I really appreciate how gentle you are with raising and positioning the horse's foot while you work. Even when they tried to pull away, you don't jerk them around or seem to get irritated with them. There are a lot of farriers who aren't that gentle anymore.
Every time I watch on of these, I always wonder how far down you can get before reaching the skin. Horses are incredible with their huge feet. It’s like having toenails that wrap underneath your foot when you walk.
I've learned that there's a difference in texture between live sole and exfoliating dead sole so you know you're getting close when the stuff you're cutting out turns from chalky to waxy and that's where you stop cutting. Also if you find the "true apex" of the frog (the tip of the triangular thing in the middle) by cutting away excess material until you see where the frog and sole merge together, you can judge how much sole depth you have (the deeper the apex, the more the sole). I'm not a farrier but I've watched a lot of professional tutorial videos because it fascinates me
The tools remind me of cheese slicers. Which makes me think about sometime during the medieval era, someone was lamenting that their cheese wasnt easier to cut and the look out their window at someone working on a horse hooves and going "hmmm. That could work....."
Loved watching you very skilfully reshoeing such a large horse. It would be interesting to here a commentary sometimes to learn what exactly you are seeing and doing. I watched a video of a Chinese so called "farrier" and boy was it brutal.
Nice work my freind after having horses all my life and going through so many farriers because i wasnt happy with there work like the horse shoes throwing of after one week of riding anyway i ended up meeting a fellow one day at the outback pub in Australia and he said that he was a farrier anyway cutting along story short i still have kevin as my farrier he does a wonderful job and the shoes stay on untill the next change.Anyway if i met you i would have you as my farrier good sir.kind regards Gregory Lee from Melbourne Victoria Australia. 🤠😁🖐👍🏻.
"the main reason cows don’t have shoes is that they don’t perform challenging tasks. Interestingly, back when oxen were used as draft animals for farm work, they were usually shod. However, unlike horses, they wore 2 separate ‘shoes’ on each foot since they’ve cloven hooves." I don't why i'm interested in watching this work, it is like my heart is watching as well as my head.
Just a question: I see that you've put the shoe so the breakover is a bit further back on some horses. As this horse has some stretched laminae in the toe, what is the reason for not doing a breakover like that on this horse?
BEAUTIFUL, it amazes me how many time a horse's hoof can have horseshoe nails pounded into them without ruining the horses' hoof. I use horseshoe nails in stained glass so I do know they aren't as hard as a ten penny nail but I still find it interesting that it doesn't wreck the hoof in time.
Lovely video. To my untrained eye looks like a beautiful job. Just think, 4x this every six weeks! Must cost a fortune. How much does a visit from the farrier cost? (Sorry to be so vulgar).
Ok first of all , let me say , I LOVE watching these ! 🥰 But why do you burn their hoofs? Does it not hurt them ? I am the first to admit I am ignorant to this so I would love to educate myself on this. Please help me. With love and blessings. Shalom 🕊
It's still in the "dead" portion of the hoof! A bit deeper and a bit more inwards, one would be hitting live tissue - where nerves are, and the horse wouldn't be happy! Where these nails go, the keratin has no sensation. Hope that helps!
@@nilkaelisrose7267 They have to go in at the right angle so that they stay in the keratin layer. That hard layer goes all the way up the outside of the hoof, so as long as the nails lean outward instead of inward, they don't touch the live tissue even though they go a long way up.
After watching most of your videos. I have 2 questions. They are prolly stupid but here they are. Why don’t the nail holes close up when your sizing the shoe? And what does it smell like when you are fitting the shoe onto the hoof and it’s smoking?
Sometimes hooves have odd coloring and it can appear to be something bad when it is actually the natural coloration of the hoof. Learned this myself which was strange. I thought it was that until I was told that is in fact pigmentation and not the other. Sometimes however you get coloration like this cause there was already bruising before you started working on the hoof not after trimming and trimming as far as getting blood will very likely result in the horse letting you know. That is... In the form of kicking and exclaiming as something like that would be likely painful to a horse. So I do not believe that this was caused by the farrier but an ongoing problem or natural pigmentation. I am no professional but I sometimes work with horses.
Disclaimer: opinion from a “not farrier”, but I believe that it is meant to show high spots and low spots on the hoof (high spots appearing seared and low spots appearing unchanged) where the shoe will make contact so that pressure points can be avoided by trimming away the high spots until the whole thing is evenly seared (therefore indicating that everything is leveled up). But that’s only my best guess based on watching too many of these videos.
Searing is also used to kill infections in the Hoof. Cause Just like Cows, the hoofs can get infected. There’s a number of benefits in doing this since it also helps for shoeing horses as well.
Lovely work! The only thing missing is a before vs. after comparison view, and maybe a look at the entire horse, too.
I cut him some slack for the dog in the background
Yes lovely job,and I would like to see the horse
Kudos to the horse for staying calm through that whole process.
Omgosh I didn’t want this to end I couldn’t take my eyes off it . What a fantastic job and the finish was fantastic
Good job
Your videos are relaxing and I love the gentle music you have added. I picture all these horses thinking "ahhhh Jake is here"
I really appreciate how gentle you are with raising and positioning the horse's foot while you work. Even when they tried to pull away, you don't jerk them around or seem to get irritated with them. There are a lot of farriers who aren't that gentle anymore.
Nice I’d love a compilation of finishing the hoof it’s so satisfying
This is the best way for me to kill some time at work on a Saturday morning! Thank you for another well done video, Jake!
5:26 This dog in the background made my day)
I know nothing about horses but this video was captivating. Beautiful work!

@@miamyos oh, that’s pretty interesting.
Ok. I was wondering how they figured out how far into the bottom of the hoof they could go. Thank you foe that
So nice to have you back!!!
The way he yanked the old shoe off 😬
I love watching videos like this. I am afraid of horses so why it is so satisfying for me to watch I have no idea!
First time watching. Really good filming, but I'd love to see the horse.
Got them new Air Hoof 4's 👀 🔥
What a satisfying video, thanks!
Nice video and great job 👏🏼 congratulations!! Wonderful close up!!
First time watching. Very relaxing, thank you
great work man!, your videos are always awesome to watch and are super relaxing!
Good video!

Dog peek at 4:55 , very cute 💖
It looks to be a Clydes Dale Horse, they are beautiful Horses. thank you for helping the Horses, usa
It's definitely some kind of draft horse

Absolutely amazing. Cheers
I'm curious, what happened with the nail at 9:02? Was it going in a at a bad angle or an issue with the nail itself? LOVE the videos :)

I would love u to introduce the horses 🐴
Beautiful work
The RUclips algorithm suggested watching donkey hoof trimming in China. I was basically the opposite vibe of this.
Oh god 😂

Well done. That is such a big hoof too
with the background music i love your videos even more
Thank you for sharing.
This is better than soap cutting
idk why carving that huge frog was so satisfying looking
I have no clue why this was recommended for me on RUclips but I don't care. this is awesome!
Very educational

Please don't fast forward through the blacksmithing (horseshoe/anvil) parts. Those are the best ASMR-filled parts of these videos!
And all this work is good for how long before do it all over again?? Thanks

He has to shave his leg 😂😂😂😂 to much hair maybe a women head band helps keeping all that hair away while working 😂😂♥️♥️
5:28 Forbidden Parmesan... 😁
Perfect👍👍
Amazing work !
Well done.
Ohh there MUST be a dog about!?!?!? lol .. so many yummies for them

It’s like there getting there nails done
I love this🤩🤩🤩🤤🤤🤤
Where cab i find the background music?
Great video. Question, why do you burn the hoof with the shoe?
It sets the shoe. Think of it as a cheat sheet. Lol
I love that piece of nylon strap on your stand.
Out of curiosity how is it that the nail doesn’t hurt the horse? I mean it seems to go so deep to me am curious
It's still in the "dead" portion of the hoof! A bit deeper and a bit more inwards, one would be hitting live tissue - where nerves are, and the horse wouldn't be happy! Where these nails go, the keratin has no sensation. Hope that helps!
@@NoctiDraws thank you very much it does help a lot. I was kinda confused since it seems to go so deep.

@@carrieseymour5197 thats is super interesting thank you so much for clarifying this 😊
Some dog is gonna be very happy with those huge pieces of frog to snack on
Yes absolutely. My hogs love them as well 😁
Must be a brand new rasp…🤔
Muito bom o trabalho!!!
No music please. Asmr is good
здравствуйте,как часто нужно менять подковы?
how does the farrier's back hold up after years of doing this?
Hard work buddy. 💪
After watching most of your videos. I have 2 questions. They are prolly stupid but here they are. Why don’t the nail holes close up when your sizing the shoe? And what does it smell like when you are fitting the shoe onto the hoof and it’s smoking?
Must be a bit difficult with all those feathers!
Bro slow down. It ain’t going anywhere
How do you know when to stop cutting/ trimming?
Probably a different feel in the trim at different depths
Great Video! What’s the song called?
I definitely prefer your content with music 🎶
A great video, as always. But please without music. It kills the asmr effect.
Do they feeling any pain throughout this process??
Nope
Dude ditch the music.
Schade das so vorsintflutlivh gearbeitet wird die Chinesen nehmen dazu ein Stoßmesser das geht schneller und genauer
Ok am I the only lady that is dying to see this farrier? God damn those arms!😋🥵
Is there a reason why the hoof has a lot of bruising?
Super❤
Good job...
If you ever get angry. Just know being a farrier exists
How come you don't use a grinder? Spook the horse?
Thar was just one foot. 3 more to go😁
To all the people saying “it hurts the poor horse” it hurts as much as getting your nails clipped
Lets go
WaoW ❤️✨️
Why do you burn the bottom of the foot first?
To make a smooth surface between the hoof and the shoe
HI
I AM FROM INDIA ❤️
Good horsey
tus cabllos trabaja duro seguro son los mejores
Do they ever glue on the shoes?.
Glue is an option; but it can't stand the twisting that a properly nailed shoe can.
I could be wrong but it looked like he trimmed the frog too deep & got blood.
Sometimes hooves have odd coloring and it can appear to be something bad when it is actually the natural coloration of the hoof. Learned this myself which was strange. I thought it was that until I was told that is in fact pigmentation and not the other.

ここまで綺麗になるんや
WOW, that is some pedicure.
Coblet 🫧
Would have been far easier for you if the owners had wrapped the feathers from the get go
Nice work!
Jake, what is the purpose of "searing" the shoe to the hoof before nailing it in place?
Disclaimer: opinion from a “not farrier”, but I believe that it is meant to show high spots and low spots on the hoof (high spots appearing seared and low spots appearing unchanged) where the shoe will make contact so that pressure points can be avoided by trimming away the high spots until the whole thing is evenly seared (therefore indicating that everything is leveled up).

@@LOVEMUFFIN_official sounds like a good reason to me.
Thanks.
@@danielramsey6141 thanks. I just think of the the smell that has to make too. But it does make sense.
Les duele a los caballos?
Not at all
Can I get a farrier to use a real hammer. They all struggle with those scrawny hammers 🔨😒😊
Sloppy rough work ive seen this done a thousand times and never so rough or sloppy
Quite a bit different from cattle
gj🐎
🌻👍🏻❤️A job you should be proud of.
