable anyway

As a carpenter whose grandparents owned a dairy farm I find this addictive. My grandfather was a tough old bloke but loved his kids and grandkids. I used to watch him in his old milking shed. He'd put the cows in the stall then manually wash them down before putting the suction cups on. Then he'd stand there and scratch his cows on the back or around the ears while talking to them gently while they are their grain and mollasses. My grandfather and grandmother treated their cattle with tender care and the cows were so easy to handle and complete relaxed in the shed. They pretty much used to round themselves up at milking time both ends of the day. They had their routine and some would seek out grandad for some scratches or pats and a treat of sweetened grain. At five years old I'd walk in amongst those cattle and the only danger was getting my toes stood on. Unless of course their was a first time mum with a new born calf they can get very protective but of course my grandparents knew every Cow and knew not to put us in danger. My grandmother had a very tough life but was the sweetest most gentle lady you'd ever meet but was as strong as an ox. I fondly remember my girlfriend meeting her when she was 91. Carol shook hands with her and grandma almost crushed her fingers with her tough but arthritic iron grip. Years of digging out weeds and shrub with a pick and shovel and cutting firewood had made her strong.. My grandad was a grumpy old fella but there is no doubt in my mind he was devoted to his family. I miss them both very much and long for happier, simpler times
I stood on a nail once and that went right through my foot so I can totally sympathise with this cow. You do such an amazing job at sorting these big beautiful girls out xx

Hello from Puerto Rico! My daughter (8), and now me too, loooooove your videos!!!!
Great Job my friend of 🐄🐃Bovines🐂 Keep up the Good Work Sir👍
You said that the overgrown hoof helped in this rare case, but I'm curious. Is it possible that, if this cow HAD been routinely trimmed, the screw could have been found earlier and not been a problem then either?
... that's a fair point!
Cows are only routinely trimmed twice per month as per the industry guidelines. So if she'd stepped on the screw a day after a trim and hid the limp, she'd have suffered in silence for months. And even if she didn't hide the limp she'd still have to have waited 2-4 weeks for Graeme's scheduled visit, but in more pain and with a slower recovery ahead of her.
@@DS9TREK So the big thing at that point would be when the screw was stepped on compared to when the last or next trim would be. If it was a few days before a trim compared to a few days after one.
@@DS9TREK genuine question: if the cows get trimmed twice a month, then, even if the cow hid it’s limp- why would it still suffer for months? Do all of the cows get trimmed, or just the ones that seem they might need it?
