BIG STONE stuck in BULLS FOOT | *2400lbs BULL!* | The Hoof GP 

This took a lot of courage, Graeme. First to explore the house and your feelings, to allow yourself to really feel them, and finally to share them with us. Thank you for trusting us to help hold you up a bit. Big, big love to you and your family.

My Dad died when I was 17, had been ill all his life with Crohns, had 5 sons and made it to 57. He was a jeweller and was extremely well known as " the man who can " when nobody else could. He has always been and always will be my greatest hero, a trully inspiring man. And like you I often wish he was here to see the things I do, to help steer me at times, and to meet his 3 Grandchildren. When I want to be close to him, I sit at my bench and begin a new piece of jewellery, something exiting, and I can feel him looking over my shoulder. I am sure your father would be proud of his children. Thanks for the share, it reminded me of my Dad, and that is always a good thing.

From 75 year old lady: Thank you for sharing part of your life with us. It tugged at my heart in a sad and joyful way.

All I can say is thank you for sharing this with us. After my grandpa died their farm was sold out of the family and a few years later we got permission from the new owners to stop by and take a look around. When we did the changes to the main house and property actually made my heart hurt. I've not been able to go passed there again since as I prefer to have my memories of how it was in the forefront of my mind. I can't imagine how hard this would have been if it were the house I grew up in.

I’m sorry for the loss of your father Graeme. God bless your positive attitude. I bet 1000% your old man would be extremely proud.

I kinda wanted to cry when you went through your family home and then went to visit your fathers grave. I could feel the emotions you were feeling. Thank you for sharing that part of your life with us.

I don't know if you'll see this, but bless your heart for sharing such deep & difficult memories. It's OK to cry if you need to sometime. Stay strong and blessings to you and your family. ❤❤

Sometimes 'going back' can be sad. Especially when things aren't how they used to be. It can also give you prospective on where you are now. Never thought I would be watching a hoof-trimming video. Thanks :-)

And he would be so, so proud of what you have acheived. His legacy lives on in all of you. The past is what it is. Stand tall, keep moving forward. He's with you all the way ❤️

Omg The bull with the stone in his foot when he got out and danced around it was made me so happy

I just lost my Dad in March and I miss him terribly but my heart goes out to you for losing your father at such a young age. That must have been and is so hard for you and your family. My sincerest sympathy's and kindest thoughts and prayers are for your entire family. I find as the older we get we realize and feel the loss more. God bless you all.

Great presentation, as always. You've given us a perfect example of going home, both physically and emotionally. Do, please, continue posting your videos. Cheers, Dick from Vancouver.

A content contributor that I truly feel deserves the subs and attention. You sir, are not only charming, but someone to look up to because of (among other things) your great work ethic.

That bull with the stone in his hoof was dancing a jig when he got out like “heeeeeeey ladiiiiiies I’m baaaaaaaaack!! Whooooooohoooooo I’m feeling GOOOOOOODD!!!!” 😂 Good job!

Thank you for the courage to share those memories. Lost my father when I was 19, hardest thing for a child to lose a parent at such a young age. But those lessons taught us to become the people we are today. He is with you always, and his memory will live on in your boys.

the hoof gp: "it's pretty obvious" me: "you eat the cow before she develops hoof problem" the hoof gp: "beef cows are more fleshy" me:

Grandad died at 57, dad at 56 and I’m 53. Let’s hope it’s only the men who die young. So nice to see where you’ve been in life. Thank you for sharing that with us.

"SHUT THE DOOR" is the theme song of fathers everywhere. Hello from Southern Illinois, USA!! Love your videos but this one is special ❤️💞.

Thanks for sharing your childhood home with us! I lost my dad at 18 from a heart attack, and yes would have liked to have talked to him as an adult just like you. It was hard to lock up our own family home after 65 years when Mom died. I could hear us 5 kids playing in my mind seeing the empty rooms and remember things that happened. Your dad would be proud of you Graeme!

The ending was very special. I lost my dad in ‘97 when I was 10 so I can relate. I’m glad you still have great memories

I was right with you there, Graeme. My childhood home has gone the other way - people bought it, cut down my willow tree, and extended it over the garage and out to the side - so it's in good nick but it's not really where I grew up any more. Like they say, you can never go home again; but you can make a new one and from what I've seen you and Mrs. Hoof GP have made a fine job of doing that.

At 2:15 Man: "... that is the purpose they're raised for, for the meat industry..." The cow behind him: *turns head in concern*

Got very emotional during the old home tour. I just imagined how I would feel seeing the home I grew up in in that state and it gave me a deep sadness.

The bull with the stone came out of the crush like " Yeah come on then I'm the man" gave me a laugh. He was well happy

me: watches nothing about cows youtube: recommends this me: watches cow stuff now.

Craig’s modeling his hair 🤣🤣🤣

I rewatch this video every few months. It’s nice to reminisce and remember places, times, and people from our past. It’s like keeping it all those memories alive. Thank you for sharing your past with us.

It's such a gorgeous place. Heavenly. I like that you went to visit your Dad and shared it with us!!!❤️🙏🏽

Your father would've been very proud of you hun ❤️ ty for sharing this with us 😘💋

Graeme, my dad died when he was 54. The year I turned 54, I always had in the back of my mind that I might die that year. I am now 71, so not yet.

This is my favorite episode. I love how you shared your life and father with us. Thank you 🙏🏻

Wow! My heart goes out to you! I know that had to be difficult to go back to your old home & visit your fathers grave. I have no doubt that your dad is so proud of you for the awesome man & father you have become! Sending hugs!

Craig's hair swooshing: 11/10

10:44 thats the bull with stone stuck

Thank you so much for sharing some of your family history with us. That took a bit of courage to explore your emotions and then put it out there for all of us to see. I don't care if the vid I watch is from yesterday or 2 years ago, I gain more respect for you every time. Peace , love and joy from my family to yours.

Thank you for sharing a small part of your childhood and family story. I’m sure your Dad is very proud of you and your siblings. I know all the cows and bulls are very grateful for all your expertise. Keep doing what you are doing. I absolutely love “the crush” by the way……it’s fab! 😀

My family built a second home 2.5 miles from our town home. It was on 22 acres of wood and fields and for fifteen glorious years we lived there from early Spring to late late Fall. Then we all went off to live our lives, the building was flooded, my parents died and the Camp is a ruin now, used for storage. I know how you feel. Like you, my memories are my own, and now that I'm old I can tell you this: The best and biggest thing you can do in your life is to fill your children with happy memories of their own to last a lifetime. You've done well so far; I suspect your parents are proud of you.

Those bulls are gorgeous. And i understand the heartache of going "home" and finding it destroyed

I love your videos! Thank you for showing us through your old house and giving us a snapshot of your earlier life. I appreciate you talking about your Dad too. I'm raising my 2 boys (10 & 12) without their dad who passed away 6 years ago, and ask the same questions about what he would say or do. You give me hope that my boys can become well rounded men and thrive. Thank you so much

When the big white bull got in I just about cried and kept yelling, “Kiss him kiss him kiss him” he looks so sweet 😭 makes me miss living on my family’s dairy farm

My husband died when he was 28, our daughter really feels it whenever milestones are reached, her wedding, birth of her daughter. Its wanting to feel rooted. You have a beautiful place for reflection

Don’t lie u didn’t search for this but still clicked

That was an absolutely beautiful model like shot of Craig! Wonderful cinematography. That’s incredibly brave to speak about your dad and painful memories. Memory lane is sometimes quite rocky.

When you bellowed out "Shut the door" while walking through the old house, my dog's all set up and looked directly at my front door. It was hilarious. Keep up the great work! I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos and learning new techniques. I'm in Texas so it's very dry here and almost all of the cattle here walk through the desert Oran the soil that's mixed with Clay, yes we actually have vegetation that grows I'm that type of soil LOL but the fields are very dry and they have some give to them. We've never had to shoo our cows, only our horses. So this has been a complete learning experience. Also what type of coffee is it that you all drink over there? I should send you some from here

I just wanna give him a hug. Seeing the emotion of him visiting his family home in the state it’s in. Then talking about his Dad. Absolutely heart wrenching. Makes you think about things in a different perspective. And this is why I watch every video he posts. ❤️

It's hard to talk about emotional things in general but stand before the camera like you do is something completley different. This is why you got a lot of subscribers and get more all the time. There's nothing fake about you Graeme and that's why I love this channel. Greetings from Sweden.

Thank you for sharing this bit of life with us, random strangers online. Glad you get to enjoy and remember all these things.

When you've lost a parent, memories from your past always stir up mixed emotions. Your dad would be proud - no doubt. Much in common with this one. (Yoda)

Oddly enough when you removed that stone it was very satisfying, I had an ingrown nail and when it was removed it felt SO GOOD. I'd imagine that is how the bull felt afterwards.

Oh bless you, this must have been so moving for you. I really felt for you, you’re such a lovely guy.

I grew up on a farm & fell in love with you working on cows. This was sad, but thankful that you have the place to reminisce. 💕

That was a real heartfelt video about you and your family's history I love seeing your childhood home stay safe as always ... With love from America

I love going through old houses like your old one. I love to see how people lived then and imagine. I love going through graveyards and looking for the oldest and newest. I look at all the headstones. It is peaceful to me. Thanks for taking us along on your memory lane.

Thank you for allowing us into your childhood home! The memories we make with loved ones are the things that make us who we are.

Oh, all the feels 😭 I’m so sorry for your loss. You are amazing at what you do and I am thoroughly enjoying your videos. Thank you for always being so amazing to the livestock you work with. Wishing you all the best.

Thank you for sharing the good and not so good parts of your life with us! I am lucky to have my dad still with me but that time is getting short with him. Big hug to you!

From humble beginnings, greatness arises.

Early teen years are hard enough. Loss of a parent is much worse. You are smart to focus on your happy memories. You grew up in a lovely location. Peaceful place of rest for your dad. Thank you for sharing.

Loved your family history in this video. Thank you for sharing, I can only imagine how truly emotional it was for you.

Always nice to know your history. Lovely tradition with the family names and I am certain your dad is proud of you all. Keep the videos coming.

That was an emotional episode; I'm off to bubble 😭 I'm sure your Dad would be super proud of you.

Thank you Graeme , this was such a special ending to the video, i imagine it was a little hard to do all the filming with so many memories floating around your head, but it was beautiful. I hope you and the family are doing very well.

Great video. I see lots of those tumbled down houses in my travels, and I always like to think that the people that lived there were happy. I'm certain your dad would be proud of you and your family. Best wishes from Oklahoma USA.

This really resonates a lot with me, I lost my dad as well when I was 13, so I can empathize a lot thinking about how my dad would feel now, 7 years later, with me doing what I'm doing and almost done with college, and all the milestones in my life that he'll miss. It feels good to have people from similar situations and be able to connect with them, thanks for this

I’ll bet if that bull could talk after you took that stone out, I’ll bet he would say “thank you kind sir”

Me: *never watches a single cow video* RU-vid: *recommends cow video* Me: *clicks on cow video* Cow Video: *is the most wholesome thing created by the most caring person on the planet* Me: wut

Thank you for being real and sharing your family story. I lost my mother when I was 8 years old. I can’t stop watching your videos. Keep being fantastic.

Thanks for letting me spend an afternoon with you sir. Visiting the old homestead is always a bit sad but your visit was sadder than mine. I felt your pain. Thanks for showing me your work with the cattle.

I lost my father when he was 45. The first time I went to his grave, I cried a horrid sob I've never matched even to this day. The "what if's" were flooding my mind and the cavernous hole he left behind in my life I've yet to find anything with which to fill it. I cried for you today Graeme, You are an endearing soul. Know full well that your father is so so very proud of you, and he feels your love. Of that I've absolutely no doubt. Thank you so much for sharing.

I'm so sorry it was hard for you to go back to your family home, I could see the sadness in your expression and hear it in your voice. But I'd like to thank you for letting us into your life a bit more. Bless you and your family..💗

Graeme, I’m sitting here with tears streaming out of my eyes. You are a real jewel. Sharing something so personal with us has touched my heart. You have such a honest and hopeful manner about you. Thank you so much for sharing a piece of that with the world. 💜

I'm sorry for your loss Graeme. I almost lost my mother in 2020, but we were very fortunate that she survived her ordeal and is now doing better. Thank you for sharing such an amazing and heartfelt video.

We had to let a bull go because of stones in his hoof. The guilt just thinking about it sickens me. Wish we had done something sooner. You're a good man Graham, keep up the good work.

binge watching this wonderful channel of hoofery, a thought occurs; "wonder if this guy has more than nail shavings up his sleeves?" not disappointed.

Great videos Graham.. Who would have thought that hoof trimming and hoof care would be so interesting.. You seem like a down to earth bloke...look forward to more videos in the near future..

Thank you for taking us into your past 💜 It was lovely to share it with you 😊 As with your hoof Dr. side... fab as always 👌 The white bull though!! What a unit he is!!! I wonder what's the max weight your machine can cope with? 🤔

"He's afraid of me.... Probably." 😂😂

As a father of a son myself, I can tell you without a doubt that he would be very proud of you. You seem to be a fine lad and have done well for yourself!

Lovely video, thank you for taking us on a tour down memory lane with you. Your father would be proud of you and your brothers and sisters.

Thanks for sharing these memories with us. 💕💕💕it hurts my heart for you but so happy for what you have made for your family. Glad you had a step father to teach you what you now know.

You were feeling nostalgic. I get that way when I go to my grandparents farm. Grandparents and parents are gone. Childhood and adult memories. Parents lived on the farm for years. I'll be going there in a couple of weeks. I love the place, but makes me sad. Best regards from Texas, USA.

My Hubs lost his dad when he was 18. He always wondered what his dad would have thought of how he lived his life. His dad was 54. I enjoyed seeing a glimpse of your past. Thanks for sharing.

I am a new subscriber. Thanks for sharing some of your childhood memories, I was 13 when my Dad passed. You sculpt on living things and make them beautiful and functional! Happy New Year from the States!

The prancing Bull was priceless. Going home was very touching. Thank you.

Aww darlin. Thanks for sharing your memories with us. Seeing you sad in the old home was like the lame bull...every creature has weak moments. God bless you from Nova Scotia xo

Seeing your old house was really great and hearing all your memories made us smile.. Please dont be sad your father would be and is so very proud of you. We sure are super proud of you and all you accompish. Your channel and videos , your memories and family bring such joy to our lives and i just want to thank you for including us in your life and sharing your memories and childhood home with us as well. Your father is watching over you with a big smile i bet. God bless you and your family, and all of you stay safe, healthy and happy. Hi to your kiddos and wife

Thank you for being the great man you are today and helping so many cows. Also, sharing so much with us of your past and your Dad. I’m for sure that your Dad would be so proud of you

Thank you Graeme. So touching to see your old family home. What a beautiful day❤️👍🏼

"How can a house become this?" That hit much harder and closer to home than I expected

That big boy is gorgeous . I love cows . I can’t imagine not having my Dad around love and prayers to you . That must have been really hard for you seeing your old house and visiting your Dad .

Thank you for sharing a part of your life outside of your career(which is equally entertaining). I absolutely love the location where you are! I can remember a time when I was little and hearing nothing but nature! Just having that and a beautiful day as in this video. I yearn for days like that during those younger days. I really appreciate your channel and what you do!

We lost my father-in-law almost a year ago. My husband is really missing him. Seeing you remember your dad helps me somehow.

I needed this Dr. Cowman. 😁 so much going on in the states, South Carolina is no exception. I'm just sad sir, and this surely will help. Justice for George. Peaceful, not evil.

It was moving to see you talking about your old home and your happy memories with your family..You did seem you where near tears, Your past has made you the man you are today and I am sure your family is proud of you especially your father..

I feel the same way when I go back home in Puerto Rico. Go to the unhabitable house 🏠and recall all the past in flashes. Its like you want them all here to spread all that you have among them, and thanks them for the way they raised us. But honestly they already knew, that's why they were so tough on us..lol..🥰❤🙏

Your Dad sounds like he was a good man. Thank you for sharing your former home & Dad's memory with us.

Craig’s baywatch hair moment 😂😂 on a serious note, is that just a lil skin bump behind your ear?

Your Dad knows Graeme and I'm sure he's very proud of the man you've become today. My dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer 6 weeks ago and given 2-6 weeks to live...he was mowing his lawn today...family strong!

Thank you for sharing some of the insight of your personal life. It shows how compassionate and caring and how proud of where you came from to where you are now.

Thank you for sharing your journey through your family home, your thoughts and feelings.
