Stop apologising for breathing - I’m confident I speak for us all when I say we know it’s serious cardio you’re putting in there! And your hands omg it’s a tough job but thank god you’re doing it. Kudos Caleb x
"Sharp straight edges break; rounded corners are stronger." You've incidentally just described why airplane windows are shaped the way they are. :) I always appreciate answers to the "why" of certain approaches!
When you watch Caleb, one thing is for certain, you will be able to follow his, clear, and understandable explanations while he turns what looks like a dead Oak tree into functional hooves again 🤠🧡🇿🇦
Well done. I would never have allowed my horses' hooves to get into this condition. Glad you are taking care of horses whose hooves have been neglected.
You, Sir are an artist....Your attitude to the horses comfort is so appreciated....I have never heard of a farrier doing the bevel and after your explanation I appreciate your work even more...So glad you popped up on my feed...❤
@@honeykin7890 The hair around a horse's hoof is called feathers. Some breeds are known for their trademark long, fluffy feathers. Ex: the Budweiser Clydesdales. Many working horse breeds have feathers and they should be left long.
I started watching this, and The Hoof GP from Scotland. I never knew learning about horse and cow hoves could be so interesting. I even looked up the evolution of the anatomy.
I work in healthcare and it was wild to hear you say 'thrush' in the context of horse hooves lol. I usually see it as oral thrush in people, so it was very cool to learn that thrush (or something with the same general name of 'thrush') can be found in such a drastically different part of a completely different animal.
Great job. Your a great farrier. She looked 100% better. These draft horses get so flared out if you don’t stay on top of them. Like you say, they are heavy. I bet she’ll feel so much better. Beautiful girl.
Wonderful trimming! I started trimming my own horse a little over a year ago, and can definitely agree on how much WORK the rasping is!! Because I do her myself, I tend to do weekly touch-ups with the rasp, and even rasping that little often has me dripping sweat. Another nice thing about doing weekly maintenance, is I can leave that "extra" material, because I know I'm on top of things, and it will never get overgrown. So I don't have to pare her down to try to make it last six weeks. I have also found that keeping her frogs trimmed up has almost completely eliminated the thrush she was always having, back when I had a farrier who never touched them.
You rock!! Fabulous job! Thank you for the depth of caring and willingness to do a such an intensive procedure to help this horse, and countless others. I wish we had more farriers like you more readily available.
When someone is working hard it shows and this is hard work. I often wonder about how your back holds up and then you talked about the jack that helps you. 😄 I enjoy these videos so much. You and Nate the hoof guy (he does cows) are amazing. Thanks for what you do! ✨
You did a real nice job on her hooves. She's going to feel better with her feet aligned. I hope that her caregivers keep her on schedule in the future.
My first viewing. You explain very well and thoroughly what you are doing. I saw that hood crack and did not know if you would address my wonderment of it. But sue enough, you covered and explained the cracks. Thank you so much. This is extremely hard work, especially on a horse that has had neglected hooves. It must feel so good to them when you work on them as it seems most all horses are quite cooperative.
Beautiful job! My friend had an Appy with tough feet. She used to paint on a little cod liver oil. He would then lick the bowl clean of the leftovers. His feet improved 100% and the shine on his coat from licking the bowl was amazing!!
Like people, one size never fits all. I commend you for taking the horses needs into account. Her feet (and feathers) look amazing after your hard work in the heat. Thank you so much.
This is hard work and you do it day in and day out. It's that not that you love the pain, it's that you love what do and it shows. Helping those horses has to be a good feeling.
Lakota is BEAUTIFUL! ❤ And your job is looking very nice! I would love to see her next appointment to see the improvement in those cracks. 💪🤩😍 Maybe that could be content for a future video. 🎉
I've had my hoofit stand for 10 years now...just recently moved the cradle to a thick cloth cradle...didn't have the spare cash to buy a new cradle at the time...And yes the hoof jack cradle will fit this stand...but do love my hoof-it stand..
An old time saddlebred trainer had me apply egg white to the coronary band of the foot. He said no hoof oil for the same reason - the hoof can't absorb moisture. Thanks Caleb for your good commonsense explanations. Lakota looks so much better. With you, the horses come first.
I really enjoy that you explain what you are doing and why. It's amazing you got her hooves in such good shape in one trimming. She's a pretty girl. Thank you.
A lot of people watch these videos that don’t have a horse, or know much about them. As someone who does have show horses. I can assure you that this guy knows his stuff and good farriers are a dying breed and hard to find…. and it’ll cost $$ every six weeks, but it’s extremely important for the overall health of the horse.
Lakota is a beautiful girl, I was going to ask if she was still working, but, you answered that question, only because you mentioned her arthritis, awesome job as always Caleb, your commentary is really excellent, you explain everything you are doing, and so respectful of the horses you're working on, thank you Caleb, take care 👍💙🐎
Awesome frog work (🐸) 😄, Great explanation! Beautiful farrier work!! Fabulous transformation! 👏🏼 we just know that horse is going to be a happy animal on all four hooves❤
This is the first farrier video with voiceover I have ever seen. I love it! Finally, I'm properly enjoying watching these videos, being told what's going on and slowly learning the phrases 😅 Keep it going 👍😁
Thank you for your videos……looking after these amazing animals is so rewarding for all of us….to be honest when I was young I had this on my bucket list to do once in my life but things change…..
It must be so hard to know there are horses you have worked on who need continuing help from you and for whatever reason the owners don't bring you back. I had such guilt when my farrier came a week or two later than usual -- and I had darn good reason because I traveled! I respected my farrier as much if not more than my vet. No hooves No horse. I was blessed with horses who could go barefoot but I made it a priority to keep those bare feet in tip top condition. I taught them to stand in a bucket or tub to soak in water if I didn't have a creek to soak them in. That made such a difference when the farrier came to do his magic. Great lesson and video.
Breathing loudly is better than not breathing. LOL You are articulat, informative, interesting and knowledgable about your passion. Some other narrations on many subjects are boring, uninformative and have serious grammar errors. I am not a horse user or owner but I enjoy your videoa.. Good Job from Southern California
using a hoof stand regularly for just grooming is really beneficial training. makes life easier for everyone, horse included, for when it's farrier day.

I also breathe 😊
@@nicem8746 you get a gold star too x
@@nicem8746 No breathe, no live. - Miyagi
Very tough indeed, especially when it's hot and the hooves are super dry and hard like a rock
Deep breaths are much better than hyperventilating and dying! Never care what people think of your heavy breathing when you exercise, it’s healthy! 😁

Sweetie---you go ahead and breathe as loudly as you need to. You're working hard and helping giant horses.
Well done. I would never have allowed my horses' hooves to get into this condition. Glad you are taking care of horses whose hooves have been neglected.
I know nothing about this but watching your videos I feel big relief for the horses.
“As strong as a farrier’s back”, is so true!
Love seeing actual hooves emerge from the misshapen mess at the the beginning
You, Sir are an artist....Your attitude to the horses comfort is so appreciated....I have never heard of a farrier doing the bevel and after your explanation I appreciate your work even more...So glad you popped up on my feed...❤
Good job Caleb. I thought that second hoof was beyond saving looking like it did. A master act, making it a proper hoof again. Thank you for sharing!
Yes! Feathers are sacred! Lakota's feet look beautiful. Thanks for the video.
Feathers on a horse?
@@honeykin7890 The hair around a horse's hoof is called feathers. Some breeds are known for their trademark long, fluffy feathers. Ex: the Budweiser Clydesdales. Many working horse breeds have feathers and they should be left long.
@@JaneClevelandthey should be left long only if they are cared for weekly, minimum. feathers cause a looot of diseases in the leg and hoof.
I take my hat off to you. I thank you for what you did for this horse. You explained what you do so clearly. Again thank you for all you do. God bless
I started watching this, and The Hoof GP from Scotland. I never knew learning about horse and cow hoves could be so interesting. I even looked up the evolution of the anatomy.
I recommend Nate the Hoof Guy as well! He has both short and long videos for cow trimming.
I LOVE THE HOOF GP
I watch all 3. What these guys do for these animals is amazing@@janeenschultz8502
Lol. I literally came from a video from the hoof gp. 😅
Don’t ever apologize for working hard and doing what you do. Your hands show your heart!
your heavy breathing is just an indicator how physically hard this job is
As my father would say, that’s the sound of a man working for a living.🖖
I work in healthcare and it was wild to hear you say 'thrush' in the context of horse hooves lol. I usually see it as oral thrush in people, so it was very cool to learn that thrush (or something with the same general name of 'thrush') can be found in such a drastically different part of a completely different animal.
My understanding is that it's the same fungal pathogen in both cases, although I will admit that I'm an expert in neither human nor equine healthcare.
Lakota is beautiful. Your hard work has enhanced that, Caleb. Thank you for letting us see.
Great job. Your a great farrier. She looked 100% better. These draft horses get so flared out if you don’t stay on top of them. Like you say, they are heavy. I bet she’ll feel so much better. Beautiful girl.
Great job and Lakota looks happy with that grin at the end. Thank you for helping animals. ❤

Love how you show the horse at the end, and learning the names of tools and parts of horses feet. The new hooves look good.
The big yawn at the end!❤️
She felt relief!
I’ve never even considered there was a difference between breeds. Well u learn something new each day, cheers mate 👍✌️🇬🇧

Like people, one size never fits all. I commend you for taking the horses needs into account. Her feet (and feathers) look amazing after your hard work in the heat. Thank you so much.
Wow!! I’m learning so much! I’m more educated in milking cattle. So beautifully done!!❤❤
This is hard work and you do it day in and day out. It's that not that you love the pain, it's that you love what do and it shows. Helping those horses has to be a good feeling.
Beautiful work for a beautiful horse. Thanks for the explanation of what you were doing and why. It makes sense. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful horse. I like your comments as you go through the trimming.

I love your passion for horses! I love how you explain everything. Thank you!!
Love your work & the individualized care you gave her feet!! ❤❤

Keep it going 👍😁
Thank you for the nice video. I’ve never been around horses but I truly admire them and the folks who care for them.
I bet Lakota feels miles better now her feet are done and the feathers are iconic to Draft Horses , loved the vid Caleb .
I find this so noble and deeply satisfying
So interesting.. My Gramps in the 1920's -30's was a farrier! Thanks for keeping these beautiful animals feeling great. Take good care of your back!
Wonderful transformation on that 2nd foot, especially.
You did a really nice job, thanks for beautiful big conscientious. She’s beautiful!
You are a well educated artist at what you do!🐴😊
Wonderful love how you explain everything. Really enjoyed it
As always, I really enjoyed the video. I love the big breeds of horses. ❤ To me they are very beautiful. 🙂🦋

It’s not how you breathe… it’s that you are still breathing! Lol . hot day, great job. Very good clear explanation. Thanks for sharing. 🇨🇦
She is so cute! I love seeing the whole horse after.
Wow !!! What a Fantastic job they look sooo much better the horse should feel much better 😊❤
Thanks for looking after these beautiful animals.
She's beautiful. Thank you for the video and making her life better
I love your dialog. I'm learning so much.
I enjoyed watching for sure! Even though I don't own horse's, I still love how majestic they are. 😊
I appreciate you heart for the comfort of the horse
Just found your channel...love it!! I used to train Standies and would hang with the farrier every month, so very therapeutic. Great job!!
Thank you for what you do for these incredible animals! Love the new intro as well, really dope!
You did a really good job with her feet. Kudos to you.

Well, if a horse needs orthotics, I'm happy that there are ferriers that do the job so well.
The horse looks so relaxed after the treatment
Looks like a much happier horse, those hooves were in quite a state! Thank you for sharing!
All that heavy breathing shows your doing your job properly.and the horses hoof great job shows you care .looks a lot better thanks to you buddy.🐎👍♥️
Amazing the transformation. You are a master farrier!
What a great job, Caleb! Thanks for sharing and for giving explanations!
such a beautiful horse!
Good work. Thank you. Bless
It looks like you are doing a great job. I know that she must be happy to have you working on her feet.
Lovely work on a lovely horse😊
❤❤❤❤J'adore ton accent et ta voix. Merci de partager.❤❤
good job, hope to see her again in 3-4 weeks so she doesnt get that long again.
Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge about hoof care.
Great job! 👍👏 Always err on leaving too much, not too little. ✨😀
Absolutely love your videos. So informational. Thabks for sharing!!❤
using a hoof stand regularly for just grooming is really beneficial training. makes life easier for everyone, horse included, for when it's farrier day.
Love Lakota!! Those hoofs look 💯percent better❤🤠😁
I loooove your videos - so well explained.
I must have enjoyed the video, I’ve watched it twice! 😂
Great job Caleb, and Lakota is such a pretty horse, tfs Julie 🇬🇧
Beautiful job! Your commentary is very informative and your care for the horses well-being wonderful. Love the new introduction too!
Thanks for explaining what you are doing.
Draft horses are so beautiful!
Great job Caleb.
Enjoyed your video!
Great explanations on everything and she’s beautiful
Hydrate! Never too much! Great job!
Wow, Fantastic work!
SHE'S SO GORGEOUS!
That hoof is HUGE!
Don't worry about your breathing. You are dealing with a 2000 lb. animal. This is labor intensive! You are doing a great job!
Loved your program, nicely explained, and ever so interesting. Thank you.
