As a kid (60 years ago), I spent a lot of time on my Grandma's dairy farm. I don't remember a hoof trimmer coming to check the cows' hoofs. Back then, cows were out in the fields all the time. Was hoof trimming something that wasn't done at the time or was it because they were out in the field. I remember it being so much fun to go to the farm. Riding on the old Ford tractor fenders, taking lunch (fried chicken, mashed potatoes & gravey, vegetables & biscuits)to the helpers out in the field, watching the milking in the 3 stalls & playing in the barn. The only thing I didn't like was the mean Holstein bull. I still have nightmares about him!

[@AgnesIona]

I wondered as well. He does seem to mention a lot that the bruising, ulcers, etc occur in the "usual places" because of the cement floors they are on.

[@sylviajones2865]

You know, not only cows didn't have trouble with cement back in the day, neither did people. Now that we sit n walk on cement, our backs, knees and feet are hurting all the time.

[@briellem8587]

Hi! Usual lurker, but I noticed something (good!) that I wanted to mention. [You guys always do so much for the cows and are always great. This moment was just so subtle I wanted to comment!] At 5:45 you can see how much strength you needed to cut that harder horn on the medial part of the claw, but then about 5:54, when you moved outward, you can visibly see the pressure change of your hand- in like a millisecond of time- to be gentle on the part of the horn. I don't even know the right words to describe it- almost an instinctual reflex after when the knife just brushed that softer part. I had to rewatch to confirm what I saw- I usually look more that the hoof. Long story short: I just wanted to let you know how it's so clear how amazingly skilled you are with trimming and how careful you are to not harm the cows. You are truly amazing and I just wanted to point it out!

I stared rubbing the iodine on my face with my night cream moisturizer. When I woke up the next day the swelling has gone down in my ear didn’t hurt anymore.
