HOW MUCH HOOF ?!!! SATISFYING! 

I love watching both. Cows are awesome But horses will always be my first love

Hahahaha me too!!!! Who knew hood tv was sooo good!!!

Hoof tv!!!! Hahaha

It's addictive

Didn’t even know what a farrier was, now I’m hooked on this. With my messed up toenails from disease I need a farrier not a manicurist.

I think I saw someone say somewhere that you don't bend your back, you bend at the hip

I think that might have been why at one point he dropped the hoof and stood back against the wall for a minute.

It doesn’t! My uncle recently retired from farrier work in his 40’s as he’s now having regular steroid injections into his back for that reason. There’s ways to mitigate the effects, but it still can’t ever be denied that it is hard on your body

Find a new farrier, you know your horse better than anyone and if they can’t listen to a simple thing like that find a new one

Just wrap them up before he arrives then.

Have a new farrier now

I’ve seen people do it without. To their own horses. So idk

Compared to the guy I watched who trims the cow's hooves you have an extremely low-tech approach. He has an $80,000 machine that holds the cows and grabs the foot and brings it up oh, you just put it between your legs. I am surprised the horse doesn't kick the chit out of you though

@@augustonthefly it’s a completely different process from cow hoof trimming.. they get horseshoes

@@augustonthefly cows are generally not as used to handling as horses and there are generally more cows to take care of instead of a few horses. Cows hooves can be trimmed without any machines, I have done it, but those cows love humans and I trusted that they would not kick me or try to get away from me while I was working on them.

1. The frog feels like cartilage, only thicker. You can bend a slice of it. It has a smooth texture when cut. It's not squishy, but it has an interesting smell (not stinky). 2. Farriers often don't use stands until they get to the front and top of the hoof (rasping the front for proper axis) --- after they've trimmed the underneath (frog, sole [on this horse, the sole is the white colored, flakey stuff he's trimming with the nippers and knife] and wall of the hoof). He did use a stand when he got to that part of the trim later in the video. P.S. Dogs love to hang around when horses get trimmed...they love to chew on the hoof and frog trimmings. Snack time!

Let's hope they don't take off and land on the roof.

Money 😂

Sure is 🥵

It’s probably a huge Horse

You know what they say about those with big feet right?

@@petert3355 They gotta wear big shoes.

*GAAAASP* Never tell a farrier his tools are small!! Lol

Me too😂

What back pain he’s been cursed with😖😖😖

The nails should be up that far otherwise you'd damage the wall. A friend of mine is a farrier, state trained (some learned from only other farriers, she (yes she)) had a years long study and has a state diploma (more reliable). They all nail that high.

I'm not a farrier, but I think it's to provide good air flow so that moisture don't get trapped. Depending on the environment the horse lives in, that may be a factor if the frog gets trimmed or not.

I've never seen a farrier NOT trimming the frog

@@Saartje05 Huh 🤔 maybe is a difference in where you live

It's to see if the shoe is fitted properly. If the hoof needs more trimming or the shoe needs to be molded more. It doesn't hurt the horse at all.

probably some kind of conditioner

They put the cows in a crush that lifts up the entire animal and ties the legs firmly so the cow cant move. This way he stands behind it upright being able to use both hands with the grinder. I dont know any horses that would agree to such treatment, they tend to be claustrophobic. Usually, a horse will need more frequent trims than they do cows, meaning there is less growth to remove, so a grinder would remove to much hoof too fast.

A shire

It depends! Generally younger horses are worse but it can get tiring to hold you foot up my horse is young to middle aged I'd say she is perfect for the farrier were as a horse older could be worse, it just depends

On average every 6 weeks. Some hoofs grow faster = more like 4 weeks. Some grow slower = more like 8 weeks.

It's to see that it is level!

That will be getting the customer to make coffee!! ;)

@@larrybrown6068 hahahahaha

A lot of people use Venice turpentine on the soles to help harden them up. Just paint it on with a brush

If your horse is lame after a farrier, get them to come back and check the nails aren't too high

My horses Don't ware shoes
