POV of a Farrier in Yorkshire I Trouble with Trudy

[@beachbum7425]

Fantastic idea with the rubber pads on Trudy. I had a retired thoroughbred that had terrible laminitis, my farrier came up with some pretty ingenious shoes for her. Farriers are as equally important to the health of the horse as a veterinarian. Thank you Sam for showing us your talents. 👍🏻

[@Swfarriers]

Yeh with these cases you have to think outside the box to help the best you can, it’s always great to work as a team with your vet to get the best possible results. Thank you for watching means a lot glad you enjoyed the video 😊

[@jillbeattie2758]

Excellent work❤

[@tinahickman6300]

​@@SwfarriersI saw a video recently of a ferrier using some time of clear rubber shoe. He used a heat gun to put it together.

[@m.e.5]

The bonus education on horses and cheeky smack talk! You’re a technician, esp w these special cases. Love how you’ve got a community to tap into for extra support

[@Rose-el6on]

Agree

[@nanabananafodor4870]

Hope we see a follow up on Trudy. I appreciate seeing these more unusual cases. You really improved her quality of life.

[@Swfarriers]

yeh sure I'm goner do another video when I visit her next, thank you for watching!

Where is the link for your hoof balm? Can it be used on dog foot pads?

[@victoriascales1977]

“It’s very important to always have that student mindset, you never know everything”. This is why you’re are so good at what you do. I’m a nurse and I always have the belief that the nurses who “know everything” are the most unsafe nurses. I know nothing about horses, but I’ve loved learning through your content. Your videos show that you care and love what you do. Thank you!

[@colleenwadley8543]

Well said. I was thinking very much the same.

[@sheilaperkins1883]

I really enjoyed watching this

[@rachelweinstein9008]

Ditto on both accounts. I’m also a nurse.

[@pauleenwardbrown]

Is the problem with her hooves diet? I know when human beings have flaky nails it's because of a lack of some nutrition

[@sailorlac]

Glue on shoes have come a long way, beautiful job. Trudy was very cooperative and I hope she's happier and more comfortable. "No hoof no horse."

[@elainedaprano9130]

I appreciate that he tried to imagine how she will cope and move with the difference in feeling for Trudy and how she will move and balance, while adjusting to the difference in the feel of the shoe.

[@ritawood2772]

Sign of a great farrier, always learning. It shows why you are such a good farrier and an excellent teacher. That was such interesting content. The more I watch, the greater you are, and the more I learn. A day when something is learned is never wasted. Thanks!

[@Swfarriers]

thank you, I'm glad you enjoy the content I'm new to making longer content like this so I'm also learning as I go on how to present it. its so nice to have nice feedback like this! thanks for watching hope you have great day! 😊

Just save your KZbin money! You are young and good looking and are passionate about your craft. And have a videographer, big plus! I love your accent, it's sexy but I don't always understand what you are saying, so I watch you again 😊

[@ashleighmackenzie8670]

This channel is going to blow up very soon and very quickly. I always call it on the channels that will, and I’ve not been wrong yet. I really hope so for Sam anyway. It’s people like him that actually really deserve a big audience. He’s not only teaching his craft, which tbh is actually so interesting and cool the way he explains all these wee things to us. But he’s an extremely likeable guy. And I can tell he’s going to do very well from this. I’m excited to see it☺️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💕

[@Swfarriers]

hi Ashleigh, thank you so much for the kind words means a lot i really appreciate everyone that takes time to tune in and watch my content, thanks for watching 😊

[@missmuffet3874]

I think you’re right. ❤

[@kellybeaver8699]

These videos are so interesting!! I don't own a horse anymore, but anything that has to do with horses I watch. You are so skilled at your craft. Hopefully, you are able to teach many. I am from Pennsylvania US and I love listening to you. The horses and Tom are lucky to have you!! Lol

[@itsmememe3489]

Sam’s arms though ❤😍😍😍

[@user-zv6hg4ih3e]

Love how much you care about your horses 🙌🏼

[@mygirldarby]

That was so interesting when he showed the vestigial toes. Evolution is amazing. Horses used to have four toes and claws. Over millions of years it turned into a hoof but you can still see vestigial toes!

[@RisingOfThePhoenix221]

Troodee really does seems to be quite pleased with her new shoes. Yay! Who knew Tom was so mouthy--eh! You guys are too funny. Good one!

[@sadiej4867]

My heart goes out to Trudy. I cannot wait to see if this heals her hooves and saves her soles❤. Simply adore the care you and Tom bring - nice shout out to Peter - he sounds like another master in the trade🔥. Keep sharing her progress and cannot wait to see if her horn clears up-

[@Swfarriers]

she's doing so much better already! I'm definitely goner do a follow up video when i visit her next will all see the results together! thank you for watching.

[@lynnnightingale633]

Super interesting! Keep us updated as to Trudy’s progress please 😊

[@GC-ny9yy]

Thank you Sam (Super size! ) and Tom (Tinky winky Tom , believe that if you will!)...... great banter guys. What an interesting video and although I have no knowledge of horse shoeing you make it look amazing, what a skill to have. What a difference the shoes which you put onto Trudy made to her walking. She looked so happy at the end of the video. Tom is a lucky young man having such a good instructor, what a team!! must be a pleasure to go to work each day. Despite being a country bumpkin and having had a farrier in the family when I was a baby, had no idea of the knowledge required to keep horses feet in good health Please keep doing the videos, so interesting. Am sure we will see Tom progress also, thank you so much guys. Graeme

[@Swfarriers]

thank you Graeme im glad you enjoyed the video! theres so much depth to farriery im excited to share my journey with everyone! thankyou for watching

[@MichelleHays-jm6mr]

Great video! Perfect mix of humor and educational content. I love that you’re not too proud to say you’ve never done this technique and you talk to other farriers for advice etc Thank you for helping sweet Trudy feel better ❤️

[@Swfarriers]

thank you for watching! im glad you enjoyed it

[@carlenec4403]

Your expertise in caring for all of these animals, particularly Trudy, is truly remarkable and comparable to that of the veterinarians.

Hey Sam and Tom, another fab video. 10 years from now I'll still be watching, and commenting and will be able to say I'm an OG! Watching you transition from Instagram I'm in awe of how brilliant these longer form videos are. I've learnt so much from all your videos and loved seeing you apply an innovative technique to a challenging case. Every day is a school day, you're a true professional by being humble enough to discuss cases with your peers. Your delivery is so natural, clear and the way you explain every step makes it easy to understand. Tom, keep up the good support for Sam, you're so lucky to have a mentor. I enjoy the banter too, work would be more tedious without a bit of banter. I'd love to see a Q&A with you and one with you both, a bit of a get to know you style video. I think it would be interesting to do a video on the evolution of horse shoeing techniques. Have a great weekend guys xx ❤

I stumbled onto your videos and your demeanor and ability to connect with the horse amazed me, so naturally I needed to like you and it opened up more videos for me to see if what I thought I was seeing was real. It was and that made me feel happy just like you make the horses feel happy. I love to watch you work and how the horse will try to show you what you showed it. A bonifide caring and love. Well done! You are a special person that loves his work and the horses that you help are lucky to have you. Also, the young man helping you is awesome. Teach him well!

[@deniseforsyth6183]

Sam this was fascinating. She is truly a pretty little mare, such a lady. I'm praying she will improve. This was so worth the time you spent with her. Can you imagine our feet hurting like that all the time, going barefoot and feeling every stone. When I was a young girl, I read James Herriot's books. I thought he was wonderful, his caring and devotion to the animals. You remind me a lot of him. You have that special quality that puts them at ease. Let's them know you are there to help, make life better for them. Some farriers I have seen are so rough, the pull and jerk, well I can't bear to watch. I'm a Nana in the US, North Carolina . My name is Denise, 64 years old. My grandparents on my daddy's side had a farm. I learned so much from my Pa, he valued the animals on his farm. I have always dreamed of going to England. While I'm older and may never make it over, I can watch you tend to your hoofed animals, keep Tom in line😉 and see the beautiful countryside. Hon I do have one question, how long will that glue hold the pad on for Trudy? I hope it's strong & won't be poppin' off. So glad you could help her. I have already subscribed. Til next time Sam...stay well, safe & happy when ya can. They need ya out there.👍💗💗💗💗💗🐴😃

I never go anywhere without a book tucked in purse, car....when I found Sam, I couldn't help but remember JH. He was such a wonder with those animals. It was in his soul. God gave him that gift. Those fellas seem like peas in a pod to me. It's nice to find someone who appreciates Sam, but also James Herriot. Thank you again my friend😃.

He got his revenge though, the second the twitch came off his nose he double barrelled him big time. I was only 15 at the time, but other than that nope, had lovely farriers. Long term though, maybe thats why, I knew them all well. Much like our Sam and Tom. Always having a laugh.Kept up with new methods for foit problems. Looks like i was lucky.
