It’s incredible that a cow can recover from an injury like that after receiving the proper care. As a layman, I would have assumed that their weight and environment would make recovery from an injury like that impossible, but I’m happy to see that there are professionals like yourself out there to help animals live pain free.

[@billsargent3407]

I owned horses. This stuff would have ended them... Cows are tougher then nails

[@cindyn7512]

I'm amazed too and I've kept a small herd of cows for 15 years. There are some biologic differences that make them able to recover from things that would surely kill a human; they have a higher body temp so some bacteria can't survive in their bodies. Also, their feet have a LOT of blood circulation b/c they can stand in the wet, cold, freezing conditions (of the upper midwest in the US) over a length of time and not get frost bite. Finally, their hoof horn grows really fast, much faster than say, our finger nails. And as Graeme has pointed out the environment they live in has a big impact. My beefers live outside year round and in 15 years I have had only one hoof problem of note and I have never had them trimmed. My pet dairy cows are a different story, partly I think b/c they are on a higher nutrition plane compared to the beef herd.

[@gorillaau]

​@@billsargent3407 Cows seem to be amazing at hiding their discomfort. Horses not so much.

[@windhelmguard5295]

@@gorillaau as far as my knowledge goes it actually depends on the type of horse. to my understanding the problem is that most horses are just bone, sinew and skin from the knee down, which is an issue when their legs get damaged, injuries to the lower leg of most commonly seen horses almost always go down to the bone, where there are also arteries and injuries to the bone almost never heal properly. cows and larger draft horses have a lot more soft tissue on their leg bones which keeps them protected and allows for them to heal better. another huge advantage cows have over horses is that cows have two hooves on each foot, so if one is injured you can put a block on the other so the bad one can heal, horses only have one hoof on each foot and if that goes bad, there is little you can do.

The term "doe-eyed" didn't actually come from deer when it was first coined, it came from female cows.

He took such good care of his animals because he had to depend on each for its job. However come Saturday night there was a dance and pot luck dinner at somebody’s barn, my grandfather was the one who made the moonshine, his shine was so good J. Edgar Hoover tried to arrest my granddad for his shine. The shine was kept cool in a dug out under the chicken house and the geese kept bitting Mr. Hoover so he offered my father $20. to slide under the coupe to get the shine so they could arrest my grandfather, my dad threw a big rock at Mr. Hoover and told him to, “get back into his fancy car and leave my father alone, there ain’t no shine under the chickens.” So Mr. Hoover got into his car angry as heck because nobody fears him then he wasn’t the big FBI guy he was later in his years.

Well... Just WOW! Another great trim and execution of exacting trimming!! LOVE your work, Craig, Kev, Mrs. GP, and the boys, and the pups..❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸🙌👋☕☕🦬

[@catherinebrady2640]

Graeme, this was horrific and impressive at the same time. Well done and thanks for the lesson.

[@upscale9109]

That hoof literally looks like that one meat dish you left out for too long and the mold got to it before you threw it away.

[@N1K1_meow]

I really love and appreciate how you leave your mistakes in the video - it feels a lot more authentic, and it’s good that you turn it into an educational opportunity by explaining what you did wrong.

[@Co-1475]

There is something about this channel that makes me think deeply and wish for a more peaceful and earthy life. It’s half me loving animals and half me loving this guys outlook on life. Fantastic channel and videos!

[@kaylanhudson2169]

I know she’s so thankful and relieved!! Thank you for helping these beautiful creatures ❤

[@gokuxsephiroth4505]

"Quiet, please!" Is so nice! Nicer than any of my teachers were to me when I was a child lol But that poor cow! I hope she was okay

[@nicholaspretel2637]

I've been watching your videos since 2020 and it still amazes me to see the healing process and care put into these cows. Thank you for the videos!

[@heathermatthews8286]

You describing the smell reminds me of my patients that I've had to treat with deep wounds. My patients were in so much pain. I'm so thankful you try your very best to do whatever is necessary to give the pain relief and a chance at recovering. Great job!! 🐄

[@jacquelinedavis6607]

His compassion and love for these bovines is for more than I expected. When he mentioned how he loved cows' eyes. He believed they look into your soul, and where my eyes teared up and ran down my face. I have had little contact with cows unfortunately. As a kid, I would ride my bike to where a lot of cows lived. As soon as I stopped, a herd of them lumbered up to the fence very curious. They were gentle and let me scratch the top of their head briefly. I wasn't sure if they were just curious or liked the attention. I loved them and still do. Now, watching these clips, I have thankfully learned so much more.

[@jacquelinedavis6607]

My story is exactly the same. I would ride my bike to where the cows lived. You perfectly said the cows lumbered up to you. Such a visual site. They don't get in a hurry not with their weight! 😅 I believe you are right about being so curious. And Graeme is right about how their eyes look deep into your soul. I did pet them, but I was young and timid. My interest in cows began at my grandfather and grandmother's farm. My dad grew up there but became a chemist. I never tried of my memories of the cows and the other residents of their farm.

[@Lesaucissondujour]

I loved that there was no fluff in the edit! No lyricised music, no intro scenes... just good content!

[@madizzle90]

Same. So many animal videos have a bunch of annoying music and dumb captions added.

[@galekelsey224]

The way you cut through the hoof looks very gentle to me. It seems so obvious that you're proceeding very carefully and trying not to cause any pain. I'm so glad you're able to help this sweet girl. Thank you...🤗🐄💗

[@777sLc1]

Its so nice to see people being nice and careing to these animals. And thats why i like watching these vids.

[@Swalka1991]

I'm so glad I found your channel. My great-uncle owned a dairy farm when I was young and I remember Mary - his lead who thought she was a dog - very fondly. I think about her and my family everytime I see one of your videos even though Missouri is a long way from Scotland. You treat these cows like my uncle, so I know you love them 💖

[@cdfranklin1599]

The other cows are like "Cooome on already! Hurry up!" 😂 So glad you were there to help this baby. Even if the others cows were impatient. 😆

[@Codys-girl]

Poor cow :( that must be INCREDIBLY painful (at least, before it was rotting). Thanks for saving her and so many others

[@TikkaHorse]

Early in the video, looking at this sweeties face, I was thinking about how soft and kind her eyes looked! Got super excited when you talked about their eyes later 🙂

[@bigstar75]

Graeme, thank you so much for helping these wonderful cows. I love their faces and beautiful eyes too.

[@Donkeh245]

I know nothing about cattle or any kind of farm amimals but watching horses and cows have their hooves done is so so satisfying, its like watching someone carve wax.

[@9adam4]

The genuine care that you feel for these animals always comes through. Thank you for sharing!

[@JenniferThacker1969]

You always amaze me!!! I can usually see the problem but this time I had no clue until you started trimming her hoof!!! You are so precise with your knife!!! I'm sure she'll be filling better in no time!!! Stay blessed!!! Love you guys so much!!! 🤗❤️🙏🏻

[@maggsbufton1969]

I like that Graeme also explains how a rotting hoof smells as well, you can’t really understand exactly what Graeme does everyday and I love his dedication in making these cows comfortable and his love for these cows..

[@DavidBlake27055]

You demonstrate high levels of care for the animal and skill of your trade. Thanks for another excellent video.

[@coachcraven8279]

Even after watching so many videos, it's still a bit mind boggling how you can take nearly an entire side of a hoof off and the cow will heal. Truly remarkable.

[@pauls5745]

Poor baby! She's had expert care and I'm sure she's well on the way to a problem-free recovery.

[@to_crazy7478]

You know, I'm a gamer and plant specialist, i usualy watch funny videos or some random documentarys, but with every video, i find myself, sitting here with a cup of coffee, watching closely and staring intently to identify and learn the problems. Don't think i'll ever need the knowledge, but one never knows. I like your vids, keep it up!

[@peggyesquibel8353]

Ouch! I can’t imagine the smell! I love the side view shot. It very clearly shows just how much you had to trim away. I love the care you give these beautiful animals! What a gift you have!

[@adeleperry4311]

I also appreciate the fact that you tried to numb the area, before cutting it.

[@brendasnow8255]

It looks so painful. I’m fascinated by the way you treat these injuries., and happy that you’re able to give so much relief.

[@jeanlove8510]

loving these hoof trimming videos so much, i find your craft absolutely fascinating and honourable. The relief you bring to these beautiful animals makes you a saint to my eyes.

[@clarcrab2]

I am an 80 year old woman who thoroughly enjoys watching your videos. You are so loving and kind to these cows. Your voice is soft and soothing. The very first video I watched, it was so hard to understand you. (I am from the USA.) But now, I don’t miss a word. You are also extremely funny. And very cute! One question comes to mind. As hard as some parts are, do your hands and/or arms ever get sore or tired? I’ve ordered your cup. Can’t wait to see your sweet face as I use it!

[@Cat-tastrophee]

Graeme is so gentle with his trimming, slespecially compared to every other trimmer I've seen! He's elevated it to an art form, honestly.

[@deborahjohnson6533]

I must admit that I haven't watched your channel for sometime, but decided to day to watch..AMAZING!!!! Not the least bit boring and in fact very appreciative of the work you do to make the cows life better..Okay I am hooked again.

[@oldvedub1]

Love when someone like yourself helps an animal in need. God Bless you!

[@christinebakker3935]

Thank you for treating every case with care and concern. I really like when you are gentle with these girls and I’m sure they would love you if they could speak. It’s just amazing to see them heal and survive!!! Admiring from Derwent Alberta, Canada.

[@TheFaithfulFlock]

Why is hoof carving so satisfying to watch! ❤ Thank you for helping the cows 🥰

[@milesfinnmike9019]

I want to be an all animal vet and these always seem to interest me my mom watches you all the time and now it’s all I watc h!

[@likeorasgod]

I don't know why but it's always so refreshing to see what you do to help these animals get back on their feet 100%. If I had seen these videos (We didn't have KZbin than) when I was younger I might of taken a different carrier path. Keep up the good work man.

[@cindycreateforlife]

She is so beautiful and calm. I am trying to imagine how you stay so focused when there is a wretched smell come at you, dead tissue of any kind is quite nauseating to say the least! She will be as good as new now that she has seen the GP!💕🇨🇦

[@SandyM-ui6xv]

It's satisfying to know these cows are being well taken care of, plus your voice is very calming😊

[@JosephNunez-f5c]

Who else here cuz they can't fall asleep

[@beckstervanc4947]

You asked this a year ago but the question is as relevant now as it was then!

[@kmcgz]

5am...yup

[@Trucktaylor]

Definitely me lol

[@raquelescobar7413]

2am so yep 😂

[@kurratulainesha5892]

Me

[@nanomachines2985]

I'm not an animal expert, but I get the feeling that sometimes they know or have this instinct that tells them when they're being helped, that's why they're so calm when humans intervene. You see it in other videos with other species, cutting fishing line, releasing from a trap, this video. It's kind of cool. Anyway, someone correct me if I'm wrong because it could be that this cow is very well just chilling since it can't move, feels nothing and is only wondering when it can go graze again.

[@em6577]

The secret life of an insomniac ....yup thats me... i know how to fix toilets, heal hooves and fight bears, yet i still cant find out how to check out of the wide awake club😪

[@rachelbarton-spencer1888]

Yeah been there done that Worked graveyards I've been up for 2 days😂

[@DPowered2]

Accidentally watched one cow hoof video and now i keep getting them and i keep watching them
