My 17 year old cousin was crushed to death by a Hereford bull that he had raised from a small calf. Bulls can be very dangerous, especially when in pain or in fear. Bless your heart for your care of this magnificent animal.
Hand-raised bulls (cattle in general) are by far the most dangerous.
@@cloud5buster honestly most animals, for example Kevin the Emu from wildlife rescue was hand raised and he's got the worst temper out of all of them.
Damn😢
@@cloud5busterwhy?
@@cloud5busterI wonder if it’s because they’re somewhat “spoiled” and feel too comfortable around people.
Honestly not wanting to get close enough to touch an unrestrained animal that could very easily kill you is an understandable precaution
Yeah discreation is the better part of valour as they say!
Well done Graeme fantastic job x
I'm not nearly as impressed with matadors after this!
...❤@@melina001a
My Neighbor got gored by a "gentle" bull a few years ago. She got opened up and nearly died. The Bull did though...died that is.
Had a patient once who got nearly every bone in his body crushed in a chute by a bull. He suffered for several weeks before passing away. Always wise to show respect and extreme caution when working with large animals.
Most bull related fatalities are crushing injuries from being pinned by the bull against whatever....not sure you could pay me enough to get in a pen with any bull, but dairy bulls are the WORST.
That is horrific! The poor man and his family must have suffered terribly. 🥺 I think I'll stick to teaching on Zoom.
That’s so sad and awful
OMG, how horrible, that poor man suffered badly. I confess I'm a city girl & have watched bull riding but I've never seen a bull in real life and they scare the crap out of me.
It seems the hoof composition is much tougher than the cows.
I’m an 80-year old lady. Your channel is as likely as I am to get close to a cow anymore. I’m fascinated by your work, the equipment, techniques, etc. I can understand the cows perfectly well, but are you aware that you have quite an accent? So glad to find your channel; thank you. It’s a pleasure to watch and this last one was remarkable. Great music too. 🎶 Thanks
We are all suckers for a handsome man with an accent aren’t we 😉
Not ALL 😂
Never change maam
I'm 70.
There is a difference between being afraid of and having respect for a creature that could kill you with a kick.
My guy got tossed over the head and shoulders of a bull he'd raised from a bottle. The farmer took it seriously, and no one played with Ferdinand after that! My guy also got bounced off the ceiling of the barn by a cow and ended up in ICU bleeding from every hole in his head. The Vet said a smaller man (6'2" as a teenager) would have been killed. And thus ended the dream of becoming a large animal veterinarian! Safety first guys, always!
@@leeannjohnson1808holy crap????!?!?!
Seriously!
Been kicked many times.....just leaves a big bruise and hurts for a few days.
Agreed ... Respect to the critters and those who work with them.
Bulls are quick, and an injured bull can be exceptionally short-tempered. That took courage, just going in the pen with this one. You handled him well.
A bull on a dairy farm in the 21st century means your repro is terrible.
@@toyotaecw I've seen many AIs not take. They can cost a lot of money for nothing.
My Dad showed his fullback moves getting chased by a huge Brangus Bull. They are quick.
Yeah big boy he is, takes some guts to bevin the same area as that bull, 'gentle' right...that before or after he tries to squish you lol
😂ex
There is a Jersey bull down the road. His name is Rosco. He is about the most friendliest fellow you will ever meet. He was an unwanted yung one about to be put down and the fine folks down the road took him in, gave him a home and we are all the more grateful to have Rosco as a neighbor.
Seen a story of farmer had a-baby bull as pet always friendly after years of puppy dog love , he was found stomped . Bulls should never be trusted
That’s wonderful ❤
Jersey bulls are the most dangerous , so be careful my freind
He still can snap
@@eily_b he's been hanging around with the goats and chickens for years and loves to be scratched and fed grass and what ever you feed him. Maybe because there are no cows around? I don't know. But he gets to walk around the feild and comes back for dinner. Never shown any aggression. He's just old Roscoe.
People constantly underestimate just how stupidly scared cows get and how accident prone they truly are. As someone that grew up working with cows, I love seeing people like you that genuinely care for the animals they work with. Much love from Florida
I read somewhere a while back that more people die from cow attacks than shark attacks.
Bad stewardship to let the cow get into this condition and even worse to keep him there.
@@PlasmicAngel-iw1rw Monday-morning quarterbacking much? Have you ever asked a bull to politely present his hooves to inspect them? The farmer, who you're accusing of neglect with no basis, very likely didn't know the bull had a hoof problem until he started limping, and then he got his farrier out to look at him as soon as he could. I had two horses that developed abscesses several times a year, minimum. I knew they had an abscess when they started limping, but sometimes I couldn't get my farrier out for a week because he already had full barns scheduled. He'd swing by on his way past sometimes, but I was out of luck if he was booked solid for a week in the opposite direction. You have no clue what the circumstances are behind this bull's lameness or how well he's maintained. Since a bull is a very important asset to a dairy farm, I'm guessing no expense is spared on his care. Your assumption that he's neglected makes you sound foolish and tells everyone that you have no clue about large livestock. Side note - I'm not sure if cow trimmers call themselves farriers or if the term farrier is even used in Scotland. In the US, a farrier trims and shoes horses. I welcome input from anyone who isn't completely ignorant and just slinging baseless accusations from behind the keyboard.
@@morrigan908Sounds like an anti-dairy/vegan person with that comment. I say your response was both well articulated and respectful.
Even a big beefy bull is still a prey animal at heart and will react accordingly if it feels threatened.
The knot is called a ‘Figure 8’ here in the USA. It’s is a very versatile knot that is used in Rescue quite frequently.
Square knot
It's also called a Figure of 8 knot in the UK as well. At least it is by climbers such as myself who use it for trying the rope to our harness.
Figure 8 is also the term we Germans use. It is used in various applications. I learned it as a life guard and still use it in the fire service where it’s also part of the curriculum.
@@harryjules369, no
To my uneducated mind, I would have called it a serpentine knot just because it coils across itself, but it being referred to a figure 8 knot does make more sense!
I think it's so adorable that they know exactly where to go up the path on their own!! I was traumatized as a child when a cow attacked me while I was strapped in a chair. Your channel and has helped me get over being afraid of cows. I've actually been trying to walk through the cow barns at the fair lately too. Thank you. I'm Neil. An indigenous member of the Seneca Nation in New York. We owe you so many thanks for your support through out time. It's not forgotten!
How did you get in the chair? Please explain
You were strapped into a chair?! What??
If you don't mind, could you please explain what happened??
Im assuming a highchair @@RachelSings21
This story needs more details shared please lmao.
I have no idea what I'm watching when your videos pop up, but they are fascinating. It's obvious you care for these animals a great deal.
Worked on a dairy farm during my high school days (‘70-‘74) that was across the street from the trailer park I lived in. Boy did I get dirty and stinky but I loved every minute. We had 2-3 bulls in each feed lot and once in a while we would have to help the farmer and the vet to try and corral these huge beasts. Once that was done the vet turned to and did what had to be done. I gained a lot of respect for the bulls but also for the cows. When the cows that were pregnant were moved to the calving pasture, they had a tendency to become a little testy. One of my friends one night thought it might be a good idea to go into the calving pasture and try to pet a calf while the mom was adult 10 ft. away. I tried to warn him but he thought he was quicker than that “big fat cow”. He learned that “big fat cows” can run real fast while protecting their calves. He barely made it under the fence when that cow stopped short of the fence. He never doubted me again. That about 50 or so years ago and I still love the smells of the dairy and LOVE rodeo. God bless Chris LeDoux! (and cows!)
I grew up on a dairy in AZ. I can smell my childhood watching these videos! Brings back a lot of memories for sure! 😊😊😊🐮🐮🐮
I grew up in a small town, it’s now 5000, but in the 70s it was in the low 3000s. I was considered a city girl because I lived a block from an alfalfa field! Lol. I’m still here, I love seeing the farm animals and have had to stop on the highway to let a flick of sheep go by more than once, and stop to let the dairy cows cross the road for milking. I’m all grown up now and still a city gal but now I’m 1/2 block from the alfalfa field!
poor bull looks like he was in so much pain. I'm glad you're able to help.
Ace? Glad to meet one as well!
Me too.🖤🤍💜
Represent!
Funny how all the comments are missing the fact that this is a wholesome comment but SOOOOO interested in the fact your ace. Wow
@@Logabogabo Aces are not usually posting their aceness. We are shy and it's nice to come across other aces. So we celebrate each other.
The very last herd animal you can trust, is one sporting a full set of testicles. Fifty years on, I still carry the scars a stubborn stallion decided to give me. Even an experienced dairy farmer can end up on his back, with a usually cooperative bull kneeling on him, to better work him over with his poll. Thankfully the one I witnessed, survived. The caution Graham is showing, is based on hard earned experience.
Testicles are the root cause of a lot of drama in the human world too.
@@rawilliams5881ROFLMAO…. I was about to say something VERY similar….
We had a baby sheep, a twin boy rejected by his mother. We bottle fed him, mothers him, played with him. When he got older, around a year, his hormones kicked in and everything was a target for his big horns. He knocked me to the ground and came at my face, I grabbed his horns, managed to stand and when he backed up to ram me again, I managed to get up a fence. I was 60 years old. He had his testicles and they did the thinking.
@@rawilliams5881 Soooo TRUE lol🤣😅!!!
@@rawilliams5881Oh my God dude💀
Fans might enjoy taking a look at Tilly's story. An Australian cattle dog bred to move bulls by biting their rear hocks, Tilly is now retired but still as tough as they come. Her owner, veteran Luke Evans and his wife Sam produce a fab KZhead channel called 'The Farm'. Loads of rescued and rehabilitated dogs and Tilly's journey through pain is eye popping. Luke is the best dog man out there, another true expert worth watching just like The Hoof GP. This Bull just reminded me of how brave and fearless the cattle dog is.
Hi, agree . Everybody who loves dogs should watch “ the farm” with Luke, Sam and their 20 rescue dogs!
I know how sharp those blades are, and seeing the force you have to use just to shave a thin bit is a testament to have tough those hoof horns are. Well done!
I'm glad you were ok. This goes to show that safety should be the number one priority. Wish you and the team the best. Keep doing what you do. Really enjoy your videos.
Wow. You guys earned every accolade working with that bull. Safety first ALWAYS! What an awesome job. If that poor bull understood what just happened, he'd be on his knees thanking you! And he wouldn't mind a bit. Graeme and crew, you're the best!
Technically, he was on his knees. We just didn’t realize he was thanking them. 😂
The look in his eyes was more one of "....when I get out of here....." than "thanks, HGP and crew, you rock!"!
Sooo good to see cows that have owners that have such good preventative routine maintenance. Warms the ❤️
I was so stressed for you and the bull. I'm so glad there are people like you doing this kind of important work.
You are the kind of person I love to learn from! The way you educate us random internet folk, and the support/encouragement you offer CraigieBoy, Kevin, and anyone else you work with is really inspiring! I am entering into the veterinary medical field, and though I am not specializing in bovine hoof health, the information you provide is absolutely wonderful to assist in interdisciplinary cooperation in the interest of animal health.
Good luck as you go forward in your education. We always need more people to care for animals with compassion.
The years of experience & treatment Graeme & crew have accrued are going to help you so much in your veterinary studies. Smart of you to learn from him! Good luck!
You basically fitted Mr Grumpy Bull with a neon green stilletto to ease his pain. Good on ya!👍♥
Aw, he seemed very well behaved. What a gentleman. I bet he get's all the heifers.
Do you know what’s made you so popular my love? It’s your voice, your love of cattle, and incredible communication skills. The little accent doesn’t hurt either. All my love from Canada ❤❤
Even in a potentially dangerous situation you are so concerned about the bull’s wellbeing. I admire your compassion and courage while taking on a precarious task. ❤
Bulls can be dangerous. This handsome boy seemed like a nice animal, especially considering that he was in pain. Being scared of the grid on the floor didn’t help and neither did the slippery floors. You did an amazing job getting him into the crush as quickly as possible.
So, so appreciative of these men. Ive no skin in this industry but I do have sympathy for animals that dont realise how not to get into situations.
He is indeed a gentle giant. Confused and uncomfortable and even in pain and yet, showed zero aggression.
Seemed to me that big guy turned towards our good knight, causing him to smack him w/the stick & yell. He had to direct the bull away.
@@ronlee6590 That was confusion. If the bull was aggressive, he would been much more animated and possible even charged.
I believe I saw farming injury statistics that mentioned the most common deadly injuries in the UK occur with cattle….not surprising when you consider how much larger they are compared to people. ❤️🐄
They scare the hell out of me
Well, its certainly not going to be chickens slaughtering people.
@@ManoredRed don’t underestimate chickens…they can be vicious little swine
Think of a 200lb person with size 12 shoes stepping on you......then image an animal 10x heavier on a foot 1/10 the size.
Wow reminds me of a Holstein bull we had mean sob 1968 didn’t have all these cool gadget you have now. It took 6 men and chains to subdue him 2 holes in the barn wall ripped the door off the hinges almost took my uncle’s eye out. Thank goodness for the equipment you have now. Great job you are brave men!!
9⁹⁹😅p
I am absolutely amazed by what you do. I grew up in the Midwest around farms with cows 🐮 and horses 🐎. I was never involved enough to know if the cattle were cared for with as much tender kindness that you display in every single thing you do. I can only hope that the cattle and dairy cows are loved as much here in the U.S. as they are by you! ❤
Check out Midwestern hoof trimmer.
The Bull really was a good boy, eh? Thanks for the valuable work you do to keep all of the animals in the best condition and healthy. With how much the animals provide, respect and care is the least we can give. Well done!
You can tell he's quite a handsome bull. The cows can't get enough of him. 🤣
Quite a magnificent beast!
Having worked with dairy herds and their bulls, people have no real appreciation as to how massively powerful and big they are. One bull that springs to mind was WALKABOUT he got that name because he stuck his head through a 12ft 5 bar gate and went walkabout with both gate posts hanging of each end of gate. Good days.😂😂😂
That is hilarious. Please tell me you witnessed that
@@natd602 we did have a photograph but unfortunately haven’t seen it for some years.
😂
😂
I remember there was one call Old Rock A Walking near Salisbury MD. they named a road after him
You always care so much for how the cows feel, and their pain.
I've said it here before, you can hear and see the care with which you treat your charges, it is heartening to see. May you and yours be safe and stay free.
If anyone could get a bull to do the hokey pokey, it'd be you guys. 🤣 And I do love longer episodes, because I usually get to hear the lovely music at the beginning.
😂🎉😊
True music on this channel is wonderful and a big part of why I love it so much❤
Babes loves it when he hears me singing along! 😊
Seeing him almost break your crush with one kick was nuts. What a powerful creature, glad you could help him out
Begins at 8:30 Poor old Billy standing hock deep in muck. No wonder he's got hoof problems. Fascinating video.
Poor Bull 😢 I hope he gets better soon. Much Love.
I lost it when they used the cow as bait for the bull. "Help me step-brother I'm stuck in the Crush." hahahaha
GP he’s your camera 🎥 man filming everything , well please introduce him to your viewers thank you 😊❤
I second this motion! Lol
I already have but you must have missed him …. He has a fantastic name!!!!! (His name is also Graeme)
@@TheHoofGP hello Graeme
Hi graeme 👋👋
Way to go Craig, nice to see the results from the previous trim!
Cudos to this farmer, taking care of his cows hooves.
We were running our black Angus cattle through the squeeze chute, and the bull decided to raise his head abruptly and hit the crossbar overhead. It split his head open. He had about a 4 inch long and about 1/2 inch deep wound. The vet wasn’t available and the longer he was in the chute the more aggressive he became. So it was spayed with antibiotics real heavy. He recovered quite well but you could see the scar till the day he passed away. You reminded me of that when you mentioned getting hit in the face. People don’t realize just how much power they have. He weighed about 2500 lbs and he was a beast.
Very happy you brought the music back in the videos. Thanks for helping the animals.
I love that this was a longer video and learning about bulls. They are bucky, and even if our foot got stepped on, it can be dangerous. Man, Graem is some kind of magic. Craigie Boy, WTG! What a great trimmer you are becoming. Hope you can rest. What a big job.
First time i cried while you're working on that bull. Thank you for caring
Not a bad bull. For anyone interested, transitions like the one from the bedding to the darker concrete through the gate in the corner can appear to cows, bulls, sheep etc. like stepping onto nothing would for you: you're not sure if it'll hold your weight or is even solid to step on. Hence, they may flee back into the pen. Putting pressure can work, but it is not the best arrangement. They may also slip on the conrete. Add another panel/fence to keep them near the corner opening, and to orient them sideways so they can see you, and you can put the right amount of pressure on them (i.e. your distance to him) to keep him examining the corner without backing out, while letting them relax into taking the step instead of forcing through. A bit of further planning goes a long way towards safety and ease.
I'm glad everyone came out of this ok. Hopefully the crush control will be ok, too. Thank you for working with these beautiful animals. Enjoy some family time. 💚🐃
He's actually pretty sweet considering how well he deals with someone yelling and jumping in front of him and giving him annoying whacks! 😅 He'll probably be in a better mood once he's all healed!
Yep yelling…….
What I was happy to see here, was how attentive you were in regards to the bulls safety and well being, all the while trying to help his hoof problems 🥰 hope he's better soon 🙏
I feel so sad for this gorgeous bull, seeing him scared and in so much pain. Wondering if his area was kept cleaner and not a wet mushy mess if this bull would have healthy hooves ? Seeing his walking on that slippery mess makes me sad and feeling like his environment is neglected. I am happy you could help him and the cows. They are all so beautiful and I wish they had a cleaner environment. I understand they poop and pee a lot and not trying to insult the owner at all. Just curious if the ground was kept dryer and cleaner if the bull would not have gotten these painful issues. Blessings from Florida ❤
Watching you all working with the bull where it’s obvious that none of you are completely at ease with a tonne of agitated beef but where you still remain (mostly) calm and professional just gives me greater respect for you and the boys. It’s when you have to deal with the challenging aspects of the job when your true professionalism shows.
I've been a fan for a long time. This has become one of my favorite videos...I guess because it highlights the extraordinary care and compassion you and your team have for these animals. Good on 'ya! My Scottish ancestors would be proud!
I’m from Scotland too! Paterson is my last name ❤
@@missindependent1973 It's a small world! I think I have a common Scottish last name...but I was born here in a city named Paterson! lol
Bulls are interesting creatures. My late in-laws had a neighbor with a very aggressive bull, who would rush the fence when anyone came near. Then one day, we see our five-year-old daughter, sitting by the fence reading out loud. Then we saw the bull, down on the ground, leaning his head toward our daughter, apparently enthralled. In subsequent visits, the bull would do a happy dance when he saw our daughter, and turned into a one-ton puppy.
Wow. I was on the edge of my seat for the whole treatment for the bull. He did pretty darn well in that holding cage. There you go big guy you'll be right.❤ That's how you give bovine pedicures. HoofGP.
I’m glad your okay. It speaks mountains about your leadership and caring nature by putting your safety at risk before your employees. I’m also glad you’re making videos more often it seems like and adding in some longer ones. Thank you
That’s true for this video, but Graeme also mentioned that Craigie Boy gave this bull a trim a week or two beforehand, on one of Graeme’s days off! I wonder if that was the first experience Graeme’s team had with this bull, and if it was why Graeme made this video. Great skill, good sense and courage required from all.
You wrangling him into the crush yourself reminded me of a starship captain going into the malfunctioning warp core himself, rather than ordering his commanding officer to. I don't think that's great strategy for a ship captain, but it shows your character, compassion and grace of spirit. I hope you'll show an update sometime so we can see how well your amazing glue fares. This is the ultimate test
Thank you for helping him despite your hesitations to get closer with what happened to you. I'm sure he appreciates your efforts in helping him feel better, even through that long process. I hope he heals up well and soon, but he's probably feeling loads better form just the work you've done already. I'm also glad he wasn't very termpermental for you, I think he knew you wanted to help
I used to maintain a couple of hoof trimming trucks 20 years ago. The truck would flip the cow on its side to do the hoof trimming. This system of keeping the cow upright, is fantastic! And the cows seem much happier with it.
I feel sorry for the big boy. I'm glad you got to him and he wasn't too much trouble for you so you and your team could help him.
not being afraid of bulls is one thing, not having respect of them and the damage they can do is another
I’ve been watching your channel for years now and I have just introduced it to my daughter Waiwynn, who is 1. She never sits still to watch a video for long but sat through this whole episode. The HG is a family favourite! Thank you for the great content from Southern Ontario Canada ❤️
Very nice selling one Sad it's already COMOUTING Thankfully we have guys like u Who really support the one
Well, that kept my heart pumping at a faster rate! What a massive animal to be trimming but the farmer must be so extremely pleased that you did it. Beautiful bull. ❤❤
I work with dogs and seeing how livestock needs to be handled is so fascinating. Your love for animals shows. Poor boy was just scared and in pain and didn't know what was wrong. It takes some seriously good people to do what you and your team do.
That bull reminded me of my sweet baby boy, Rocky…. I raised him from birth and until the day he passed, I could go out to the paddock that led out to the pasture, whistle my special call for him and he would come running…. I could put a halter on him and lead him anywhere I wanted him to go… my dad on the other hand, couldn’t get near him… he hated my dad with a passion only a bull could have! He didn’t like my dad getting anywhere near HIS cows lol…. One summer when dad was out trying to work the cattle to get them all dipped and the boy calves "snipped," he comes up into the house and my mum is hollering for him to get the hell out of her house … I walked into the kitchen to see my dad covered in muck (mud and cow poop) standing there at the back door… I just started laughing…. He says to me, "GO GET THAT EFFING BULL OF YOURS SO I CAN GET MY CATTLE WORKED!" I had told him to wait until I got home so I could get Rocky out of the way for him but he didn’t listen and went on ahead of me anyway…lol…. Long story short, I walked out, whistled and Rocky came running…. Put a halter on him and walked him out to the back of the pasture to our favorite spot I used to bring him to when he was a baby… we would sit under the trees and he would,lay down next to me with his head in my lap… absolute craziest thing to see when a 2000 lbs bull has their head in the lap of a 16 year old girl out under a tree… I miss that big baby… he was something else….
How did he die? Did you find him that way? So sad because you must have been devastated. Maybe still am. He sounds adorable. Rocky.
We had a bull like that. Buster. He was like a huge puppy.
@@upstatenewyork Rocky died of extreme old age… we had a large pasture where we put our seniors once they no longer were able to "perform." We never sent them to slaughter… Rocky was 25 years old when he passed away peacefully one night in the fall of 1999… he was a black angus bull and they generally can live 18-22 years but Rocky lived until he was 25 years old… and yes, I STILL miss that big baby… we never had another bull like him… I raised a lot of calves growing up on that farm… but never did I have a calf like Rocky… he would suck on my fingers after he had his bottle and even continued doing that as he grew up…. He always made me laugh after he would come charging up to me like he was going to run me over, but then come to a "screeching" halt and then head butt me and grabbed my fingers into his mouth to "nurse." When we would sit out under our tree in the back pasture with his head in my lap, he would suck on my fingers and fall asleep… I really miss that big bull… he surely was something else… and man, did he ever make beautiful babies!
@@quiltgalsews yep… Rocky loved to play with this giant ball… he would knock it around the pasture and chase it… he also had a thing for the round hay rings… he would get his head stuck in them and then practically destroy them Trying to get out… my dad had to remove every other bar just to keep,him from getting stuck!
I've been subscribed for a few years now... I'm an electrician so no relevance but I find his videos amazing... almost makes me wanna learn how to do this... amazing how he literally looks at each individual hoof of hundreds of animals and reads them like a book... living in Maine in the United States 🇺🇸 if you ever wanna show a country boy how its done I'm your guy 😆 I find the videos almost soothing cause you can almost instantly see the relief of the animal.. keep it up
Anyone else notice the easyfix stalls in the background? I'm not even a farmer and I still got all excited when I spotted them. Lol
Yup - well spotted!!
Man that whole session with the bull had me tensed up as if I was watching an action packed film!!
I'm so amazed by the size difference between cow and bull hooves! He's beautiful and you can see as he loosens up that he's feeling much better already.
Kudos! Great patience and compassion shown towards that ailing bull.
Wow Graeme, what a day. You picked the wrong day to cut down on the coffee! 😉 Glad you're all OK. 💚 🐄 🧡 🐂 💚
That was quite the trim! So glad that you got him out of the crush without him or you being injured.
Just float upon your channel here in the States. I am of the Clan Ranald from 1640. I am of American blood, but only second generation removed from Cologne Scotland. My family started the Largest mill in Cologne gyrations ago. I am James Robert McDonald.
I’ve always liked the sections of sped up routine trimming. This time seeing the cows follow the leader up the race with the other cows being their curious selves was great. It was pure bonus to see them out and over the hill. Excellent camera and editing!
Poor bull. Just imagine how much pain he was in. Your managed to make him feel better. Sweet ❤️
I started working last year at a local sale barn, and I've seen a few owly bulls and cows in the time I've been there. I have a lot of respect for our people back in the pens with those beasts, and this video is an excellent depiction of why.
I am watching this with rapt attention - your work is astounding - the help you provided to this bull has changed his life.
Wow Graham what ingenuity you just did for the Big Fella Awesome!!!❤
That bend is called a “figure 8”. Usually people use it at the end of bends to keep them from loosening.
Exactly right. He forgot his Scout trainng. Half hitch is totally different.
Good job ! I’m glad you didn’t get hurt. Thanks for sharing this with us.
There are SO many different things happening on this earth. I am very grateful, that you guys have gotten expertise and putting your effort into helping animals out of such specific but impactful problems!
First visit to your channel. Years ago we raised Highlands on our small farm in the interior of British Columbia, Canada. Always entertaining to watch skilled tradespeople at work. The Scottish accent is a bonus! Thanks for sharing your work.
That was a very tense situation, both you getting him in the crush, and dealing with everything you found. He's a beautiful creature, I hope he heals quickly.
Who knew trimming cow toenails would be so interesting?😊
I started watching your channel before I found out that I’m 48% Scottish. I think I now know why I loved seeing the beautiful country in your videos and love your accent. You’ve grown so much and you deserve it! ❤
Gosh, started watching you a few years back when you had about 5000 subs! Wow, congrats on the 2 million!!
You said the bull was rocking the crush. I thought it was his heart beating. He’s so powerful. I’m happy you, Craig and the KVP will live to work another day. The farm hand should have had the anti inflammatory shot ready while the bull was in the crush.
Oh love him 🤗 he really wasn't sure where he was going and he was scared. As long as everyone is safe though 🤗🤗
I had a lovely Hereford bull in my youth and used to walk him up to a field where the cows and heifers were and let him stay an hour doing his duty and he happily walked back with me. I was gored by a heifer when tying it up for a vet.
This crew does an incredible job of taking care of the hoofs of animals that massive in size. I loved the video ❤
That knot's called a figure "8". The urgency in your voice, just shows the care and concern you have for these animals. Great work and video as usual guys!
Your safety is #1 … I’ve never trusted a bull knowing how powerful they are… great work as always 🤗
I have been watching Cammy. It’s heartbreaking how many lambs have been lost. I’m praying for him. And I’m going to buy some merch. Now to watch your video.
I was so impressed with your patience and care...the respect for this bull was great to watch. Thank you for sharing.
Wow that was frightening! Glad you and the bull both got through it with no damage! The crush can be fixed! 😅
I love the bulls you feature on your channel!!!! They always have such wonderful personalities!
You do a marvellous job for these animals, you could see how much in pain he was but you worked quickly as possible and in a day or two i’m sure he would of felt so much better, you truly do care for your patients. i’m from a family of dairy farmers and rare breed sheep farmers here in rural Yorkshire.
I’ve been watching you from Russia for a long time. I really like the way you work and the love and respect you have for animals. You and your team are great.
