Never stop showing the cows walking away at the end. It's great to see them, after expecting to still be in pain when they walk, quickly realise "Hey, that guy with the crazy contraption has fixed my hoof"😊
I didn’t know I would become so invested in this channel after one video, but now I watch every single video with great concentration. I love how you work with these cows, you’re so gentle and caring. Good job!
I love watching hoof trimming. The hoof GP from Scotland Midwestern Hoof trimmer And another from Ireland . So glad these men take great care of the livestock.
I watch a couple other hoof guys on RU-vid but I think you're the best. You're always so gentle, very thorough with cleaning the lesions and making sure all the loose horn is gone, while still being extremely careful to avoid live tissue. Yet still quick and efficient! You're the best there is.
Why? Why am I addicted to these videos? I'm not a farmer. I've never been close to a cow, or a farm for that matter. I'm a pasty fat nerd who spends 99% of his time indoors. This could not be LESS relevant to me. And yet, these videos just... fascinate me. I suppose it's partly the knowledge that when an animal is in so much pain like the cows here, someone is there to provide comfort and healing. Keep up the good work, Nate the Hoof Guy! You got a watcher!
That puncture looks alot like a barb from barbwire. She felt so much relief once you released all that pressure. Its very clear by the way you treat their hoofs that have alot of consideration and compassion for the herd. You sir are a hero to these hefers.😂
I really appreciate how Nate is probably one of the most considerate men I have ever encountered in my entire life. Every single step of the way I can tell how much care and love that he puts in and on top of that he still finds time to be considerate of how his hand covers the camera. I have been watching religiously for a few months now and I just have to say that I love all of his videos.
I like that in addition to caring about doing a good job of caring for the cow's hoof, you also care about making a decent video. Your videos are my favorite, I love them! Thanks for the great content!
it's crazy to see the difference in her walk literally immediately as she's walking away! all that infection taken care of and no weight on it probably felt amazing for her!!!!
I arrived to your channel like... a couple of days ago and now I can't stop watching your videos, I really find your job very interesting and can imagine the relief you bring to those girls when you treat their hoofs. It's a pleasant thing to see, and how careful you are with them too
I have watched several other videos doing the same job as you and I have to tell you; that I truly admire your gentleness with the animals! Anyone watching your videos can definitely see that you are not just there for the money. Thank you for sharing your videos, we look forward to seeing more of them.
Your one of the best hoof trimmers iv'e come across Nate Its very occasionally that you draw blood and your commentary is so knowledgeable. I don't know why some company hasn't picked you up to teach at their cow trimming conferences . I literally cant wait until your next video comes out and only wish they were more often , but I suppose it takes time you don't have
I don’t know how I found your channel but when I watch I’m constantly “talking” to your cows telling them they will be okay while your working. Thank you for the care you give these beauties.
That sure looks like one inflamed, sore foot. I''ll bet just getting the small stones and bits of detached horn off of the exposed coriam and the pockets of inflammation gives some relief right away, apart from the other things you do. Thanks for showing this one, Nate. Between that pup and the Jersey who likes giving 'nose kisses' it's clear that some of the animals show you some love, LOL. Many thanks for this post - and all your other interesting work. Cheers.
I just subscribed to your channel, because you have the clearest explanations of what is going on with the hooves you show us. I love it that you are able to help these cows have a better life. I grew up on a dairy farm, so I have a soft spot for cows. 🐄😊
Holy moly. Seems so high up in the heel. And so massive. Poor cow. So happy she has you as her gentle knowledgeable caregiver to heel her heel better. Happy cow happy farmer!
I love watching your channel instead of other hoof ones because you get straight to the point. The other channels have long intros or just take so long to start trimming its a bit much lol
Felt so bad the whole time this girl was being worked on. Her little flinches hurt my heart. Glad to know she's not in pain anymore and on the way to healing :)
That depends on how fast a cows horn grows and how fast the meds work to heal the lesion. I know, for a horse, farriers come out anywhere from 5 to 8 weeks. They usually need that amount of time for the hoof to start healing.
for some reason these videos always put me in such a great mood lol. thank you so much for making these, makes me forget about whats happening. i wish i could be cared for like these cows~ lol...always so gentle
I didn’t think i’d be binge watching hoof videos at 10pm on Sunday night… but here I am. You genuinely seem to have a heart and care for these animals and I love it. Your content is both informative, borderline asmr and absolutely fascinating. Thank you for posting these, and thank you for taking such good care of the animals.
The real MVP in nates kit is that plastic squirty bottle. Every single one of them I’ve ever used has disintegrated in my hands after a couple of pumps 😂
This was a good one! Glad you got that gal all taken care of. Definitely appreciate all the ways you work with and around the camera to give us the best view possible. Thank you! ❤️🐮 And that pup was adorable! ❤️🐶
I'm 36 never stepped on a dairy or cattle farm and I can't get enough of this. Makes me wish I would have found a trade rather than settle for office work.
Loved the doggo, don't forget to give your cows some head scratchin' too! That looks pretty rough even covered in mud, wow. Gonna be knife time, that's a pretty tough wall. Don't sweat the video, take care of the cow. Thank You, Nate.
I never get over, that stuff like this actually heals up with proper treatment. I mean it's a massive infection at hear foot and she is walking directly back into feaces, as cows tend to do. Good job, keep up good work.
The hoof grinder sounds like a dentist's drill so it makes my teeth hurt lol, but it's worth it, because watching you fix up and take good care of the cows fills me with joy
I grew up in the city. I don't know anything about cattle. I'm not even sure why this type of video was recommended to me by the algorithms but I've watched at least a dozen now and I'm fascinated by them.
Omg it’s terrible.. the other side that’s going to get the block looks a bit dodgy too. This poor poor cow. How long did this take to get to this stage Nate? I love how gentle you are. Thank you for all that you do for these cows. 👏🙏
If I recall correctly, these can progress really quickly- even a matter of days can result in a large section of dermatitis and loose horn? Cows are prey animals so they work hard hide injuries as a survival mechanism. That’s why the regular trimming is so important. Maybe someone can correct me, though!
It's hard to tell how long the cow has had a particular injury or infection since cows are considered 'prey' animals, they will hide their pain and weaknesses so they don't appear like an easy meal for a predator.
The animals love you! They know the character of a person! You are also very gentle. I have a hard time watching some other, a little rough! Another satisfied lady💕
Seeing how much you care for these ladies is really wonderful. I grew up in the country and grew away from it after some bad experiences with family, and watching your videos makes me remember the wonderful parts. Thank you for your compassion for these beautiful ladies.
Do I work on a farm? No. Do I work with cattle at all? Also no. In fact I'm not an outdoors type of person but I find this fascinating and relaxing to watch a guy do his job and help the cows walk better and get their problems of the feet taken care of. Good man with a good job seems like.
I know I have said it before but I love how precise and careful you treat these little ladies. Wish you lived close to me so I could maybe get you to sharpen my kitchen knives 🤗
You are so good and kind with the poor little hurt cow to make her foot feel better. And you are so careful to not hurt her foot more. Good job. You are rhe best foot trimmer
Thanks so very much for the education, Nate. Until I accidentally came across your channel, it never occurred to me that cattle have such hoof problems. This life-long city boy is learning a lot from you. And thanks for the gentle & caring way you treat our animal friends. I'm always fascinated by how still and patiently they stand & wait for you during treatment. I believe they know that you're the "relief man." Your high degree of expertise, professionalism and succinct narratives are very impressive. Keep up your good works!
Here in south Texas, conditions like these are very rarely seen although a cow with a sore hoof is not utterly unusual. However, such conditions are most often treated with a general antibiotic applied in an intramuscular approach. This sort of treatment which you illustrate is much more often seen applied to horses. Thank you for this great learning opportunity. Well done.
Hi Nate, great video! I have a question about the knife you use: how long does a hoof knife typically last? How do you know when you need to switch to a new one?
Hi Nate! I'm obsessed with your videos 😳 lol. I was wondering if we could get updated videos on some of the nasty ones so we can see the healing process. I understand this may not be possible but I figured I would ask. Hope you're having a wonderful day!
I have no idea why RU-vid pointed me to your videos. I don't watch farming vids, veterinary vids, or even pimple popping vids. Still, your videos have taught me something, and I'm glad you're bringing relief to all these cows.
It's so obvious that you trim those loose horns so carefully and professionally, I just wish that all hooves guys like you do the same work with fair consideration about the cows feelings of pains and discomfort.
