Nate, you are my favorite because no one is more gentle than you are. Additionally, you don't over sensationalize what's going on with the cows. I really appreciate it.
lol sorry but I don't think you want to be one of these cows. Of course he treats them well. And sure, I think these cows are in a good area but also these cows will be killed after 5 years. A cow could life about 20 years. Its like killing every human after 22 years ;) But yeah, if you like to have a short life you are welcome :D
Typical UK housewife here…no idea how or why I’ve been hooked on these hoof videos for the last four years. But Nate is defo my favourite…so gentle and so thorough 🐮❤
I was with my friend at his diabetic podiatry appointment the other week and we ended up laughing because we all watch nate! There's just something so satisfying about watching him work!
I have a lot of appreciation for the bits where our view was obscured by your hand. Genuinely. Because I know when you film, you make it to where we can see what’s going on. In this case, the animal needed extra comfort and care and your concern was for them and not the “clear” shot for us. ❤️
I really hope you're mentoring others to trim this gently and compassionately. Not that I wish you to be overburdened or overwhelmed, but you have such a gentle and deliberate touch, you definitely stand out above all other trimmers I've seen, and I think the world could benefit from your methods and knowledge and philosophy being passed down and shared around. You truly do incredible work.
You are ever so gentle and precise, Nate!☺️ And that is why you are my favourite hoof trimmer on RU-vid. The knife work, the close ups and showing us the newborn calf are outstanding….May God Bless you and all your bovine patients.🙏🏼🍀👋🏼🇨🇦
I didn't start with your channel, but I enjoy watching you work so carefully in helping these animals that this is the only hoof channel I watch! And thanks for the baby pics!
I've watched a few popular hoof trimmers.....they're all qualified and caring, but I really love your channel because it is so calming, direct, and focused on the work. Others seem to hack away at the hoof and while I'm sure they're very professional, I just really appreciate your knife work. I've worked in veterinary settings and came to know different vets this way in the surgical room: everyone very qualified, but some just had that special touch. Nate, you have that special touch. I really love watching you work. You are gentle, precise, unrushed, and careful. Thanks for sharing your work and talents!
Thank you for being so gentle with that cow's sore hoove! Your compassion and your gentleness is the reason I subscribed to your videos. I truly enjoy watching you trim and treat cows with their issues. Thank you for the extra footage of the momma and her baby! 🐄❤🐄❤️
Great video Nate. I just respect how careful you are and empathetic with their pain. Lots of farmers seem to act like pain isnt very important. And the new baby was such a sweet addition to the video👍👍👍❤️
Wonderful to see the new calf there. And also wonderful to see you take such care about how you navigate your way around those painful feet. I really appreciate the care you take with helping those animals. Makes your channel so much better to watch.
Being a city girl and a retired nurse, i love all the TLC you give to the cows in your care. I never knew about hoof triming, but I make it a point to catch your videos‐-so informative and enjoyable. Thank you for a truly wonderful program.🐄
I live these videos. Every time I watch you being extremely gentle with your knife I agave to wonder, just how strong is your grip? The control you show while cutting away some incredibly tough material is impressive! I’m glad these ladies have such a talented and caring hood trimmer
Literally every time I watch one of your videos and see the hurt hoofs you’re helping the only sound in my head is Jim Carrey screaming “OWIE!” You’re so gentle with them and I feel it shows how much you truly care for the animals you’re treating. Keep it up!
Thank you for releasing this video...for someone like me who has been a long time viewer and is currenyly too poor to afford a membership, being able to see this has been like. Really nice? It reminds a lot of the content i first found that made me come to love your channel and the work you do. The slower pace, the more detailed look...i really wish the algorithm jusy let you make stuff like you used to like this, all the time. Anyway, thank you also for the fresh calf shot. Its so cute how the cows are just welcoming it so enthusiastically
Thank you for caring so much about the comfort of the cows you care for and taking that extra time to be careful and as gentle as possible. It warms my heart and I really feel with you they're in such good hands.
Thanks for the work that you do for these wonderful animals! I’m happy that you always kept the natural sounds of everything that surrounds you whilst you work, no music overlapping. You are ever so gentle with your knife work too. A massive thank you! 💗
I echo other people here, and in comments for your other videos, who point out how humane you are with these animals - that is absolutely key, as far as I am concerned. In this case, especially, I just felt for her as the lesion seemed especially bad. Thank you for all you do.
Gee, I was hurting just to see what her Hoof was going through..😱 But as always, you were so gentle, and careful with her.. Your work is absolutely beautiful!!! ❤
Nate, another blessing bestowed upon one of God's creatures. Most excellent! And always educational. And you threw in a new born. Woot! Love the channel.
Nate she stops and turns to thank you in appreciation......testimony to her relief and your good kind considerate and gentle work. I got so involved in this i let out and audible aaaaahhhhhh as the salicillic acid went on as it may sing but once that passes the relief will be immense. The birth and rejoicing was wonderful to hear and see, i though the girls were telling the loud machine to be quiet.....how wonderful it was to see and hear the welcome to the calf and joy to the mother. 🐮🐮🐮🐮🐮🌬️🏆🥇🏅💕💞💖💝🕊️🎑😇
I love it! So that's what it sounds like when cows lie about how cute a newborn is! That heel, though---I feel such sympathy for the cow. I've had some ugly, bloody blisters in my time, always from shoes that didn't fit right and long days when I couldn't take them off. Poor girl. She will feel better in no time now that the fluid has been released and she has been wrapped. Thanks, Nate!
I could tell she was moving her foot as much as she could. Sometimes when we treat animals for a problem whether pets or livestock we have to work through the hurty part to fix the problem.
Nate, you are so amazing at your job. It's one thing to be great at your job when it brings financial rewards and respect from your friends and family, it's another completely when being great at your job literally heals and brings so much relief from pain and suffering. Keep doing what you're doing and everyone wins! That must be a wonderful feeling! Great job Brother!
Hey Nate, first as always you do amazing work and it’s satisfying to see the cows walk away happy! Secondly I got a question for you regarding the heel bulb area you were working on in this video. At what point does it stop being hoof and start to become hide (skin? Idk the terms) and have you ever made the mistake of cutting too far and into the hide? I also notice that the heel bulb section is always a lot less firm than the rest of the hoof, even though to my untrained eye it seems to be the same tissue as the outer wall horn? And again, top quality work! From the treatment to the video!
I wonder how many people realize that in order to move slowly and careful like nate does the guy is probably HUGE, I'm pretty sure it takes a lot of strength to be so precise
When I was a kid we had around twenty head of cattle 50/50 mothers and steers and when the mothers went to calf they would somehow disappear within the eighty acres or so of pasture and some wooded area. I could look for them all day and find nothing until a few days would pass, and they'd come out of hiding with their new calfs and show them off to the herd. Amazing that they could do that again and again.
The way you put the powder on is more effective than i have seen direct from the container. I understand every Hoof guy must have their own opinions and observations.
Nate, thanks you for your gentleness with the cows. You don’t whale away at their hooves, you don’t make off- color jokes, and you don’t make sarcastic comments towards others. You are a gentleman with both man and beast!
This was hard for me to watch only because it made me want to cry seeing and hearing the cow moo in pain at the beginning. But I do know you helped her so that her hoof heals and she is able to get to feeling comfortable again. I am truly grateful you were gentle with her and helped her out as you are a professional. The world needs more compassionate people like you to show care for animals that need it.
Thank you for your extended explanation. I did notice as you were cleaning, there was a small area on the top right that you touched with your hands and it was very thin and soft. Why was that left as you usually trim soft sole. I love cows but not as knowledgeable as you. Thanks for the baby calf so sweet.❣️🦋❣️🐾🥰
I love how gentle and careful you are with the girls. ☺🐮 We can see how much you take care to make them as comfortable as possible. There are other hoof-trimmer RU-vidrs who just seem to quickly hack away at the hooves and don't want to go slowly and take their time on delicate cases like this. You are my favorite hoof trimmer to watch!
I've been wondering how much harder to cut the more flexible horn on the back of the heel is? How do you balance force used and delicacy? It must have taken so much practice!
This looks like a really tough and delicate one to do. At 04:39 you can see how careful Nate is when he doesn't just continue pushing with the blade cause it could have made contact with the live tissue, he re-adjusted the angle and the grip for avoiding damaging the corium. Great job. I am so glad to see this channel growing too.
