That’s a Great way to see through learning a trade…I am going to apply that to many of the young Men I am training in oil and gas maintenance…Cheers to you and your GrandFather for the view point, and passing it along👊
@@user-se5zz3yj9c the funniest part is I worked for my brothers Plumbing company, I took care of emergency calls and he said this to me so many times when I was waist deep in water or being soaked by a busted pipe but his little twist was “if it’s not broke you don’t learn anything and if you break it you’ve learned what not to do and how to fix it”. My whole family were tradesman and soldiers.
My dad and I don’t see each other much, because he works all day and i am at Uni. Almost every evening we sit together and watch one or two videos on RUclips together. That’s our father-daughter-time we get to spend together and we cherish it very much. I recently showed him your account and now he asks for your videos almost every evening. He has nothing to do with technology and such, so when i found him on the couch today when i came home from uni I couldn’t believe my eyes when he sat there with his dusty, old laptop watching your videos. Thank you for your content. My dad and i really enjoy to learn about your job!
It's great to hear that the Hoof GP is a way for the two of you to connect, and hopefully foster more growth in your relationship. After discovering the Hoof GP, I ended up expanding my subscriber list to a whole variety of farming content from over in the British Isles! (I'm in the States) Some of my favorites are Adrian on iFarmweFarm, Cammy on the Sheep Game, and Tom on his Tom Pemberton farm channel. Thanks for sharing your story, and all the best with your studies. Cheers!
Thank you for this comment - I have a daughter who I love beyond belief but don’t get to see, giving you this gives me more than you could think it does ❤
I wish my dad was alive and I could spend precious moments with him. 😢. You are a very lucky soul. I politely envy you two. Blessings are going your way for a long blissful time forboth of you.
So, I made the mistake of cheating on you guys with another cattle hoof trimmer on RUclips. 🥴 It was definitely not worth it and nothing like being with you guys. His voice was not nearly as soothing and the trim just wasn't as pretty or inspiring. I'll stick with you guys from now on, no more cheating! Love from Florida!!❤🍊
When watching shorts the algorithm will show me another hoof trimmer but I find my self telling them they doing it wrong an not like graham of Craig 😂😂😂
Honestly Graham, six weeks and the block is still on!?! That is a genuine testament to your product! I've watched you (and been subscribed, BTW) for years. I have no farming/ hoof trimming affiliation. I just genuinely adore cows. ❤ 🐄❤ Videos from your past, and, ur...... "other" hoof trimmers..... have used "glue" that it is lucky if you get a few weeks out of block before it falls off. Leaving sore cattle in a lurch before their next trim. Your "Green Glue" is genuinely something above and beyond in hoof treatment. Thank you for all the cows that don't have a voice -> you've heard them loud and clear! Thank you @TheHoofGP for all that you do! ❤
This message is for Craig: I think there's room right now on the GQ list for you! You have become a confident, well groomed gentleman, and you know how to do your job well. Your confidence is seen in your eyes! And it's a fair dare to say, you're a good husband too! Graeme has come into his own with his hard work, and so have you. You both are each others' right hand man! What a beautiful thing to see: a good team such as you are. You both set a sterling example for others to follow, whether it's in hoof trimming or another avenue of life. Well done, well done......

I am 68 y/o and have consumed dairy and beef all my life. About half my years were lived in rural areas surrounded by farms. And I am absolutely ashamed about how little I know of what everyone does at these farms. My knowledge was like ok in the barn for milking and then back to the field. From choosing the correct feed, to putting down mats for the cows comfort and..hoof trimming the cows. I know hoof trimming is common for horses but it never crossed my mind that it was so vital for the cows and farmers. Your videos have been very instructional to me! Thank you!
Graham does an incredible job. I watch to see the cows. Some of the faces look just like some of my old favorites. They are sweet animals. I'm an old dairyman from Oregon who last milked in 1986. At that time there was no hoof trimmer I knew of that had the capability of the Hoof GP. All the repairs you see here I had to use the vet. So the Hoof GP is saving his dairies a lot of money. If a cow's feet hurt, they don't walk to the feeder enough or graze properly. So less milk. And the trimming tables and crush in my time didn't have cow comfort in mind. The ones that put the cow on her side scared the heck out of me. Milk production was always down the next day because of the trauma. It's easy to see the result of experience of trimming and treating thousands, maybe millions of cows. And the don't forget the occasional bull. Absolutely great work and teamwork!
I have to admit it . Who ever is in charge of the music for your channel needs a raise :) I love every song you play during your episodes. They match well with the visual. Keep up the great work . Ya mate from Australia
I‘m quite certain your father would be absolutely proud of you. You’ve got so many people here in the comments, myself included, who will probably never have learned anything about hoof trimming if it weren’t for your videos. I really can say that I came across your account more or less by accident, and I’ve enjoyed watching you work more than I would ever have imagined. Keep up the good work and all the best from Germany 🙏🏼
Graham you made me cry this evening! I to think of my long gone father! I am confident that your father would be tremendously proud of the man you have become! I know at 64 i am still a work in progress and i pray my father can see the work i have put in over the years and be proud of me too!!!! I enjoy videos so very much!
I got my "One Herd, One Family" shirt today in the mail, and I couldn't be happier! Thanks to all of you that make this all happen. Your messaging and positive outreach is SO needed, as you can tell by its success. Family, community, unity, love & support are the best things to share and nurture. You emote that in all of your videos to include the beautiful animals you work so hard to care for. I couldn't possibly love it more, but I'm sure you'll find a way to make even that possible. Big hugs and thanks from my spot in middle America. One herd, one family. If everybody could feel more of that, the world will be in such a better place. Thanks again.
One more comment here. I think they’d be proud of you. Not only for your great ability to take care of these cattle but because you are a great person as well. It just flows from you. You’re a good man and that is what they would be proud of as well.
I've been subscribed to you for a while and this was such a beautiful insight into your thoughts and memories of your father. Sorry to hear you lost him so early in life. May he be RIP. 🙏 I do believe he's proud of what you've done, from where you started. Watching you help these cows and making this process as easy on them as possible, along with yourselves, is such an honor. And the pride you take in the job you do is amazing. Thank you for sharing your story. Much love from Massachusetts!💗
My sister and her husband have a dairy farm with 1800 cows. I moved to the cities back in the 1980s, but watching your videos brings me back home. You've done your father proud.
What you do for these cows is nothing short of medical art, you're so careful and skillful with your work. Even when it doesn't work out, that is no knock against you, you clearly do the best you can, always. Cheers from Michigan.
Thank you for sharing all the details and information while working. I have to tell you I watched an older video of you working on Bulls. You relieved that bulls abscess that you really didn't know it was so massive!! And when you were done you walked out with the Bull to see how he was doing and walking and I seen that Bull turn around and looked at you like he was THANKING YOU FOR HELPING HIM!! I ACTUALLY CRIED! I CRY FOR THESE ANIMALS A LOT!
After viewing all manner of videos of cow hoof wrapping on RUclips, I must say that Craig is one of the neatest and most thorough wrappers of hooves! 🐄 The cows must delightfully benefit from his expert handiwork! Way to go, Craig!!! ❤👏🏻❤
I’m not a farmer, I have no idea how to take care of cows. I came across your channel a couple years ago seeing a puss filled cavity. That was the only thing I was interested in. But your love for these beautiful animals has made me appreciate the work you do. The care you give to them is amazing. Thanks for showing us an average day now and then. And please keep up these wonderful videos.
I lost my mother a little over a year ago. It's always hard, losing a parent, no matter how long it's been. I respect you for caring so deeply for these animals.
Sorry to hear buddy. I lost my dad recently - I know what it feels like, wanting to tell everyone and anyone that will listen. It gets easier. I promise.
Graeme, I am so sorry you lost your dad. He was far too young as were you. I know he would be proud of you and all you have accomplished. Keep up the amazing work! You too Craig and Kevin!
❤ Agreed he's done so well.. Look how fabulous his home is, but it's annoying people are just turning up there. Respect folks, his family as nice as they are should not have to tolerate intrusion from strangers. Have some respect. Graeme should not have to be worrying about his family's security while he's out there working.
Your dad and step-dad would both be amazed at the progress in hoof trimming - and they’d both be so proud of you. The glue you helped engineer is holding untold blocks on healing cows. Keep up the good work!
One of my brother's best friends lost his father in high school, very suddenly-- but he had all of the rest of his friends and my bro to lean on, and while the pain never went fully away, it doesn't ping that deep, deep sense of loss as often. Farmers and agricultural workers that have been at it for generations like you can be so under-appreciated, but you, and your father and grandfather can be appreciated here, where you're carrying their memory and their work on. I grew up in a suuuper rural area of New Jersey, went to school with the farm kids and they were some of the hardest workers I knew-- helping out before the bus picked them up in the morning and keeping at it after they got home.
So sorry for the loss of your dad. I too lost a parent at a young age (my mom) at age 15. And know our parents are watching over us as we do our best to make them proud. I love watching your videos they are so relaxing. Thanks from the United States 🇺🇸 ❤
you're father would be very proud of your doing .. doing what he has loved for all these years and even sharing it with the whole world is something he could've only dreamt of !!
I’ve been subscribed since about 40k subs. Watching your journey, the growth of your team and the success of your channel has been inspiring. Thank you Graeme, Craig and Kevin. Ashley, good job Generaling these guys!
I think both would be proud. Your stepfather especially would be proud of how you've taken a craft he taught you, started a business, and then made that business grow.
I appreciate that you share a bit about your dads and what they did that encouraged you to do what you do and love it and the girls (and a few boys) that you care for. When I was a little girl, my dad bought 2 calves. A Jersey and a black Angus, Bobby and Buttercup. The Jersey, so we could make our own butter and have fresh milk. She was mean, so dad got rid of her. My brother charged the neighbor boys 25¢ to ride the steer for bull riding practice. When we butchered him, his meat was sooo tough! My dad and brother cried when they shot him and we all cried when mom first served us hamburgers, knowing it was Bobby. Dad took the meat all nicely packaged to a very large Native American family that we helped alot. The father told my dad that was the best beef they had ever tasted! I guess because they didn't love Bobby like we did!
Your attention to the cows is un precedented Graham, I watch your videos and always feel better about the day. Your videos are amazing. It reminds me of being on the farm when I was a child, I never thought I’d look back with the fondness for a simpler life. God bless!
Your stepfather and father would both be so proud of who you've become. Your business is going great and you are a great teacher. Your whole team works well together. You all show caring and compassion for all the animals you treat.
U mentioned your step father was a hoof trimmer. Did u work with him? U r so compassionate with these cows. U do a fantastic job. It’s very important that u enjoy your work. We can tell that u do. I’m retired working medical clerical positions at a local hospital. I enjoyed my work. God bless u & yours Graeme. Rose from Norfolk-VA Beach,VA USA
4:04 hoof trimming is good for the soul--and the sole! What a huge difference it makes for the cows. Imagine having to bear all that weight on an unhealthy hoof, when suddenly a knight in a green crush starts helping relieve your horrible pain. Thanks Team Hoof GP!
Graeme, I do believe your Father & Step-Father would both be so proud of not only the hoof trimmer you are but the man you've become. Its quite evident the kind heart you have & the good work you do. 💚 🐄 🧡 🐂 💚
Thank you for existing. Your videos get me through the day. Being bi polar these videos calm my anxiety and give me a reason to waznna continue to live
I love your channel that I can’t watch any other hoof channels. You guys are #1 in my book. Not to say the other channels aren’t good but, I love the care, and compassion you guys have as a team!!❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing your dad and step dad passed, they are both looking down on you and are so proud of you and all your doing. I lost my mama 14 years ago and I still miss her all the time. 🙏❤ I am so sorry for your losses
I think if you're father could see you now he would be so incredibly proud of you Graeme, your passion and dedication is absolutely undeniable, all of your achievements and experiences would no doubt make him incredibly happy, he definitely has family with our community here as well, sending all the love, keep doing what you do because you're the light of so many people's day and i cannot wait to continue this journey with you.
I’m a city girl and the closest I’ve ever gotten to a cow was to pour a glass of milk. But I cannot get enough of your videos. You have such a good touch with them and it amazes me to see how much their feet can really get in trouble. It makes ms sad to see that. But I’m so relieved they are in your tender care. You rock!
It's funny to me when the cows enter the crutch and think they're going to pass through but then immediately get met with the gate and stop instantly hahaah
I truly believe both your father and stepfather would be extremely, extremely, extremely proud of not just what you've built out of nothing but also of the husband, father, friend, just the man you have become. Please keep up the amazing work and care you do.
When you were a wee lad, what would you have thought if your dad told you, “son, one day the whole world will know your name”. I think he’s pretty damn proud of you.
Your Stepdad would definitely be so proud of you. Your videos show how caring, how talented and how charismatic you are. As a mom of 3 any good my children do I am so proud of you. You are a kind human.
It’s always sad to see these beautiful creatures with wounds anywhere, you do such good works,sir! You are the voice for these sweet creatures and I thank you for what you do to give them relief!❤
Your father and grandfather would be so PROUD OF YOU !!!!!!! I love the music that you play with your videos and also your calim voice.😊God bless you and your family
You and your crew/family are so caring and compassionate with what you do thank you for letting us all get the chance to watch you help and take care of the cows. ❤
When are we going to address the real issue : poor farm animals who stand around in their excrement all day are obviously going to have this chronic problem?!?! 🤦🏻♀️ do they ever get out to pasture? Or have different kinds of surfaces under-foot (hoof) so that this rot due to stagnation wouldn’t happen?! Am I missing something here?
Obviously you need to educate yourselves where these cows are concerned. Cows do not spend their lives standing on concrete. Many live outside in the pastures close to year around. Plus, farmers use a rubber covering over the surfaces in their barns to make it more comfortable for the cows to walk. The misconceptions of how cows are treated needs to be addressed. Most farmers treat their animals very well.
He'd be proud of you. You're helping animals and farmers alike. You have a family you love and a job that you enjoy that supports them. You employ others, meaning you help other families put food and necessities on the table. And with these videos, you educate and entertain. He'd be proud of you, man.
I’m a disabled vet and for some reason I can’t explain watching you and your boys work, along with the music, is extremely calming for me. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you!
i was saying to a friend today that if you need work done (any kind) find someone that is passionate about whatever it is they do, you guys are the embodiment of that work ethos. i had returned a log splitter that they couldn't start, i spent maybe 90 minutes on it and rectified several small issues, it starts super easy now every time now. i know the chonda engines like the back of my hand and love to get them running.
I'm sure that you father would be very proud of what you have become.i'm watching your videos from Quebec, Canada. You & your team are very good at what you do. Keep up the great work 👍🐄🐄
That is an impressive amount of teamwork, to be able to do basic trimming in such short order normally. I remember you talking about how you do all your prep before you go, as loading supplies, making sure knives are sharpened, etc. Sorry about the toe necrosis. You have talked about it is a long-term problem.
1. I love your Scottish brogue, 2. I spent summers on my cousin's dairy farm in Kentucky, USA. and cannot recall any of the cows having mani/pedis on such a regular basis! I will show my cousin your channel the next time we talk. He will be super impressed!! ❤
Watching from the US here. Growing up, grandparents had a large dairy farm in Montana. I developed a love for cows that has never gone away. Thank you for all that you do. I sure enjoy watching your channel!
It's so meditative to watch. I love watching your videos before bed, it's part of my winding down ritual and I love it. Cup of tea, Hoof GP, comfy nightie.
I love the job you do for these beautiful cows. I love to hear your stories and watch you guys work together. I ordered some cups, and I can't wait to get them. I'm so happy.I found this channel and could subscribe to it. Bless you for what you do for those beautiful animals. Bless you and your family and your beautiful wife and children.❤️
Greetings from Kansas. This has become hands down my favorite channel to watch. When I don’t see a new video I get sad. I appreciate the commentary you provide as you take such good care of the cattle.
It's calming for me to be able to sit and watch you working, I feel rested when it's over. PS;...I got my t-shirt day before yesterday - LOVE IT!! Thanks from a Canadian fan.
I’m glad to see the toe necrosis is healing well. You guys are all so good at what you do! Graeme, you’ve assembled a great team of talented men and it shows.
Your dad would be immensely proud of your achievements GP, I certainly am and I don’t even personally know you but feel I do through your insightful kind caring videos you produce!. You are one of my favourite human beings Graham!!.. you got me though a tough period in life!.. keep up the good work!!. Love from the south coast England ❤
This may be my favorite video of yours. The first six minutes took me back to growing up on a dairy farm and oh I miss my dad! This should be nominated for an award. ❤
You all are such an essential support to so many farmers, not only in your local area. Showing when things don’t go as well as planned is one of the best ways we can learn from you via the videos, because now we have multiple touch points to reference. Keep it up!
2 things my father and grandfather said, 1 if you’ve never failed you’ve never tried and if you learn something you haven’t failed. You good brother
That’s a Great way to see through learning a trade…I am going to apply that to many of the young Men I am training in oil and gas maintenance…Cheers to you and your GrandFather for the view point, and passing it along👊

And I am absolutely ashamed about how little I know of what everyone does at these farms. My knowledge was like ok in the barn for milking and then back to the field. From choosing the correct feed, to putting down mats for the cows comfort and..hoof trimming the cows. I know hoof trimming is common for horses but it never crossed my mind that it was so vital for the cows and farmers. Your videos have been very instructional to me! Thank you!
Graham does an incredible job. I watch to see the cows. Some of the faces look just like some of my old favorites. They are sweet animals. I'm an old dairyman from Oregon who last milked in 1986. At that time there was no hoof trimmer I knew of that had the capability of the Hoof GP. All the repairs you see here I had to use the vet. So the Hoof GP is saving his dairies a lot of money. If a cow's feet hurt, they don't walk to the feeder enough or graze properly. So less milk. And the trimming tables and crush in my time didn't have cow comfort in mind. The ones that put the cow on her side scared the heck out of me. Milk production was always down the next day because of the trauma. It's easy to see the result of experience of trimming and treating thousands, maybe millions of cows. And the don't forget the occasional bull. Absolutely great work and teamwork!
Hello Mariner from another Oregon fan! This is such great content!
I have to admit it . Who ever is in charge of the music for your channel needs a raise :) I love every song you play during your episodes. They match well with the visual. Keep up the great work . Ya mate from Australia
And the scenery is fabulous!
It’s an Aussie!!! I love Aussies
Please consider a series of cows you are seeing for the second and third times…through to the healed/last trim. This was fascinating. Thank you.
I‘m quite certain your father would be absolutely proud of you. You’ve got so many people here in the comments, myself included, who will probably never have learned anything about hoof trimming if it weren’t for your videos. I really can say that I came across your account more or less by accident, and I’ve enjoyed watching you work more than I would ever have imagined. Keep up the good work and all the best from Germany 🙏🏼
Graham you made me cry this evening! I to think of my long gone father! I am confident that your father would be tremendously proud of the man you have become! I know at 64 i am still a work in progress and i pray my father can see the work i have put in over the years and be proud of me too!!!! I enjoy videos so very much!
I got my "One Herd, One Family" shirt today in the mail, and I couldn't be happier! Thanks to all of you that make this all happen. Your messaging and positive outreach is SO needed, as you can tell by its success. Family, community, unity, love & support are the best things to share and nurture. You emote that in all of your videos to include the beautiful animals you work so hard to care for. I couldn't possibly love it more, but I'm sure you'll find a way to make even that possible. Big hugs and thanks from my spot in middle America. One herd, one family. If everybody could feel more of that, the world will be in such a better place. Thanks again.
I got a tank, a tee, and a hoodie so I can wear our "colors" year round!
I got mine and my hoof anatomy hoodie the other day too, so excited to show them off!
I 🖤 mine, too 🐄
Graeme, you and your team have won over my loving admiration for the depth of work and commitment to excellent service to these milk ladies!! 😘
One more comment here. I think they’d be proud of you. Not only for your great ability to take care of these cattle but because you are a great person as well. It just flows from you. You’re a good man and that is what they would be proud of as well.
I've been subscribed to you for a while and this was such a beautiful insight into your thoughts and memories of your father. Sorry to hear you lost him so early in life. May he be RIP. 🙏 I do believe he's proud of what you've done, from where you started. Watching you help these cows and making this process as easy on them as possible, along with yourselves, is such an honor. And the pride you take in the job you do is amazing. Thank you for sharing your story. Much love from Massachusetts!💗
My sister and her husband have a dairy farm with 1800 cows. I moved to the cities back in the 1980s, but watching your videos brings me back home. You've done your father proud.
What you do for these cows is nothing short of medical art, you're so careful and skillful with your work. Even when it doesn't work out, that is no knock against you, you clearly do the best you can, always. Cheers from Michigan.
Thank you for sharing all the details and information while working. I have to tell you I watched an older video of you working on Bulls. You relieved that bulls abscess that you really didn't know it was so massive!! And when you were done you walked out with the Bull to see how he was doing and walking and I seen that Bull turn around and looked at you like he was THANKING YOU FOR HELPING HIM!! I ACTUALLY CRIED! I CRY FOR THESE ANIMALS A LOT!
After viewing all manner of videos of cow hoof wrapping on RUclips, I must say that Craig is one of the neatest and most thorough wrappers of hooves! 🐄 The cows must delightfully benefit from his expert handiwork! Way to go, Craig!!! ❤👏🏻❤
I’m not a farmer, I have no idea how to take care of cows. I came across your channel a couple years ago seeing a puss filled cavity. That was the only thing I was interested in. But your love for these beautiful animals has made me appreciate the work you do. The care you give to them is amazing. Thanks for showing us an average day now and then. And please keep up these wonderful videos.
I lost my mother a little over a year ago. It's always hard, losing a parent, no matter how long it's been. I respect you for caring so deeply for these animals.
Sorry to hear buddy. I lost my dad recently - I know what it feels like, wanting to tell everyone and anyone that will listen.
It gets easier. I promise.
@@Cypher7765❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m so sorry for the loss of your mom.❤🙏
Graeme, I am so sorry you lost your dad. He was far too young as were you. I know he would be proud of you and all you have accomplished. Keep up the amazing work! You too Craig and Kevin!
❤ Agreed he's done so well.. Look how fabulous his home is, but it's annoying people are just turning up there. Respect folks, his family as nice as they are should not have to tolerate intrusion from strangers. Have some respect. Graeme should not have to be worrying about his family's security while he's out there working.
This is one of the only family shows on youtube that's worth watching. It just feels like an episodic documentary, it's very calming to watch.
Your dad and step-dad would both be amazed at the progress in hoof trimming - and they’d both be so proud of you. The glue you helped engineer is holding untold blocks on healing cows. Keep up the good work!
One of my brother's best friends lost his father in high school, very suddenly-- but he had all of the rest of his friends and my bro to lean on, and while the pain never went fully away, it doesn't ping that deep, deep sense of loss as often. Farmers and agricultural workers that have been at it for generations like you can be so under-appreciated, but you, and your father and grandfather can be appreciated here, where you're carrying their memory and their work on. I grew up in a suuuper rural area of New Jersey, went to school with the farm kids and they were some of the hardest workers I knew-- helping out before the bus picked them up in the morning and keeping at it after they got home.
So sorry for the loss of your dad. I too lost a parent at a young age (my mom) at age 15. And know our parents are watching over us as we do our best to make them proud. I love watching your videos they are so relaxing. Thanks from the United States 🇺🇸 ❤
Please tell the cows we love them and are their biggest fans! They’re HUGE in America!
you're father would be very proud of your doing .. doing what he has loved for all these years and even sharing it with the whole world is something he could've only dreamt of !!
I'm happy the cows have you and others like you. I feel so Sorry for so many Dairy cattle.😢
It was me! I honestly didn't realize I wasn't subscribed. LOL. It's strangely cathartic to watch the cows get their hooves fixed up.
I’ve been subscribed since about 40k subs. Watching your journey, the growth of your team and the success of your channel has been inspiring. Thank you Graeme, Craig and Kevin. Ashley, good job Generaling these guys!
I think both would be proud. Your stepfather especially would be proud of how you've taken a craft he taught you, started a business, and then made that business grow.
I appreciate that you share a bit about your dads and what they did that encouraged you to do what you do and love it and the girls (and a few boys) that you care for.
When I was a little girl, my dad bought 2 calves. A Jersey and a black Angus, Bobby and Buttercup. The Jersey, so we could make our own butter and have fresh milk. She was mean, so dad got rid of her. My brother charged the neighbor boys 25¢ to ride the steer for bull riding practice. When we butchered him, his meat was sooo tough! My dad and brother cried when they shot him and we all cried when mom first served us hamburgers, knowing it was Bobby. Dad took the meat all nicely packaged to a very large Native American family that we helped alot. The father told my dad that was the best beef they had ever tasted! I guess because they didn't love Bobby like we did!
I have a 3 year old that absolutely adores watching your work. He has declared he wants to be a hoof trimmer, which is pretty cool if you ask me.
Your attention to the cows is un precedented Graham, I watch your videos and always feel better about the day. Your videos are amazing.
It reminds me of being on the farm when I was a child, I never thought I’d look back with the fondness for a simpler life. God bless!
I see comments saying the person doesn't like your choice of music. I love it! Such a nice change from rap or country.
Your stepfather and father would both be so proud of who you've become. Your business is going great and you are a great teacher. Your whole team works well together. You all show caring and compassion for all the animals you treat.
U mentioned your step father was a hoof trimmer. Did u work with him? U r so compassionate with these cows. U do a fantastic job. It’s very important that u enjoy your work. We can tell that u do. I’m retired working medical clerical positions at a local hospital. I enjoyed my work. God bless u & yours Graeme. Rose from Norfolk-VA Beach,VA USA
4:04 hoof trimming is good for the soul--and the sole! What a huge difference it makes for the cows. Imagine having to bear all that weight on an unhealthy hoof, when suddenly a knight in a green crush starts helping relieve your horrible pain. Thanks Team Hoof GP!
Graeme, I do believe your Father & Step-Father would both be so proud of not only the hoof trimmer you are but the man you've become. Its quite evident the kind heart you have & the good work you do.
💚 🐄 🧡 🐂 💚
Your father raised a special son. You do a great job on all the cows you trim.
Thank you for existing. Your videos get me through the day. Being bi polar these videos calm my anxiety and give me a reason to waznna continue to live
I love what you do for these cows we used to have a lot of Holstein here in Missouri but these days it's rare to see any in my area
I love your channel that I can’t watch any other hoof channels. You guys are #1 in my book. Not to say the other channels aren’t good but, I love the care, and compassion you guys have as a team!!❤❤
Your father would be, no he is proud and thankful to have a son like you. God bless you and your family ❤
Thank you so much for sharing your dad and step dad passed, they are both looking down on you and are so proud of you and all your doing. I lost my mama 14 years ago and I still miss her all the time. 🙏❤ I am so sorry for your losses
"Hoof trimming is good for the sole" New T-shirt idea?
Nicely done.
Love this idea!
Great idea ❤
Yes! 💸
Needs a cute cartoon to go with the text!
I think if you're father could see you now he would be so incredibly proud of you Graeme, your passion and dedication is absolutely undeniable, all of your achievements and experiences would no doubt make him incredibly happy, he definitely has family with our community here as well, sending all the love, keep doing what you do because you're the light of so many people's day and i cannot wait to continue this journey with you.
It's weird that seeing cows in pain has me all in my feels.. You're doing God's work brotha, keep it up..
I’m a city girl and the closest I’ve ever gotten to a cow was to pour a glass of milk. But I cannot get enough of your videos. You have such a good touch with them and it amazes me to see how much their feet can really get in trouble. It makes ms sad to see that. But I’m so relieved they are in your tender care. You rock!
It's funny to me when the cows enter the crutch and think they're going to pass through but then immediately get met with the gate and stop instantly hahaah
Actually called a "crush" not crutch
Lol 😂
Or how they're suddenly super cow flying in the air!
Yay me happy
You can see the moment their brains kind of stop and go wait...
I truly believe both your father and stepfather would be extremely, extremely, extremely proud of not just what you've built out of nothing but also of the husband, father, friend, just the man you have become. Please keep up the amazing work and care you do.
I have to agree with you that hoof trimming is good for the soul. So is watching it. Love watching you guys trim, and the banter is awesome.
Video starts at 5:55
I know I’ve said it a million times but these videos conclude my days. They help me de compress and sleep good. Thank you.
Same.
When you were a wee lad, what would you have thought if your dad told you, “son, one day the whole world will know your name”. I think he’s pretty damn proud of you.
Your Stepdad would definitely be so proud of you. Your videos show how caring, how talented and how charismatic you are. As a mom of 3 any good my children do I am so proud of you. You are a kind human.
Nice to have the music back.
It’s always sad to see these beautiful creatures with wounds anywhere, you do such good works,sir! You are the voice for these sweet creatures and I thank you for what you do to give them relief!❤
Hate the music just love your narration
Love the music ❤
I've been afraid to speak up on the music. It's a little strange...Cow Love Songs, Vol. 185
Your father and grandfather would be so PROUD OF YOU !!!!!!!
I love the music that you play with your videos and also your calim voice.😊God bless you and your family
always such terrible music. in addition to that, very loud.
otherwise, great videos!
You and your crew/family are so caring and compassionate with what you do thank you for letting us all get the chance to watch you help and take care of the cows. ❤
When are we going to address the real issue : poor farm animals who stand around in their excrement all day are obviously going to have this chronic problem?!?! 🤦🏻♀️ do they ever get out to pasture? Or have different kinds of surfaces under-foot (hoof) so that this rot due to stagnation wouldn’t happen?! Am I missing something here?
Obviously you need to educate yourselves where these cows are concerned. Cows do not spend their lives standing on concrete. Many live outside in the pastures close to year around. Plus, farmers use a rubber covering over the surfaces in their barns to make it more comfortable for the cows to walk. The misconceptions of how cows are treated needs to be addressed. Most farmers treat their animals very well.
@@gailkuhn7593 education & info appreciated
I’m in Texas! My gal and I watch your videos all the time! It hit me when you said your Dad died so young! I’m proud of you! I’m sure he is as well
He'd be proud of you. You're helping animals and farmers alike. You have a family you love and a job that you enjoy that supports them. You employ others, meaning you help other families put food and necessities on the table. And with these videos, you educate and entertain.
He'd be proud of you, man.
I’m a disabled vet and for some reason I can’t explain watching you and your boys work, along with the music, is extremely calming for me. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you!
i was saying to a friend today that if you need work done (any kind) find someone that is passionate about whatever it is they do, you guys are the embodiment of that work ethos.
i had returned a log splitter that they couldn't start, i spent maybe 90 minutes on it and rectified several small issues, it starts super easy now every time now.
i know the chonda engines like the back of my hand and love to get them running.
I'm sure that you father would be very proud of what you have become.i'm watching your videos from Quebec, Canada. You & your team are very good at what you do. Keep up the great work 👍🐄🐄
That is an impressive amount of teamwork, to be able to do basic trimming in such short order normally. I remember you talking about how you do all your prep before you go, as loading supplies, making sure knives are sharpened, etc. Sorry about the toe necrosis. You have talked about it is a long-term problem.
1. I love your Scottish brogue, 2. I spent summers on my cousin's dairy farm in Kentucky, USA. and cannot recall any of the cows having mani/pedis on such a regular basis! I will show my cousin your channel the next time we talk. He will be super impressed!! ❤
Watching from the US here. Growing up, grandparents had a large dairy farm in Montana. I developed a love for cows that has never gone away. Thank you for all that you do. I sure enjoy watching your channel!
It's so meditative to watch. I love watching your videos before bed, it's part of my winding down ritual and I love it. Cup of tea, Hoof GP, comfy nightie.
He cares so deeply and takes his work to heart. I love the dedication he has for his work and his 4 legged clients!
I’m absolutely positive that your dad and your grandfather are very proud of you.
I love the job you do for these beautiful cows. I love to hear your stories and watch you guys work together. I ordered some cups, and I can't wait to get them. I'm so happy.I found this channel and could subscribe to it. Bless you for what you do for those beautiful animals. Bless you and your family and your beautiful wife and children.❤️
Greetings from Kansas. This has become hands down my favorite channel to watch. When I don’t see a new video I get sad. I appreciate the commentary you provide as you take such good care of the cattle.
It's calming for me to be able to sit and watch you working, I feel rested when it's over.
PS;...I got my t-shirt day before yesterday - LOVE IT!! Thanks from a Canadian fan.
I’m glad to see the toe necrosis is healing well. You guys are all so good at what you do! Graeme, you’ve assembled a great team of talented men and it shows.
Im truly saddened and sorry for the loss of your father. Always reflect upon the good memories those are a gift that can never be taken away. 😪😪😪😪🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love the music on these videos. Thank you for putting the best music on these videos!
Your dad would be immensely proud of your achievements GP, I certainly am and I don’t even personally know you but feel I do through your insightful kind caring videos you produce!.
You are one of my favourite human beings Graham!!..
you got me though a tough period in life!..
keep up the good work!!.
Love from the south coast England ❤
The men in ur life did good with you. Keep up the great work. And keep spreading your wisdom to the world.
Thank you for your videos. My 3 year old loves watching you guys help so many animals.
Thanks you for great music with your videos!!! God bless you!
I'm sorry for the loss of your fathers, I'm glad trimming brings those memories back and keeps you close.
This may be my favorite video of yours. The first six minutes took me back to growing up on a dairy farm and oh I miss my dad!
This should be nominated for an award. ❤
You all are such an essential support to so many farmers, not only in your local area. Showing when things don’t go as well as planned is one of the best ways we can learn from you via the videos, because now we have multiple touch points to reference.
Keep it up!
That poor baby. She's lucky to have you to try to help her.
