Dude! Get a Dremel! Just be careful which extension you use cause it can heat up.
So this vid was 3 weeks ago. I’m looking forward to a follow up vid next week
O certo é dar uma boa lavada nos casacos dos animais
Hi, here from Ontario, Canada and must say just subscribed. I am so impressed how you take care of those animals, CHEERS TO YOU! I have never seem anything like this, Even the way you pat them in such a caring way. Yah I know you get paid to do it, but that aside because you still need to make a living but you go above and beyond with your interaction with animals WOW, keep up the good work!
I'm sure he's explained it in a video I haven't seen, but I'm going to ask: what's the reason for hitting the hoof with a torch before gluing (epoxying?) on the block? Is it to dry it, to warm it, so fire-polish it?
I like the follow ups that show the healing progression.
Hi Graham you've done a great job with 219 ( Grace's foot ) she's walking so much better, persistence is working, she's a beautiful girl I wish you were able to fix her completely, another great video thanks for sharing.
What do you charge
Do you ever do cultures to see what the bacteria is....alot of e coli perhaps due to all the cow poop?
Do the cows get anything for pain?poor babys
So glad she's doing better! @alistair clement Thank you for sending me the link!
That cheeky little look back at end of video. Cow appreciated the trim
I'm sure you have a special place in heaven waiting for you for all the mercy you have shown God's creatures. God bless you and your family and keep you well.
I love watching your videos. It is fascinating to see your work and it’s apparent you have a sense of pride in what you do. The added bonus is that the cows benefit greatly from your expertise! Thank you for sharing these glimpses into your profession!
This man really knows what he is doing !!
Is the cow rotting or is the hoof rotting?! 😄
Praying for cow 219!! That looks so painful. Thank Goodness that u are able to help this young lady!!!
That bow was everything! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
GP - what is the title and name of the singer for your theme song?
You really are doing the Lord's work. Excellent job

219 looks like a very tollorant cow didn't seem at all irritated, I know this because I'm an intolerant permanently irritated cow 😁
could it be cancer ? seems like the hoof turn into bad flesh
Poor girl!
5:26 thank you !🥲
You put an acid on an open wound? That must hurt like a son of a gun. Just cut a lemon you will find out if you have any small cuts on your hand. It hurts.
Shouldn't that be 'fixing a cow's rotting hoof'?
girl was def walking a lot better compared to the prior video
Hello. I'm from Russia. My name is Alexey. I have been working with cattle for 5 years. Please tell me what kind of red solution you use to treat ulcers and after what time do you take cows for re-examination. Thank you in advanse, I have subscribed to you, I try to watch it whenewer possible.
It's Iodine, and he'll recheck at between 1 week to 1 month (or possibly at the next routine trim), depending on the severity of the ulcer.
What type of glue are you using?
these have to be milk cows no point in this if its a meat
this is so satisfying but so nast, lol
I wonder if standing on shit and piss had something to do with that wound
She's glad that you are looking after her. So am I. Watching with interest!!! Cheers Ausgranny 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍👍👍👍
I've discovered this chanel 2 days ago, and have been binge watching it ever since.
keep us posted on cow 219
Would it be possible to give every cow block as a standard measure, similar to horseshoes?
Poor baby. 😭😭
Do you ever model out the blocks?
Não e possível que sou o único brasileiro aqui kkkk
Looked back like thanks bro😂
You realy do a job well done I So love to see how you work with your knife. And purple grinder.Granny90

She looks a little like her afternoon nap was interrupted. What a calm, quiet lady. Glad to see so much progress already!
This man is true God keeping the cows safe and walking perfect! Excellent service for them! Have a great day everyone!!!
Excellent work! She will remember what you did for her.
Great job Hoof GP Keep us posted loved the way she looked back as if to say thanks Animals know who is good to them 👏👏 Graham
I wonder how long it takes to go from the perfectly healthy foot to the flesh hanging out? I think I recall hearing that cows don’t act like they have a problem till it bad.
Healing thoughts 219 think she should have a name 🐄🐄🐄🐄LIZZIE 🐄🐄🐄🐄
So I've watched a ton of these videos for the past week now, and I have a question: Is the reason that all these cows have such problems with their hooves that they are spending a lot of time standing inside, not moving very much, in their own muck? I feel like cows that spend more time in a field with plenty of room and dryer ground would have less problems?
Lol, i was expecting to see you fix a hoof on a rotting cow. So dissapointing.
At what point would amputation of that (a) necrotic toe be in order?
I love watching you leave these beautiful beasts happier more comfortable ❤️ & this one is especially wonderful!
Животные говорят вам СПАСИБО !!!
I’m just curious how many shaving are on the ground after the normal trimming of a days work
Just curious has you ever had a case where a cow's hoof was so bad and so lame that it would be unfixable and possibly more recommended to amputate or sadly euthanize the cow?
That’s the first time I’ve seen you use water to clean the cows hooves
I'm glad to see she's doing better
Very sad...everything sold out.
Cow's rotting hoof.
I’ve noticed you washed this cow’s sore foot before/during trimming (which is clearly due to the necrosis) but most of the time don’t wash all feet before trimming. Is there a reason you don’t usually wash cows feet before working on them?
Well done!
Great job mate.
Why do you trim it until it’s down to flesh??? Someone explain??
Poor cow, glad you are looking after her.
Ur a magician. Can definitely tell which farms have a better care routine than others! Keep us posted on her progress.
It is still scary to this horse person watching you remove so much of the cows hoof. I am stunned that the cow has an excellent chance of recovery but also know if anyone can maker her sound, it’s you
Why is the Vet not taking care of this cow? She seems to need more help. I feel so sorry for this Cow! ☹️
This cow a straight G, 209 outa stockton
Thank you for a follow up, hope to see another one in the short future.
The blood And flesh Made me have to look away..
Nice Job!
Cow #219’s progress and healing makes for a happy heart. Thank you for making the world a better place, one trim at a time.
So there was no vet intervention?? Feels bad man, thanks for trimming her and helping her
This is what I've been waiting for
Great to see the difference in just 4 weeks and I really hope she continues to improve. I miss your longer videos showing a variety of hooves, an we get a longer vid again soon?
Have you stopped using the paste or does the powder work better (differently)?
Goodness, your magic powder made a difference - shrinking all the nasty swelling back down a lot. Fingers crossed for Miss Cow - and I wonder what that look back was for? Thanking you maybe? Or perhaps throwing a nasty cow curse your way? Though, she must know that she feels ever so much better after being in the crush, so I think it was a thank you.
Good luck 219, you can do it!
The cows and bulls visited by the Hoof GP have no idea how good they have it! I was watching a TV show with my kids yesterday about a rural veterinary practice. The vet gets called out to see about a black Angus' sore hoof. I missed what was wrong exactly, but there is the bull with his back leg in the air, somewhat stabilized by a series of ropes. The poor bull looses his balance and soon falls over completely, leg still in the air. The vet "trims" the hoof with some nippers, applies some white powder (salicylic acid, I think) with some cotton and a wrap and calls it good. There is no attention paid to the other claw, no crush, no proper tools (knife or grinder) no iodine, and not a single block in this entire scenario. I'm thinking this is so sad, knowing there's a better way! You do great work Graeme!
Grammar !!!! so important.
Question. In cases like this why not have the vet remove the toe? That would seem the solution to help get the lowest pain and best result. This is an uneducated layperson’s opinion and I would love to hear what an experienced person thinks
I like looking at your videos, I know nothing about farming, my question to you is, why don't you wash the hoofs before you start grinding or cutting?
@Jen Keep thank you, I was wondering
He addresses this in other videos. Basically, extra water on every cow wastes time and is simply not necessary. It's dangerous because makes things muddy and slippery. (Imagine the pool after 60 cows!) Also, electrical equipment and water don't mix. With the first pass of the grinder, all the muck is gone. If he needs to take a good look at a repeat customer, he'll use a spray bottle, or a bucket and a sponge to see how things look before setting in.
Wow that improvement was amazing! Love the work you do!
Didn’t use blue glue on the block, dislike
Good on ya, Graeme! Thanks for sharing her progress. 💜
You are truly a miracle worker. Love watching you right before bedtime, as you’re saving the world one cow at a time.
Poor girl, but she’s in good hands. She’ll get better with your care I’m sure.
Wonderful!
Say, GP, why is it called a crush
It looked like cow 219 looked back to you to say thank you!
does the hoof really matter if the whole cow is rotting?
Hmm... so you have HIV then get an ingrown toenail ? Since you don't produce good milk to pay for the care your treatment should be less...
I'm not sure how or why this is in my recommendations. I don't even own cattle. I don't even have a normal pet. But it's still oddly satisfying to watch.
As a kid they looked like killer bulls out to kill the matador - after working on a dairy farm the view of cows changed to big old lazy dogs that drop pies everywhere.
