From one 3rd year vet student to another: I'm glad to hear you explain the underlying disease process so the general public can understand. I definitely understand and sympathize with feeling burned out with the book learning and exams. It's a tough 3 years of learning for sure. Keep pushing forward and you'll be done with school before you know it.

[@maverick_vet]

thanks

[@mariroberson-soranch1476]

Great job to you both for hanging in there! I couldn’t get over the years of book work before getting down to the real case work. Otherwise I would have become a vet. So kudos to you both!!!

[@yoBigWave]

I spent a couple hours walking the big dogs at the local shelter recently. My dog passed away a year ago and I've been missing her. Even if you can't adopt right now, I never realized how important it is for the animals to have visitors especially the bigger dogs that don't get many people to play with.

[@reeceraur8735]

Great point! I’m feeling compelled to volunteer too!

[@KATinBLACK]

Yes, lots of domesticated animals enjoy being around humans, even cattle and birds. I’ll feed lotta stray cats and a couple will come by for something other than food. Maybe just to say hi or get a little pet

I’m a 65 year old horse owner with laminitis, and I truly appreciate the close-up video of the trimming and explanation, as I do my own trimming . I’ve always wondered if I’ve been doing it right and watching your video confirms I am doing a decent job for the horse.

What I do is I help other horses that have been abused at the track and we helped them get back into shape and help them start trusting people again and I love going there I almost go every week and I am from Florida and I love your channel I watch your videos every single day. 🐎

[@joanlovelace6865]

Had that experiance showing and training horses. I took a mare to train for pleasure classes that was off the track!! Racing and pleasure are OPPOSITE in traing so i had my hands full to say the least!! I spent the winter working her every day getting her confidence rain sleet what ever the weather was i was on her. Long story short gave her back to her owner that had a trainer that was afraid to train her. This trainer took her that summer and ended up 3rd Pleasure Horse in the country. Proud of that mare even though she she cracked my pelic bone during her training which i wasn't aware of it at the time other than my leg got completely numb after the incident every time i got on a horse for quite some time. I didn't stop riding because i had another horse in training lol. Oh well lived through it learning something new every day and lonin it!!

We have been giving large tips to our waitress since Covid-19. Last Christmas one of the waitresses we really like she was financially strapped and we gave her a $100 tip. We have always done things like this like paying for individuals meals when you know they are struggling. Helping our neighbor family across the way with their home while there daughter had long stays at St. Judes in Memphis TN. By the way she is doing wonderful! It’s just the way we were raised. Pay it forward. 💖

[@burnished]

My mom just moved into an apartment after several years of homelessness (me as well, but found support a year ago), I went through everything in her storage and brought it to her, removed stuff she didn't want anymore, etc. Helped her move in and continue to support her. Its been a relief now, because we get to have family dinners again and just make better memories now. I'm in Southern Maine, its finally spring! Although the April showers have started a little too early lol.

I really enjoy your vids I trim and shoe our own horses because we could never get a farrier to show up when they said they would. I have a bad back so it usually takes me more than one day to finish a horse.

[@joanlovelace6865]

1st off CONGRATULATIONS on your vet school education and great future for you and your family 👍👍 You are very knowledgeable in your videos,,, confidence will come. I've been out of the horse business for some time but your videos bring back that excitement ,thank you so much!!! With this foundered pony your shoeing brings back SO MANY memories. In the beginning if my Quarter Horse buying i bought a beautiful registered gelding that was foundered and i bought him to show!! I didn't know about foundered horses BUT i learned real quick!! This was actually a good lesson to learn for me right off the bat because it made me very aware of this condition and that NEVER happened again. So keeping shoes on this horse and making this horses feet "look good" showing him weekly was one hard lesson ingrained in my brain forever😉 Thankfully i got a GOOD trimmer LIKE YOU! He ended up winning Jr Pleasure of the state and reserve Halter Horse of the state. LOTS of corrective shoeing,lameness, wearing pads, and like you said it was his front feet. Your videos are FANTASTIC and i watch EVERYONE!! BLESS YOU🕊🕊

[@ajsassafrass6883]

Montana girl here. I don't like talking about nice things I do, I try to just do little things every day. Bring my co-workers coffee. Always stop when someone is trying to cross the street. I volunteer in food work a lot and am very passionate about feeding ppl and kiddos, but just putting a smile on a stranger's face or getting a thank you wave is enough to keep me active in the community. I've helped ppl at the dump if they have a big load or big items. Taking someone's grocery cart for them. Etc.

[@pinebee634]

My cats, dogs I've owned, and my mare are all rescues, and I'll be rescuing honey bees from a water meter this week. Also helped my good beekeeper friend who had pneumonia by figuring she needed an aspirator (breathing exerciser) and her doctor concurred - got her one and she is happily using it!

I recently had my best friend pass away from cancer. He called me the night before he passed away to say by and that he loved me. He also asked that I watch out for his family and that if I can help them out if they needed anything. Well, some months later in talking with his widow in AZ she had been left with quite a large property and storage facilities packed with a lifetime of stuff. I made a plan to head down there to help her out. I worked on the property for 3 months and was happy to help. She was just overwhelmed at the time and now she is in a better position to move forward in her life.

It's amazing to see their progress from the start of the summer program to the end of the summer program 😊 Best of luck in vet school! Can't wait to hear more about your experience with vet school!

[@terryhanna777]

I've watched several different horse shoeing channels on KZbin and you are the BEST! I don't own or ride horses but I would LOVE to. They are such beautiful, majestic creatures! Watching you shoe a horse is just so amazing, and I love the way you treat the horses you work with. The information and explanations you give are so clear. Even to me who knows nothing about it. You'll be a great vet. Good luck and God Bless you in your life and career!

[@JenSalvatore21]

I’m from Arkansas and I just went and picked up a friend’s horse for her because she just moved to my area! She hasn’t been in the same city as her horse for almost two years and it felt really good to help her out. Excited to see The Man Pinto Bean!

[@gwenmartinsen3979]

I have a Hackney pony mare. She's 10. She's close to 14 hands tall and substantial. She was a little overweight, not much. She started having pain in her legs and feet. We couldn't figure it out. She was in a lot of pain. Anyway, long story short, she has Equine Metabolic Syndrome, and has chronic founder in all her feet because of that. But now with a change of diet and corrective shoeing she appears pain - free and happy. We're not going to ride her or breed her but she's busy acting like a protective mom to her brother and our goats. We have a special needs child, one of his problems is autism, she LOVES him and he loves her. She is very sweet. Animals are just incredible, aren't they. You are an amazing person. You're so busy, working hard in school, hands -- on learning, teaching and giving back to others. Bless you.

[@taylorlarson1534]

My act of kindness: So over covid lockdown I "grew out of" most of my horse show gear (jackets, pants, etc) (just kidding I gained a bit of weight). I am into eventing, and I ride at a barn that teaches lessons to children and young adults who have been through the foster care program. They typically are riding in jeans and sneakers, but riding and having fun none the less. Since my show gear didn't fit me anymore, I gifted it all to a girl who really wanted to start competing and had been taking lessons on a pony names Pumpkin. It's a bit big on her, but she will grow 😄🥰 now she can comfortably and confidently hit the pony club shows.

[@JOE-on4pi]

Awesome channel! My act of service doesn’t have to do with horses per say, I volunteer for a organization through my county’s district attorneys office that works with troubled teens, one of the things they do in the program is community service in exchange for a criminal record, obviously these kids aren’t hardened criminals 😊. One thing they do is volunteer at a local horse farm that helps children with special needs, so the kids from the program muck stalls, sweep up, and general barn work, they all seem to love the experience and in most cases end up going back to the farm on their own to continue volunteering! It’s definitely a win-win for all involved, I personally have been doing this for about seven years. Thanks again for the videos, and best wishes in your fourth year of Vet school.

Your videos have been a great source of education and entertainment. Thanks for making these videos!

What a great giveaway idea! I'm from Michigan, my act of service is taking out the trash for my neighbors and allowing them to use my trashcan. They have a big family, and it's only me I don't make much trash, so I end up having a lot of space left and let them use it free of charge. We live out in the country and you have to pay for trash removal. I also take care of my landlord's horse, trimming her feet and feeding and exercising her daily. I love your channel, God bless you and yours.

Watching you from Germany! Really like your videos! yesterday I worked on a horse with chronic laminitis all by myself for the first time. At first I was a little nervous because my boss sent me there alone, so I couldn't bug him if I was unsure. But since he had faith in me, so did I. in the end I did a good job!

[@edwardhovitz1753]

I've been motivated to do a specific service for someone the past couple days since watching this video. Last night driving home I got anxious a little because an opportunity had not yet come up. I come from a background where we were raised to realize sometimes you gotta just do the best you can do with what you have rather than what you wish you had so I figured right then then best thing I could do was say some prayers for people I did not know personally but had attended the same event I was coming from. I feel praying for people in this day and age may be one of the best services we can do. Hope that qualifies for one of you giveaways! Thank you for your videos - I find then just really relaxing to watch.

My husband and I have been saving and waiting for several years to buy a nice zero turn mower... we finally we're able to pay cash for one this spring! Now we mow and weed eat our elderly neighbors yard, so she doesn't have to pay a company for services. What makes this even sweeter, is my brother in law just started a side buisness for power washing.... we asked him if he would come and pressure wash our small house, then go up the hill to our neighbors and take care of hers also. She has no idea this is going to happen! She's been saying she wanted her home power washed for years, but we can tell she's on a modest budget. Thank the good Lord, we are able to bless my brother in law and pay him for two jobs at the start of his buisness, and Miss Edith doesn't have to worry about her yard the rest of her days and we can have her home professionally cleaned while supporting family. My husband and I started watching your channel during quarantine last year and we love your videos to learn on a deeper level. You do great work! We have two geldings and live in Jonesborough, TN.

[@ladyfarrier5949]

Looked great! Been a farrier for 21 years now. I've had multiple horses and ponies that I've worked on over the years that looked much worse than this one. Always the first and maybe second trim is the biggest change. Then it's usually upkeep and maintenence. I agree that they'll always have the propensity for foundering again. But if the owner is on top of the diet and their feet are done regularly, the traces of it can almost disappear..... but that's if both feed and regular hoofcare are on the ball consistently.

I have a great temp job at my local hospital helping to move people all around the facility that can't do it on their own. When the temp job ends I will be volunteering to do it. Sometimes ppl are so scared about what test or treatment is coming up and often I am able to share from my personal experiences, sometimes it helps them sometimes not, adding a little humor like telling them that they have unlimited mileage on the wheelchair they are using for the day often brings a smile to their face for a moment or kidding them after they have signed all their paper work that the Marin recruiter will be coming by to take them to boot camp gets a good laugh from our veterans.

[@thesheepwhisperer6546]

I had a mare that foundered once. I was young when I had her. Like 6 or 7 so I don't remember very well all that went into it but I remember her standing under the California pepper tree at the far end of the pasture and not moving for like 3 days. We didn't live there where she was being boarded so we didn't know she hadn't been moving. On the 3rd day the family friend that owned the property told my mom that she hadn't moved. At some point after that my mom called the farrier and the next time we went out to see her she had duct tape wrapped all around her hooves I think to keep them dry since it had rained. We ended up boarding her somewhere else for about 2 months because she would have a dry stall to stay in.

Glad to hear you're going to school to become a vet, such an awesome profession and I admire you for that! I've always wanted to work with animals. Congrats on your third year, going out in the field is the most exciting part 😊 its not a service but just something I love doing, I've always been the emotional support amongst my family and friends - I've talked a few out of ending their life. I love helping people and animals alike. I care for all our animals including physical/mental stimulation, grooming, nail trimming, dental care, etc and assist the family with theirs too. I love donating to several different animal charities and underwater search/rescue teams. I didn't know you had children that's awesome man! Much love, from Kansas

Because of being out and about in my local town a lot for work I have returned many a run away dog to their owners, its something i do a lot more frequently than i thought i would have to. I love the fact that you explain what you're doing and why, it really helps with the understanding of the horses issues and how to make them feel more comfortable. Sending support from Lincolnshire, England!

These videos have helped me sleep many times. I will always look forward to seeing your videos and hearing about you and the things you do.

Thank you for sharing this!!! It is fascinating and you truly are talented! I always feel such relief for the horse after a good trim. I’d like to apprentice under a professional farrier some day...it’s so very satisfying! Many Blessings and returns to you and yours! Congrats on finishing your 3rd year of veterinary school ➰🤍🌟🤍➰

Wow a farrier and a vet. People have a Awesome person when you show up to their barn. Good luck in everything!

[@sonynewasch7061]

It's very educational watching and listening. It makes it much easier differentiating between a good or a bad hoof trimmer. And pls keep up with the personal updates, too. :) I decided to help a neighbor with shopping, household and having a social life. That happened after i bought a pet snake from her that was left behind by her son. Greetings from Germany ♥

@@joanlovelace6865 Well said!!

[@buzman7811]

You do a great job with your videos. Followed your link for the pony with Laminitus and you did a great job with the explanation and the x-rays. That is great because it provides a medical explanation of what is going on beneath that hoof wall. Keep it up and good luck with vet school!!

[@maverick_vet]

glad the link worked for you. and thanks

[@chrisunderwood2524]

Love your commentary on ringbone....my horse's farrier.bought himself a fluier imagining camera and studied on all the imagining that is available...through this technology...now he can see the hot And cold spots..in the legs down towards the hoof areas and through out the whole horse..it had helped his customers quiet a lot...

[@mitzibud6908]

Congratulations on balancing all the facets of your busy life!! Love, love, love your videos!!

[@beth8095]

I have been around horses all of my life I now have MS and can't just get up on a horse without having help Every time I have been around a group of people I lend a hand to create a great time For ALL I don't sit back and watch For something to go wrong! Thank You so much For your very helpful tips

[@rachelsnyder650]

I volunteered at a local shelter this past weekend for a fundraiser event after working at Stoney Creek Stables all day. I am from small town Muncy Pennsylvania.

[@GoaliGrlTilDeath]

Stumbling around KZbin and what do I find but a farrier from my neck of the woods! I'm also in Pullman and am a Coug Alum. It's been a while since I've been spent much time around horses but just watching this the smell of hoof comes back to me, and the feeling of the horse nibbling on your back and jeans while you try and clean their front hooves :D Good luck with the rest of the semester and onward to 4th year!

[@sandysefcik1614]

Appreciate this very much...I watch the farrier when he comes out but hate to ask too many questions...it can be tiring work when he has a have number of horses to work with. .One of our horses has foundered and your explaining how and what is done to help the problem is invaluable information. Thank you...and enjoyed hearing some "personal." 😊

[@thelos3999]

So admirable, you really care for these animals even on vacation. I'm sure the horse thanks you, even if he was fighting you a little haha Edit: I'm repairing my little cousins wooden toy truck as my act of good. I have been doing repairs and housework for my family this past year. It helps them and it helps me learn.

[@maryannrurup353]

You are not boring in any manner, thank you for all.

[@WallabyfromBillings]

I am glad to see another video. Billings Mt. Coming home the other day there was a guy standing with a small gas can at the east bound off ramp from the interstate (#452). I pulled my pick up over got his attention with the help of a semi hauling a set of tankers. This ole boy and his wife were on their way home to Idaho after her dad passed from COVID complications at 80 years old. They were broke, I told him I would fuel them up so they could get closer to home, and if they could, maybe pay it forward in the future. I don't want to enter the give away but it would be nice to see what other people are doing. Lord knows it's good to hear about people lending a hand.

[@kristibeyer2727]

You are so awesome you are not boring if we thought that we would not watch. You are very educational. Thank you.

[@Trill-fr4us]

So happy for you getting closer to being a vet! The reason I watch is because when I was younger my ex brother in law was a farrier and I always likes to watch him. So now I found your videos and enjoy them very much. You are so caring towards the horses and that is a plus because I think animals can tell when they are being treated good. Thanks for explaining things as you go. That makes it interesting to know why you are doing what you are doing. Again good luck in your schooling.
