I'm a radio DJ and a classical singer and the closest I've ever gotten to a cow is the fact that there's an organic dairy across the street from where I live. My entire family remains confused as all get out about my obsession with this channel. Obviously they just need to watch it! Then they will understand. LOL
You might need help.
He’s so good to cows…helping them
Now I wonder if there’s a connection……because I’m a former DJ and a church singer. Is there an algorithm for us that is putting cow hooves with problems before our eyes……?

Maybe it’s a singer thing! Trained classical singer here, too, and I’m fascinated by Graeme’s videos 😂
You should do a video of you getting a pedicure for 2 million subs, youre welcome for the suggestion. Love the videos and the love the care the cows receive.
Ever since I started watching these videos I have had a strong desire to hug a cow 😘
I am always bowled over by the absolute finesse you have with your tools. The delicacy with which you handle your job, and the care you show, warms my heart every time. Each cow (or bull) is obviously more than a number to you. You are one of the good guys, Graeme!
She's gaining weight, her gait has definitely improved, and she seems to be feeling her oats! Your care and precision are really making a difference for this lady.
I noticed that she had put on some weight as well. I'm so glad she's able to be more comfortable so she can eat better.
I was an Animal Health Inspector in Northumberland for 22 years, left this summer. Most farmers used trimmers like you regularly, tbh, it was rare, and on the same places we had to enforce, trimmers involvement. Your work n compassion is a tonic 😊
A lot more blood on this channel. Seems a bit rougher than comparable channels.
@@chrisb9960If you are referring to the hoof covered in red in the beginning of the video, I think that was iodine that was sprayed on it.
Strangely, I would say there's a lot LESS blood on this channel compared to the others that I also watch. Damage to the corium is a bummer and obviously to be avoided but clean margins and removing overburdening horn with a little bit of bleeding is better than the lesion never healing and decreasing quality of life.
Agreeing with Nancy above.
Animal health inspector good job protecting animals😊
I’m loving the super close ups while he’s trimming. Excellent 🎉
That cow (4715) is being pretty patient, with all that trimming you’re doing on that one hoof. Good girl! Have a great day Graeme 🌞🌻🥰‼️ Oh, and Craigie Boy too 🌻🌼🥰‼️
Great video. Full of instruction and compassion.💝🤗
She's looking better for sure! One thing I really appreciate about you and Craigie is that you both obviously Love the cows themselves. That makes a huge difference. When you see them more as creatures that need and want love too, then they respond so much better to your treatments. Have a great week, Love from Memphis, TN!
It never ceases to amaze me how delicate the feet are on such a massive animal.
Beyond being fascinating to watch, these animals are so fortunate to have you caring for them.
I love seeing these revisits, it's great to see the progress. Nice one.
Man I tell you, I truly find your videos very fulfilling. You take such pride in your work and it definitely shows, thank you forr your dedication to quality And compassion for these big puppy dogs :-)
My grandfather was a dairy farmer in the USA, I spent many days and summers helping with the cows, lovely animals!
I love it when you show the cow walking after the block!! TFS!
12:26 I love this shot…the ladies walking together looking like they’re enjoying a Sunday stroll.
I absolutely love your videos. Graham, what you do for these amazing beasts is wonderful. The cows are so much happier after they see you for their pedicure
Graeme I’d love to come to Scotland and be your “ cow” petter/lover/ comforter..and keep our ladies and bulls calm in the crush.. while you do your thing. I’m sure they’ll remember that the “Crush” is more comforting than stressful…and feel better for your efforts…IF you don’t mind my singing…and THEY don’t mind my singing….
Grandpa used to say the cows gave more milk when I sang to them…
PS…You have a beautiful Mrs. GP and absolutely gorgeous children and home;
you are SO blessed. YOU’VE BUILT a good life for yourself and your family..I especially appreciate when you take one of your laddies to work with you; this IS truly a family business….Good Man.❤🇨🇦👍🏻
I like seeing the before and after of a hood that is in pain to one that is recovering. Keep up the great work.
What a great improvement over the last time she was in the !! I'm so chuffed that she's on the right track to being fully healed by the next time we see her again. Love from a Retired Paramedic, a S&R Dog and Handler Team Trainer and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 🇨🇦🇬🇧
That’s a beautiful trim, been watching you for a couple of years and this impresses me the most. Well done, merry crimbo.
Love it, great to see her hoof has improved!
Thank you so very much GP and your team we all just love your videos look forward to seeing more of the beautiful scenery and thank you and Craig for introducing more of us to your brothers and Craig and his beautiful family
It is satisfying to see how quickly some of these cows bounce back form just a quick trim.
The cows are lucky to have the Hoof GP looking after them.
That analogy was _magnificent!_ You’re quite the wordsmith, GP.
Merry Christmas from Indiana, you are great and I so enjoy your videos. Hope the family is well and the kiddos have a wonderful time with Santa 💕💕
Thank you for all that you do for all the cattle we thank you!
I love your videos! Even after binge watching your entire channel in 3 months 🤣. Keep up the amazing work! ❤️
There a quite a few hoof trimmers but this is the only channel I watch. You’re an excellent teacher and narrator. It’s a strange fascination to be watching these videos lol and you keep me interested the entire time!! 😊
I don't know why this is so satisfying to watch but it is. Your compassion and care for the animals is wonderful to see and its so nice to see them get better.
Thanks for the flash back! I can never remember them by number alone.
I love watching you I always wanted to move to Scotland and this is the closest I'm ever going to get
Truly one of your best re-visit vids. Loved it.
Yay, 4715’s follow up video! I enjoy setting to see the whole process - healing any injury takes time.
When she cringes and tries to pull away it makes my toes curl! I'm so glad these girls have you! Thank you!
Yay, cow 4715! Go team Hoof GP!
From watching your videos I have a real appreciation for the softness and hardness of the different areas of the hoof horn as it is damaged and as it heals and how challenging the trimming can be. My grandmothers' family were dairy farmers and I always loved visiting the farms and getting close to the cows. Thanks for sharing!
OMG that poor girl walking on a huge fraction of her hoof. I keep thinking how resiliant nature is. She is healing faster than I thought. I love your compassion and love for these beautiful creatures. They live and are valued. Best quality of life.
We rented an old farmhouse on a working cattle farm. My 13 (at the time) Year old grand daughter loved working with the cattle. Mostly mom's and calves, she helped with their immunizations, with castration and even helped milk out a cow with the start of mastitis. She misses that and nothing else of that time in her life
A very good Wednesday morning to you all from Wellington Somerset
I have been seeing more trimming videos from unskilled people. They don't take their time and just attack the hoof.
Your skill is 10x better because you care about the animals.
I watched another trimmer and as he finished up he pointed to a spot that he missed. He just said "Oh well, I'll get it next time". Don't watch him anymore. The Hoof GP and crew care so much for the animals. 🙂🐄🐃🐂💜💜💜
73rd! You suggested going to watch Tom Pemberton’s channel. I can’t stop watching all the things that happen on his and his dads farm. Thanks for the suggestion. Roger in Pierre South Dakota USA 😊
Great trim here Graham! OUTSTANDING JOB!
Dude, you are awesome. The love you have for these animals is amazing. Love your videos. Merry Christmas to you and your family and a very very happy new year!
Hands of God - So caring and so gentle. Great to watch you work and learn from you. you should be a veterinarian. You would be incredible and do so many amazing things for animals.
I've watched your vids for aaes and I know you care about each and every cow. I know you try very hard not to hurt them... I've seen you do cows with their entire coreum exposed that flinched less than she did. I flinched a little myself every time she did. She must hurt so much right now, but I know you and Craig will have her in tiptop shape in no time though:)
I love that you revist them no matter how many times it takes!!
I love your videos. I love watching the animals so much! You're so good with them! Cows are just so sweet. They look well fed and healthy. It's so heart warming to watch someone who loves their job, too! Thank you so much for giving us this peek into your life!
I love how much you care for the cows and how gentle you are, do you get many cows you just can't fix
Probably well over 90% of the cows he trims just need a routine trim and aren't suffering from any significant problems. And then there are a small percentage of them with more serious problems like what you see in these videos. They are chosen to be shown, because if you watched what he does for most of his day, it would be extremely boring. He's, basically, just giving a cow a pedicure.
Of those small number of bad cases, he can fix the vast majority. But then there are a few cows that he can't do a great deal for. He's not a vet, and some cows need serious medical attention. But even with those, he can often make them more comfortable or do some things that will make the vet's job easier. So, there are a few cows he just can't fix. But there aren't too many.
The main ones he can't do a whole lot for are those with toe necrosis or those who have infections in the leg that can't be helped with a hoof trim. Toe necrosis is when an infection gets deep inside the hoof and starts destroying bones. He's had cases where the bone fell out of cow's hoof while he was trying to trim it. He can clear away dead tissue in cases like that and do other things to make the cow comfortable, but the damage done can't be reversed. A vet might need to amputate the infected claw or the animal might need to be put down. Other sorts of infections might be treated with antibiotics.
I watched one from a few months ago, where he mentioned there was nothing he could. But this was only because he'd noticed the delamination of the horn and a raging infection had taken hold, meaning he had to turn the cow over to the vet, who would prescribe pain relief, antibiotics and being kept in the barn and on soft straw while she heals. With regard to trimming; if they're overgrown, twisted or damaged, I've never seen him unable to provide the care that's needed 😉👍🏻
No, he doesn’t have many videos where he can’t fix the cow. Some require veterinary intervention as live tissue needs to be cut into (usually between the toes) which is beyond his training. Infections sometimes require antibiotics which are beyond his scope of practice as well. The other thing he can’t help is toe necrosis where the tissue has died but he can help manage it. Some cows’ toes are growing in a screw shape due to the rotation of the peddle bone, which is difficult if not impossible to fix. How’s that, Graeme? Did I miss anything?
@@amyeharris
That's a pretty good list, but you didn't mention that the vast majority of trimmings don't end up in these videos because they would be boring to watch because of how few problems the cow has. And some of the conditions mentioned can be treated by a hoof trimmer to some extent. He can't cut into live tissue, but he can remove dead tissue caused by toe necrosis and can use blocks and other aids to aid in the comfort of the cow with that condition. And he can use iodine and other treatments to shrink live tissue in places where it doesn't belong. He has done that very effectively in a number of cases. And there are trimming techniques which can help with toes growing in a screw shape by changing the weight distribution. This can prevent it from getting worse or can even improve it in some cases. But it can get the cow walking normally again in almost all cases even if the internal problem isn't completely solved. But of all the things mentioned, I would say toe necrosis is probably the one he has the least ability to treat. It's a very ugly situation where you can have a big hole in the end of the toe and massive internal damage to the cow's foot.
@@taters-no4gj
There have been a number of cases where he couldn't cure the underlying problem, but he could still make the cow more comfortable and walk more normally. There is a lot he can do except in the really extreme cases where only a vet can help the cow. But even then, he can often make the cow more comfortable until she is properly treated, or he can do things to make the job of the vet easier. I've seen a number of cases where he says he can't do anything for the cow and then proceeds to do a whole bunch of things for the cow.
Absolutely love watching your videos.
I love an update; turns out, an update on the cow who was trimmed in the video that I have enjoyed watching the most of all your videos (I'm working on them all from the beginning) is seriously the most satisfying thing ever. Lovely - I hope the task of filming and sharing your work never bogs you down!
The only thing that I work on that looks like I’m trimming is when peeling a potato with a potato peeler as I work in a kitchen of a care home but the thing I love to do the most is watch your videos’ sand have been for a few years now and so does my closest friend and when we get together we love to chat about your guys video’s. I love the Banter between you guys and the love and care you have for the girls ❤
As much as I love watching the cows and trimming skills, you truly have a talent of commentating and entertaining Graeme. A perfect fit for RUclips. Makes me glad to see your success because you’re quite deserving of it in my opinion
The care and attention and the delicacy of your work is lovely and shows how much you care about the comfort of cows and bulls in your care.❤😊🇨🇦
I love 4715! 🐄 what a love bug! Her hoof looks so good now
Vast improvement from the last video graham 👍👍👍
Sago hello from Six Nations Of The GrandRiver Canada. Really enjoy your content. Nya:wen thank you.. 🤟🏽🤟🏽
Hello from nipaluna (Hobart), lutruwita (Tasmania) - traditional land of the muwinina people. 👋🫶 Awesome to see that hoof-trimming brings people together from all over the world❣️
I am learning things from you that I could never have imagined I would be interested in. I am VERY interested.😂
amazing knifework.. I was worried like I was the one doing the cutting.. Great skill HGP
Happy Christmas!!
And Blessed New Year to you & yours!
(Yes, I know there is still time till these dates - but it'll be here, or seems like it, sooner than expected!)
Love your channel ❤️
You are so loving to these animals! You're a very special person. Thank you for what you do! They need someone like you to take care of them
The Hoof GP is AWESOME 🤘🏽🤘🏽🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾
Good Tuesday to you and bravo 👌 for your kindness and patience to these cow's 🐄 I'm certain that they appreciate your time and caring for them 🐄👌 God bless you and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Holiday upcoming 👌🐄 from the USA STATE OF OHIO 🇺🇸🙏👌🐄
I just want to take a moment to say THANK YOU for the work that you do to make the cows' feet and lives more comfortable. Just know that I, for one in a million, appreciate YOU.
Your true concern for the cows' hoofs shows in how carefully you search out the cause of their discomfort. Watching your videos is very informative and interesting.
I've been sharing to FB. So addictive. ❤️
I remember poor girl, Hello from san antonio,tx
In a world where everything on the internet seems negative, here is this one channel where people can come and see people doing what they love - taking care of animals! Keep on doing great things!
I have to ask, though...Do you constantly receive new hoodies and hats to wear each day from your suppliers or do you and Mrs. GP have a laundry trick you're not sharing? :) Getting "Code Brown" stains out of lime green clothing cannot be easy!
Love the dynamic of you and Craig!
Those knives are obviously really really sharp. Curious if there's ever been a slip of the hand and gotten a cut, would imagine that would be pretty bad.
Usually it's with a dull edge that you get injured because you need to force more and can't control it properly. A properly sharpened edge is extremely unlikely to injure you as long as you hold it and use it properly. Sharp blades also leave a clean cut which is much easier to fix than a jagged, messy cut from a dull blade. My knowledge comes form woodworking chisels and not hoof trimming knives, but the same general knowledge applies to any blade.
@@chasm9557 same with kitchen knives too!
She does look alot better. U can help heal her. U are the best man for the job.
Really good video love to see a follow-up the camera angle was great we could really see in what you were doing well done 👍 to the cameraman
Aww, it looks so much better 🙏 I literally cried for her in the last video.
I really like these follow up videos
Can you PLEASE start linking the previous video for these follow ups!! I want to go back and watch the old video before this one, but without even a name to go on, it's quite challenging to find.
I just found out recently that Craig has his own channel
Every time I watch these videos, I love hearing just how much care and compassion he has for these animals. It's so refreshing to hear someone so passionate and dedicated to making the well-being of such common animals a high priority. Thank you for sharing these!
Thank you for taking care of the cow. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Thank you, sir, for the trimming session without the music. Just knife sounds and your commentary. A lot more pleasant to watch.
Just a widowed farm woman from the great agricultural state of Iowa. I find myself staying up late watching these videos. I do enjoy seeing the differences between Scotland and the USA. Tell Mrs. GP she rocks.
It might not be 100 percent better but it looks much much better than before. You do great work for these animals.
I have two questions for you one is about your knife work. I was wondering with digital dermatitis when you cut it with your knife and then you cut another part of the foot are you spreading that dermatitis. And second do you have a much older brother LOL
Great job young man. She looks alot better.
Those close up were awesome. Thanks so much guys
I have read the negativity you have been given I watch the care you give to each cow, trimming is something to be trained for and I see what you have done
good repair, happy cow, keep well,,
Hi Graeme...so good to see you again. I love how you love on the cows and compare them to puppies. I'm sure they love the attention you give them. God Bless LuvYs! Bye from Ohio USA 🇺🇸
A very delicate job this time!👍
Glad I already know and have the song you played in the background, otherwise I'd be trying to find out who's song it is.
Aww...I love watching you pet and pat the cows after a good trim!
This is oddly relaxing
I live in New Hampshire, USA. It is a small town that has several dairy farms in the area. I love stopping and spending time petting them. Just love cows 🐄. It is also fun to have a calf suck your fingers.
You done a beautiful job again!❤
Definitely it looks much better, than it was :). Im happy for this girl
It's amazing what you did for this cow so very interesting, it great to see the love you have for them all .have you ever seen a cow with the hoof pulled off,and if so can you do something for them 🤔 keep up the good work
I agree with you that functionality is beautiful
That's a nice walk Miss Cow has - she's in no pain and that's the best thing!
