This big beautiful bull is having a rough week. It looks like a hematoma had reverted to an abscess and had burst on its own… aaaand… he has suffered from Infectious Bovine Balano Posthitis… well, hopefully we can help him a bit!
I consider myself an outdoorsman and have never shied away from swinging an axe or using a post hole digger, BUT I think I'd have to go with rubber gloves for the "willy wash".
A friend's Brahma bull stepped on his own willy, and the damage was massive. Long story short...the vet did what he had to do, and in time the old bull did heal. Old Silver Boy lived out the rest of his life as usual, and remained my friend's favorite bull. He was a sweetheart of a bull.
This is why I don’t try to haggle payment with veterinarians. They do the things that no one wants to do, and yet they do it out of love for the animals that can’t help themselves. My hats off to ya sir.
You can tell the Australian tone, cadence, and pronunciation creeps in when he talks sometimes. That is just natural when you are around another dialect or language for a period of time. It's an Aussie Southerner mix haha! This guy really knows his job and is great with the animals. Top notch. Kudos to him!.
I'm English in Perth Australia and he sounds so American to me but I think I hear slight changes. I cannot understand some Aussies, Americans, Scottish or even English but language is fascinating to me. As long as we maintain integrity and love for each others' differences life is fabulous (tell that to Putin).
Friend: “Amanda what did you do on Thanksgiving?” Amanda (me): “Um.... I watched a bull be thankful for what he was given.” Friend: “What was he given?" Me: “A hard time, with a happy ending." Poor fella! I hope he's all good now!
(Goes back to the herd) Bull: Hey guys I'm back! Other bull: Where have you been? Bull: You wouldn't believe it if I told you, but let's just say in 5 minutes I was stabbed, jacked, and patted on the back
Man it's really impressive how much knowledge is required to raise and care for farm animals. I think Farmers are the best people on the planet. Nobody works harder, longer and more skilled than a farmer
That is so true. I worked on a farm for four years and gained tons of respect for farmers. Every nation needs to appreciate their farmers. They are the backbone of society.
Omg that looks so painful. Poor bull. It must hurt to pee. Anyone who's had a urinary tract infection has a fair idea. It would be great to see what he looks like in the next week. Get well soon poor bull🙏🏻🐮
I love your videos. you are the best and friendlys vet I ever saw. You do it great, very nice and kind with the animals, you are very profesional and we see you do this often. thank you for helping this poor bull, now he is ok
That bull will be calling you later. To heck with them stuck up heifers, he's going to the vet's now. Did you at least give him a cigarette after you finished with his willie?
Enoch says "Hallow willy" and all I can think of is a "Halloweenie" 😂😂. All jokes aside... As a cattle farmer I love this channel and am always learning new things. Thanks for all that you do Enoch and crew!
I must say, a bit of a let down on that abscess, I wanted that yogurty goodness. At least we got a nice willy washing action! Thanks for sharing Enoch!
Poor bull! Thank you, so much, for taking care of this sweet boy! Cattle may be enormous, but sometimes they do need taking care of as if they are babies... 💚
@@blazecorp The way that Enoch poked it from the side, and jerked back, he was obviously expecting him to kick, and the nerves are in the skin, which was still intact.
@@RealJohnWayne Im not sure how much you know about cattle but the nerves they have are not like humans. There skin is extremely thick and as such they dont have nerve coverage like us. Yes they feel touch but sensation is different.
Enoch has a great attitude. I won’t be surprised when this guys on tv and then famous. He’s helped tons of young vets make their way to financial freedom.
That abcess was bad enough, but having a bad Willy is really bad. He's going to have to give it a rest, and get healed up, before he gets back to business
@@euniceacreman5307 Fair point. I had an uncle who raised cattle, and you can get some nasty infections doing this stuff if you have a break in your skin, but gloves aren't very practical to most of these folks.
Ugh. We had a Belgian Draft horse that had penial cancer. It was like raw hamburger and the vet had to reach up the sheath and drag crystals out (fluids harden into sharp painful crystals ). That big sweet boy waited patiently thru the whole process, didn’t move or stomp. Boomer was a sweet horse and we had to put him down as there was no cure. RIP Boomer !
@@chikkenbonz, A "peckerectomy" would most likely be difficult to do. The valve at the tip of the penis would end up being removed, resulting in constant dribbling, which would attract flies & infections.
@@Cricket2731 Ahh ok I see. Damn that sounds excruciating! Yeah, prolly for the best. Unnecessary suffering is never any good. OP - So sorry for your loss. RIP Boomer 😢 💔🙏
Dr. Enoch, you're so interesting to watch and hilarious at the same time. I really enjoy your videos. A person really has to be cut out for this line of work. I'd throw up just smelling the animal let alone abscesses, etc. Great job!
The commentary is priceless! I look forward to these videos, and thank you for doing the 9 years, so I didn't have to! (Although, I've cleaned enough horse willies to last me the rest of my life. It's never a joy. ) 😆
I've cleaned one horse willy in my lifetime and that was enough. Never in all my life did I ever imagine that would be in my life plan but when you have a daughter that rides and you volunteer at the barn to cut expenses....you find yourself cleaning a willy
@@dawnloveless1165 lol yup, mine was into show riding! We did the full lease thing for a few years, then I rescued two Buddy sour horses who were up there in age, plus she trained horses for riding rights. All of whom were geldings. Let's just say we were never short of sheaths to clean! 😆
After eight weeks of Air Force airframe training and six weeks of electronics training, I was sent to England and arrived right in the middle of warfare training with twelve hour shift combat aircraft sortie turn-and-burn exercises. It was stressful and exhausting. One of the other new guys looked shook and said, “I just want to go home and work on the farm.” I thought, I just left that. I’m gonna make this work. I went on to retrain into computer maintenance and computer programming to get off the flight line that was scorching in the summer and freezing in the winter. The programming course was six months of literally learning a new language. Through all that, I knew I didn’t want to work farm life; it’s harder and I respect the people who can do it. But it takes a better man than me to do these difficult tasks, and without people like this our nation wouldn’t be the powerhouse that keeps the economy going and the nation fed. Respect.
I’m sure there are unlimited willy jokes out there but I am thankful there are men like this doctor who is willing to help animals under any circumstance. It takes a real man to do what this doctor just did.
I love Enoch’s videos. He does so many things that most of us out in RU-vid land wouldn’t want to do (I.e. Willy Washes). But he always does them with care and for the hood of the animals. 💗
Awww that poor big baby 😭 he had to be in horrific pain! I'm so glad he's better now. Thank goodness for people like you who care for these amazing creatures ❤️
I was super impressed with how you cleaned up the willie, AND got it tucked back into it's pack. That's some good vet'n there. And I guess that's what 9 years of vet school will get you, and why they pay you the big bucks!
Of all the cow abscesses video, yours is the only one I like because you will poke your fingers there and pull out dead chunks which is not only satisfying for viewers but I think promotes better outcome for the cows overall. I wish others will follow your good practice. More videos please!
Good practice.. He didn’t even wear gloves or have any kind of sterile field/scalpel/sterile water to flush wound, He did not clean area of Abscess w/ any antiseptic before drainage plus it looked like a pocket knife. OMGOSH would never want him to touch my animals😢
@@annieb823 I think cows are resilient enough that they can handle a pocket knife, and generally their immune systems can handle much more than we do. In a world where we have unlimited time to individually care for each bull, maybe it’d be feasible... although most bulls aren’t comfortable with human contact and would find the process uncomfortable enough that the benefits of deep cleaning don’t outweigh the drawbacks for the cow’s mental health, they can’t understand daily abscess cleaning is good for them. In general both a cow’s robust immune system and our ability to quickly fix any problems we miss mean that this is perfectly adequate care
@@annieb823 abscesses are pockets of crap and bacteria and pus. They're dirty to start with. Him sticking his hand in there without a glove isn't going to do anymore harm than what's inside the abscess to start with. They showed the flushing of the pocket and they'll administer antibiotics and anti-inflammatories and that bull will heal no problem. People that aren't familiar with large animal vet care can be shocked when they see what can happen in order to get to the center of the problem. Definitely not what a small animal vet will do. Lol.
Me in vet class: gets blood on my hands when bandaging up a rabbit that tore her claw Classmates: ewww you should be wearing gloves Actual veterinarians:
Good job, you guys truly care....awesome. I love all animals....he couldn't tell ya till it got bad. If the bull could talk.....THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!
