Its not quite as much as it looks or most people assume. Hell, was most boring but peaceful time of my life the 8 months I did it. Really, besides the seasonal events like harvest time its primarily doing mundane bullshit to keep busy because you're so bored. Harvest time is a flurry of back breaking work but that's a week or two per year. Like I said, besides feeding and watering cattle, laying poison on crops etc. The occasional 5 fence repair... There's not much to it. Plants grow themselves and only require regular spraying. And a few days work before and after. Winter sucked though. Had to bust pond ice open every morning for cattle and drop off roll of hay. Still, took me an hour... Was done before sun was up. Its work but it really gets overblown how much there is. No more than anything else. Hell, favorite past time of farmers/ranchers is sittin on ass bullshitting at the corner store. Haha
@Ben States calm down they arent the smartest LOLLLL ! Knowing how to repair stuff requires practice not intelligence !! Farmers are maybe farm smart but they aren’t smart smart LOL

Isn’t it crazy how things you would never been personally interested in doing yourself can be so captivating to watch? I don’t think I could do this as a life path but I definitely watched the whole video and appreciate the love put into it.
The framer, rancher, or cowboy life definitely isn’t for everyone. I’m a goat breeder and I swear I’ve developed PTSD because of those goats. I love my goats as much as any of my animals but they’re the most annoying thing I’ve ever had to deal with in my life. They get stuck in a fence every 14 minutes, they’re impressively loud and keep me up at night, they constantly try to escape, (sometimes succeeding but they usually just get stuck in a fence) toenail trimming isn’t very fun since you can easily be kicked in the face or cut yourself, worming them is just annoying, the Bucks/Billys (whatever you want to call them) are just… weird, why do they piss on their own faces? Also they’ll destroy any landscaping you may have. Also goat birth is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my entire life (and that’s really saying something) and you’ll smell awful for like 4 days after it.
I can only imagine how much better she feels after draining that crap out and patching her up. Probably like popping and bandaging a blister on your foot x100
@@Liv_erEater04 I pop them when I get them all the time. They’re just gonna burst from something else anyway. But it does raise the risk of infection so you gotta be careful and treat the wound after it’s been drained- much like this guy did for the lesion on that poor cow’s hoof. Moleskin is a godsend for sores and blisters if you ever get one that’s on your foot
@Julio Aragão This is helping them definitely. Prevents hoof rot and infections. Poor cow though, that looks painful. As a former showman, I can tell you with show market cattle, this is a major priority to avoid overgrown hooves. Much appreciation for good trimmers who know what they are doing. This is not the most glamorous job, but it is very important to any farmer or showman’s cattle.
I grew up on a ranch and my family didn't do half as much for their cattle or horses. I've lived in the city for years now and this was so soothing. So glad these babes have you taking care of them ♡
really depends on the cattle, the ones that are raised for meat don't get that much individual care (although they are checked when vaccinated/castrated) because they dont stick around for that long (brought in at a young age but already grown up) just for about one year so they can get muscle and fat, breeding stock and dairy cows are different, they are extremely well treated because of their genetics and breeding performance, and milk production respectively
@@Shield_OW I grew up on a ranch that literally sold offspring for meat/bulls as soon as they were old enough but the cows that stayed there their whole life literally just grazed and got some block feed every now and then. That was literally it. My mom always treated her horses really well but they were solely hers. Cattle just kinda got ignored bc they ' easy animals ' 😕 I only really found out how much they were neglected after growing up and learning more about their need. Its sad.
Everyone is different and they didn't make a huge profit off anything. Mainly just to get certain exemptions. Its really sad that their care wasn't prioritized but it happens a lot tbh.
Yeah poor little cows, I wish we treated them all with more respect, but people think that if you’re gonna kill them anyways for meat they shouldn’t care about their health. Which is sad, but I think it’s definitely true how they think in the large farm business.
I don't know what's cooler. The fact that this popped into my feed or the fact that there's a dude out there who literally just helps hooved animals feel better and educates people about it.
Indeed, This gentleman is a hero for these cows. I've been a fan for a few months now. When one of these videos had first appeared as a suggestion, I had to watch. I was raised on a farm and we had equine farriers, but not one for bovine. I find this so interesting.
Much respect and love for your work. Cows should be as comfortable and happy as they can be, so addressing their discomforts and pains like this always makes me happy. Especially when I get to see such informative videos on it.
You do understand that her injures are because of this someone that locked her in a cage where she has to step on her shit and other things all day, if she was free in nature that would probably wouldnt happen Hope one day aliens will lock people like him and you in a cage and when you injured will treat you the same way
@@aaaronias You really think they can't get injured just by walking all day on grass and earth ? If I take horses for examples, they have more chance of getting hurt in the wild and with no one to take care of them. And what make you think she's in a cage all day ? Beside this cow have 0 chance of survival all alone in the wild.
Guess most cows wouldnt need that if we would let them go freely,sadly humanity exploded so much since the 1970 that we cant go without mass production. I would really enjoy to see us go back to a more natural holding and hunting for meat. Free cows would sure be more healthy food and would have a life more enjoyable to the point we hunt them down.
I work with horses, not cows. But from what I understand it works a lot like a horses foot, they don't feel a thing on the outside. The kind of like how people have nail beds of our fingernails it starts somewhere up underneath but a good deal of hoof is just completely unfeeling.
He explained in the video, I believe. He says something to the effect of "the area where I'm touching is soft horn tissue. I don't want to remove that because it's still living tissue"
Damn so it basically is like living with a really tight shoe for the rest of your life. Thank God for hoof guys like Nate over here who'll go high and low just to keep cows comfy. Pretty wholesome line of work you got over there, Nate. God bless you.
I didn’t expect to see this. As someone who works with humans rather than cows (or other mammals), all I can say is: a healer is a healer is a healer. It’s beautiful to see.
It's so damn satisfying to see the wound opened, cleaned and treated, then wrapped up protectively. Somehow you can just feel the relief from the finished treatment, just like when we treat our own injuries. :)
Salicylic acid is a active ingredient in lots human skin/face care too. So it’s not a rough or scary thing for a cow, it’s no different then us washing our faces! It’s honestly probably a lot less invasive for that cow then it is for us too.
Yep. Salicylic acid has the same effects as aspirin just about, but it can cause pretty painful stomach problems if you ingest it. Fine for topical applications, but for consumption they turn it into acetylsalicilyc acid(aspirin) whose side effects are less severe.
Helping animals to make it feel comfortable and to release it from pain is a rewarding works, I salute to you sir. May god bless you and your family sir…
I don't know why this popped up in my recommendation but this is fascinating to watch. I used to watch animal shows when I was a kid. Loved watching horses getting operations. God bless farmers.
It's amazing how a 1000 kg cow can go through so much pain due to such a small pebble. Amazing job! Very informative on how you apply the chemicals to speed up the healing process. Very cool vid!
Imagine we getting super tiny wood splinters or thorn under our own nails. That's exactly the same thing, only it's worse for this cow because she has to put the hoove down to be able to walk. So yeah.
Doesn’t hurt when you clip your nails. Having an ingrown nail however is painful. Removing a hooked section of nail and squeezing the puss out is actually more relieving than painful. Like scratching an itch. Seeing the pressure relieved from this bubbling wound probably was a feeling of relief for the cow.
It essentially works like our nails or hair. There are no nerves in the hoof so as long as you don't cut too low, the animal won't feel it. It will grow back with time
I always thought I wanted to own cows and horses as a kid, but now I see how much work it truly is. I know understand why it’s such a full time job and why people have farmhands! Frankly I don’t think I’m cut out for it, but I have a newfound respect for people who do.
I have absolutely no idea how I ever ended up here but man an I hooked. These treatments are fascinating to watch and such a buzz to see these poor cows instantly relieved of their pain. Great work, sir.
Always amazes me that this doesn't hurt them or that you don't cut "too deep". I know this trimming is akin to clipping your toenails, but if you cut into the bed, man it hurts like h3ll. Also interesting that the infection doesn't get worse considering the weight of the animal and the fact they walk in dirt/mud/excrement on an injured foot. But I know you know what youre doing and anything really serious would be consulted with a vet before hacking away at a trouble spot. Cheers.
Southern girl here who lives next to a cow field and helps take care of them, sometimes they do get worse but it's not common and usually caused by things unrelated to the clipping and cleaning.
@@snkybrki I'm not a farmer but no it's not a thing. Cows are anywhere from like 1000-2000+lbs. A person is nowhere near strong enough to overcome the weight. If the person happens to be some insane bodybuilder and was strong enough to do it it's still not going to happen, cows are fairly wary animals and don't like random people just approach them from behind. Even then if the cow did let the massive body builder approach and start pushing the cow has muscles that are even bigger then the body building and will naturally lean into what's pushing it and good luck pushing over all that weight, plus it leaning into you, plus it's muscle force. If it's the "sleeping cow" well they laydown when they sleep so you can't push it over as it's already down. Lastly even if you managed to overcome all of that and it's an awake cow that you somehow tip the part of "cow tipping" is that you tip it and it can't get back up. Well as noted as cows lay down so they obvisouly can get back up with no issues. Thank you for reading my Cow tipping Ted talk
A clinical symptom of depression is the inability to find interest in anything, some ppl (younger) mistakes being bored as depression , also they would not be entertained by this cause again, they wouldn't have the ability to be entertained by even hobbies they love
I’ve lived in the city and suburbs my whole life and only ever get to see farms when I’m driving by rural parts of my state. It’s so refreshing to see what goes on in taking care of some of the animals.
Guy who does pest control for farmers here. It's really incredible, with the amount of cleaning and such that's involved. If the don't look after the animals they can lose a lot of money. Heck cows raised for beef in the UK have been treated like kings. Given food they like that's good for them. Loads of room to roam. Petted and given treats. It's incredible. So much more "real" than city life. Just way dirtier
Too bad they only care for them because it would be a money loss if they didn't. Don't be fooled into thinking they actually care about them, because they don't. I would know, I was born and raised on a farm and spent my whole life begging to know WHY we had to kill them? To this day, I will never understand how people can pretend to care and then send them to die like it's nothing.
@@panjamysy Grew up on a small farm in New Mexico. Our animals are an investment and a means of survival by providing both money and meat. But that isn't the only reason we care for them. We were brought up to treat them right, tend to their wounds. Wake up several times per night during snow storms to ensure the babies (and often the adults) are plenty warm. Deworm, feed the animals before leaving for school in the morning, and yes occasionally we'd have to put one down to prevent suffering for various reasons. So I'm not sure what your farming experience is and why you'd think farmers don't care. Please share
I’m not a farmer and know nothing about farming, but you sir know exactly what your doing, looking after these animals and taking well care of them seriously makes me want to give you a high five. You definitely deserve five stars. Keep blessed sir, our thoughts and prayers are with you. From West Yorkshire in the United Kingdom, as promised here are the five stars you really deserve sir ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Everyone saying that the algorithm is like "they'll watch anything lmao" are forgetting that this video is super high quality in composition, information, wholesomeness and brevity. The algorithm really does know you better than you know yourself
I grew up on ranches until I was 19. My dad did the animal doctoring. I love seeing The Hoof Guy do his profession as it takes me back to those happy days.
I just realized how amazing it is that someone cares for these cows, and then I thought about how if these are so common, they must be so overlooked in factory farmed cows :(
It does depend on herd sizes plus how many hands you have to monitor and identify animals with issues that can be taken care of. Most want to see the animals problem free because its profit loss if they have to be put down before proper sale time.
@@tgillies101 yeah right, but it also depends on the money the farmer has and if there are specialists who can come to the farm. One can do more harm if you are not trained in it....and today you will find less professionals in this fields, not only for cows but also for horses 😞
I was thinking about this too. I’ve heard horror stories from guys that work In slaughter houses it really scares me what happens to them. I understand that there has to be a supply for meat but it breaks my heart that most animals that a livestock don’t get took care of the way they need to.
whats really impressive to me is the fact that you can even find some of those deep lesions. to even know what to look for takes training far beyond just looking at a hoof.
Been a city kid all my life. This is so far removed from anything remotely going on in my life but I'm strangely drawn to this and fascinated by the process and his care.
A lot of people tend to look down on the “country bumpkins” as it where, and I love how you phrased it here, so far removed. There is A LOT that goes into the boring old production of dairy, meat, farming even, that people just flat out forget even exists or overlook as “easy”. Go to a farm sometime, there is a lot to learn that’s completely foreign to ya and it will be an eye opening cool experience, might even see why people love living out in the sticks doing this work.
This happens to horses too. Some people call it 'gravel' which is the name for an abscess. The horse can be so lame it won't move as the pain is so severe. My horse had an abscess and my farrier picked up his foot and pared away part of his sole ( which the horse doesn't feel) and the relief was instant as the pus was released. A poultice was applied and he was sound and walking normally. Sometimes the abscess is so deep in the foot and it has to work its way out and pops at the top of the foot. Farriers and vets are incredibly skilled people and l as a horse owner appreciate them so much. 🐎🐴👍
@@quito59 it's the pus from the abscess that bursts through the coronet band, which is the division of the top of the hoof to the lower leg of the horse. Those abbcesses are harder to treat and yes are painful.
I'm so amazed how the cow is not flailing around in a panic, it trusts you and knows you are there to help, it's like this rare understanding between animal and human is the only hard-line form of communication we have with them, big and small... I saw a guy treat an Elephants foot and the Elephant did not stomp on him, it knows, the cow is grateful to have pain relief. It s interesting work as well. Great content to put out there, not everyday we get to see this. Thankyou. 😉
@@geztrades2348 Yes cow and other hoofed animals hooves are always growing, much like our finger and toenails. Which is why farrier’s like this man, need to come around semi-regularly to maintain them.
Thank u so much for taking care of these sweet animals. I'm sure you ultimately save SO many lives! They are as important as a family pet, even if some dont think so. All creatures are precious ❤
Just goes to show how little most of us know about the true work that goes into raising livestock. Thanks for the video and thank you for UA-cam for recommending it.
Not just the work but compassion as well. Imagine having a whole farm and multiple herds and notice that one of you cows is walking differently and diagnose and treat the same day.
Nate the Hoof Guy: “We’ve got 979 in the shoot and she is favoring her right front foot.” Me, with no experience in the subject seeing this in my recommended: absolutely bestie we need to get to work on that
I don't remember asking to see a cow's hoof gets "repaired". Watched the entire video and subscribed. More interesting than any social influencer to date.
@@99halfnote i think it’s because it allows your mind to focus solely on this one activity that you’re enthralled in which kinda calms the over activity down a bit
I didn't remember how much I loved watching our farrier work on our horses. 🐎I was fascinated! I just happened upon your channel and I'm so glad I did. I think you and your fellow artists are wizards when it comes to the care of our horses feet. You do great work! I'll enjoy watching more of your content!🦄
I imagine this is the cow's equivalent of having a pressurized cyst underneath the toenail... I can't imagine how incredibly painful/uncomfortable that must be
Well, having the skin quality of a corpse half the time, I took a sterile nail to one of those myself.. hah, nail. And that did it. Though I would rather headbutt a bandsaw than do that again. Never had one since, thank god for that..
And then imagine you can't speak english and tell anyone about it early on. I feel sorry that animals often live a long time with problems before telltale symptoms appear
I take vet science but this video actually taught me a lot more about cows then a textbook ever has seeing from the first person pov on how to treat a cows hoof was very helpful, subscribed because these videos are really educational
@@Lewisiaisoutofcontext I've been taking vet science since freshman year of highschool I'm currently in my senior year but basically it involves learning about the treatment of different animals from domestic to farmyard animals, plus learning their anatomy/behavior/ what kind of diseases they can get etc. in my school we did hands on training with rodents, Amphibians, small mammals, and sea animals etc. learning how to take care of them and treat them incase they get sick I missed a year and a half of hands on learning since we had to learn virtually due to covid but now in my last year we're learning about business/finance side of it on like cost efficiency. So passing all four years of the program lets you receive a NOCTI certificate when you graduate basically saying your trained and qualified in handling and dealing with small animals, you also need to take a final test in order to receive the certificate but for everyone in my year that passed all 4 years we're exempted from taking the test so we technically only need to pass this last term to receive it
@@exos1bnetworth Oh, I see! It sounds kind of like what I studied before to become a vet tech (worked as a tech for a couple of years before changing my mind and applying to vet school).
@@LegionOfShrooms it’s no worry. He’s careful not to go too deep to actually hurt the cow so for the cow this would be the equivalent of you going out and getting a manicure
Can't believe how well mannered your cattle are. I remember trying to tie a cows leg with my dad before so we could treat its mastitis - couldn't believe the power of its single leg, almost impossible to restain it.
@@ant1crist0 So i discovered this channel yesterday. and i can't stop watching this now for some reason. but what i have been able to gather. the cows don't feel any pain from this. even if the areas get exposed. but it can feel pain if those exposed parts are handled roughly. and at that point the cow will likely flinch. so he will try and work around it.
@@ant1crist0 we actually do have a soft bit of nail like they do but it is not very large and assuming you never get your nail ripped off you will never see it. If you ever get a bad blood blister under your nail what they do is just drill a small hole directly over it and then apply pressure that is probably the closest most humans will ever get to this due to us not walking on our nails.
Why did i watch this whole thing? Can't lie, it's kind of gross but fascinating at the same time! I was wincing the whole time as if that was _my_ hoof! Hope the cow is feeling better now
These poor cows literally have a "toothache in their heels" like ol" Dan Tucker in the song from Little House on the Prairie and here you are, Hoof Guy, bringing blessed relief to these beloved creatures.
I'm not a farmer but this guy knows what he's doing. I would compare his work to a dentist. It's not just our food it's an animal that provides a lot for us. Great job buddy, keep up the good work!
Yeah as angel said, sadly cows are just food, milk and leather. Wish it wasnt so but I'd say most people dont even have a conscious connection between beef and milk to cows, they just see food and drink.
I was a large animal veterinarian for the first 1.5 years of my career, almost 20 years ago, and yet whenever one of your videos pops up, I can smell everything. The dairy, the foot, and the abscess.
Well, these things are things that never leave you when you are still a veterinarian, or so I presume… after all, you still treat animals, even if you don’t treat cows. And while I am thinking about it, I want to say something to you. I know you never hear this enough… but thank you for what you do for us all. Veterinarians are unsung heroes and heroines of the modern world, fighting to keep our most faithful companions alive and happy, making sure their end is peaceful and dignified, and helping even the most mundane of pets continue to grace us with their beauty and companionship for years to come. Thank you. You might not be treating a human… but Grandma’s little Pomeranian is just as important to her as any other family. For you to be willing to do this so long takes a lot of guts, a lot of resolve, and a lot of heart…
@@anonymoustx2146 you definitely can't become a vet without going to college and then university, it's medical school and you have to go for a long time, so if you don't want to go to college then being a vet probably isn't the career for you.
I literally grew up on a farm and never knew this could even happen to a cow's hoof. This man truly cares alot about the animals he works on! What an informative video!
Same! I wonder how long it takes for this injury to form. My mother would get them checked as soon as she noticed a lame cow and I think only once was there an infection and it was nothing like this.
How can the man truly care when we all know this animal is being explored and incapacitated from living their life? We all know it will die and be in someone's plate, how's that truly caring?

Isn’t it crazy how things you would never been personally interested in doing yourself can be so captivating to watch? I don’t think I could do this as a life path but I definitely watched the whole video and appreciate the love put into it.
You've described the show "Dirty Jobs"
If anything it should show you that farmers, ranchers, and cowboys respect and care for the lives of their animals.
I feel like it's just people explaining something you can see they know. It gets me so calm. Like yeah, I trust you, you know what you're doing
I would suggest Doctor Pimple Popper to your "rando but omg so awesome" video perusing.
The framer, rancher, or cowboy life definitely isn’t for everyone. I’m a goat breeder and I swear I’ve developed PTSD because of those goats. I love my goats as much as any of my animals but they’re the most annoying thing I’ve ever had to deal with in my life. They get stuck in a fence every 14 minutes, they’re impressively loud and keep me up at night, they constantly try to escape, (sometimes succeeding but they usually just get stuck in a fence) toenail trimming isn’t very fun since you can easily be kicked in the face or cut yourself, worming them is just annoying, the Bucks/Billys (whatever you want to call them) are just… weird, why do they piss on their own faces? Also they’ll destroy any landscaping you may have.
Also goat birth is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my entire life (and that’s really saying something) and you’ll smell awful for like 4 days after it.
Awe, she's beautiful! I'm no vegan but it's so refreshing when these animals are actually taken care of. Much respect to you for relieving her pain.
These animals were specifically breed to be food for humans, this wouldn't naturally occur in nature.

@@Liv_erEater04 well technically you can if you get your doctor's permission to pop it.
@@shinigami9851 Because for most people they won't/don't know how to keep it clean and it gets infected. You don't need permission to pop a blister 🤣
@@Liv_erEater04 I pop them when I get them all the time. They’re just gonna burst from something else anyway. But it does raise the risk of infection so you gotta be careful and treat the wound after it’s been drained- much like this guy did for the lesion on that poor cow’s hoof. Moleskin is a godsend for sores and blisters if you ever get one that’s on your foot

@Julio Aragão This is helping them definitely. Prevents hoof rot and infections. Poor cow though, that looks painful. As a former showman, I can tell you with show market cattle, this is a major priority to avoid overgrown hooves. Much appreciation for good trimmers who know what they are doing. This is not the most glamorous job, but it is very important to any farmer or showman’s cattle.

I grew up on a ranch and my family didn't do half as much for their cattle or horses. I've lived in the city for years now and this was so soothing. So glad these babes have you taking care of them ♡
really depends on the cattle, the ones that are raised for meat don't get that much individual care (although they are checked when vaccinated/castrated) because they dont stick around for that long (brought in at a young age but already grown up) just for about one year so they can get muscle and fat, breeding stock and dairy cows are different, they are extremely well treated because of their genetics and breeding performance, and milk production respectively
@@Shield_OW yes family raises catyke for meat and science because of that we don't check hoofs that much though we do take good care of our horses
@@Shield_OW I grew up on a ranch that literally sold offspring for meat/bulls as soon as they were old enough but the cows that stayed there their whole life literally just grazed and got some block feed every now and then. That was literally it. My mom always treated her horses really well but they were solely hers. Cattle just kinda got ignored bc they ' easy animals ' 😕 I only really found out how much they were neglected after growing up and learning more about their need. Its sad.
Everyone is different and they didn't make a huge profit off anything. Mainly just to get certain exemptions. Its really sad that their care wasn't prioritized but it happens a lot tbh.
Yeah poor little cows, I wish we treated them all with more respect, but people think that if you’re gonna kill them anyways for meat they shouldn’t care about their health. Which is sad, but I think it’s definitely true how they think in the large farm business.

It's amazing how a 1000 kg cow can go through so much pain due to such a small pebble. Amazing job! Very informative on how you apply the chemicals to speed up the healing process. Very cool vid!

Imagine when it’s being slaughtered
@@osas5211 I can imagine the pebble hurts way more 💀
Imagine we getting super tiny wood splinters or thorn under our own nails. That's exactly the same thing, only it's worse for this cow because she has to put the hoove down to be able to walk. So yeah.
I don't think a cow can be 1000 kg.
you're such a great healer. These poor cows who suffer from hoof injuries are lucky to have a caring caretaker. I find these videos fascinating.
I know this doesn't hurt the cow, since she's not mooing in pain or anything, but damn does my foot hurt just watching this!
@@-cr3t0r-91 im pretty sure its thd cow's nails
Doesn’t hurt when you clip your nails. Having an ingrown nail however is painful. Removing a hooked section of nail and squeezing the puss out is actually more relieving than painful. Like scratching an itch.
Seeing the pressure relieved from this bubbling wound probably was a feeling of relief for the cow.
It essentially works like our nails or hair. There are no nerves in the hoof so as long as you don't cut too low, the animal won't feel it. It will grow back with time
some animals actually don’t communicate/make noises when they’re in pain so idk if this is an exception

I have absolutely no idea how I ever ended up here but man an I hooked. These treatments are fascinating to watch and such a buzz to see these poor cows instantly relieved of their pain. Great work, sir.
Always amazes me that this doesn't hurt them or that you don't cut "too deep". I know this trimming is akin to clipping your toenails, but if you cut into the bed, man it hurts like h3ll. Also interesting that the infection doesn't get worse considering the weight of the animal and the fact they walk in dirt/mud/excrement on an injured foot. But I know you know what youre doing and anything really serious would be consulted with a vet before hacking away at a trouble spot. Cheers.
That's why they wrap it and put on that rubber hoof thing, to keep it clean.
Southern girl here who lives next to a cow field and helps take care of them, sometimes they do get worse but it's not common and usually caused by things unrelated to the clipping and cleaning.
@@funnyfunnyvalentine7991 Is cow tipping a thing? I've always wanted to ask.
@@snkybrki I'm not a farmer but no it's not a thing. Cows are anywhere from like 1000-2000+lbs. A person is nowhere near strong enough to overcome the weight. If the person happens to be some insane bodybuilder and was strong enough to do it it's still not going to happen, cows are fairly wary animals and don't like random people just approach them from behind. Even then if the cow did let the massive body builder approach and start pushing the cow has muscles that are even bigger then the body building and will naturally lean into what's pushing it and good luck pushing over all that weight, plus it leaning into you, plus it's muscle force.
If it's the "sleeping cow" well they laydown when they sleep so you can't push it over as it's already down.
Lastly even if you managed to overcome all of that and it's an awake cow that you somehow tip the part of "cow tipping" is that you tip it and it can't get back up. Well as noted as cows lay down so they obvisouly can get back up with no issues.
Thank you for reading my Cow tipping Ted talk

It's really incredible, with the amount of cleaning and such that's involved.

Too bad they only care for them because it would be a money loss if they didn't. Don't be fooled into thinking they actually care about them, because they don't.

@@panjamysy Grew up on a small farm in New Mexico. Our animals are an investment and a means of survival by providing both money and meat. But that isn't the only reason we care for them.

It does depend on herd sizes plus how many hands you have to monitor and identify animals with issues that can be taken care of. Most want to see the animals problem free because its profit loss if they have to be put down before proper sale time.
@@tgillies101 yeah right, but it also depends on the money the farmer has and if there are specialists who can come to the farm. One can do more harm if you are not trained in it....and today you will find less professionals in this fields, not only for cows but also for horses 😞
I was thinking about this too. I’ve heard horror stories from guys that work In slaughter houses it really scares me what happens to them. I understand that there has to be a supply for meat but it breaks my heart that most animals that a livestock don’t get took care of the way they need to.

This happens to horses too. Some people call it 'gravel' which is the name for an abscess. The horse can be so lame it won't move as the pain is so severe. My horse had an abscess and my farrier picked up his foot and pared away part of his sole ( which the horse doesn't feel) and the relief was instant as the pus was released. A poultice was applied and he was sound and walking normally. Sometimes the abscess is so deep in the foot and it has to work its way out and pops at the top of the foot. Farriers and vets are incredibly skilled people and l as a horse owner appreciate them so much. 🐎🐴👍

I think you and your fellow artists are wizards when it comes to the care of our horses feet. You do great work! I'll enjoy watching more of your content!🦄
Hello 👋 Susan. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I am Zack Hudson am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Why are you so thirsty
Cow getting treated:
15 million people: Interesting
I feel relieved for this cow.
17 now
Yep
Same. Idk how i got here or why i stayed but i dont mind
This randomly showed up on my recommended, (I haven’t ever watched anything about cows,) and I am confused but don’t hate it.
I imagine this is the cow's equivalent of having a pressurized cyst underneath the toenail... I can't imagine how incredibly painful/uncomfortable that must be
Well, having the skin quality of a corpse half the time, I took a sterile nail to one of those myself.. hah, nail. And that did it. Though I would rather headbutt a bandsaw than do that again. Never had one since, thank god for that..
especially when you weigh 2,500 lbs
And then imagine you can't speak english and tell anyone about it early on.
I feel sorry that animals often live a long time with problems before telltale symptoms appear
plus, it has to *walk on it.*
Plus the blood oozing out of it made my heart sink.
I take vet science but this video actually taught me a lot more about cows then a textbook ever has seeing from the first person pov on how to treat a cows hoof was very helpful, subscribed because these videos are really educational
Eyyyy EXO-L
@@cabbagepatchcyii2036 yess!! we are everywhere~
Oh what does "vet science" entail? I'm a vet student so I'm very curious lol.
@@Lewisiaisoutofcontext I've been taking vet science since freshman year of highschool I'm currently in my senior year but basically it involves learning about the treatment of different animals from domestic to farmyard animals, plus learning their anatomy/behavior/ what kind of diseases they can get etc. in my school we did hands on training with rodents, Amphibians, small mammals, and sea animals etc. learning how to take care of them and treat them incase they get sick I missed a year and a half of hands on learning since we had to learn virtually due to covid but now in my last year we're learning about business/finance side of it on like cost efficiency. So passing all four years of the program lets you receive a NOCTI certificate when you graduate basically saying your trained and qualified in handling and dealing with small animals, you also need to take a final test in order to receive the certificate but for everyone in my year that passed all 4 years we're exempted from taking the test so we technically only need to pass this last term to receive it
@@exos1bnetworth Oh, I see! It sounds kind of like what I studied before to become a vet tech (worked as a tech for a couple of years before changing my mind and applying to vet school).
Nobody:
UA-cam Recommendations: Here this is how you clean a cow's foot.
XD
And yet here we are, lol.
Exactly. I’ve never lived or worked on a farm and never will. But this is pretty fascinating.
You think it's some sort of scheduled conditioning?
Hahaha! Same. I do work with cows but not sure I ever told UA-cam lol. I was just watching some Lost Boys clips. 🤣
Poor girl. She's probably thinking "ahhh that feels so much better....."
so true!
I would be so afraid of hurting it lol.
@@LegionOfShrooms fr i kept wincing just watching it
@@LegionOfShrooms it’s no worry. He’s careful not to go too deep to actually hurt the cow so for the cow this would be the equivalent of you going out and getting a manicure
No she’s probably thinking “ouch oh never mind”
There's a lot of potato peeling energy in this.
Exactly what I said 🤣
Right !! lol
Oh my God
Cows are potatoes
Isn't it painful for the cow?
@@willmatthew4673 i have the same question
I wish there was more people like you, who care about their animals 💔 sending much love!
it’s crazy how big that cut was once you actually exposed it. it seemed like nothing from the surface
Yeah I was like eh that's not so ba- HOLY JESUS
@@laylaminrir LOL!!!
@@laylaminrir my reaction was the same.
Can't believe how well mannered your cattle are. I remember trying to tie a cows leg with my dad before so we could treat its mastitis - couldn't believe the power of its single leg, almost impossible to restain it.
In the cow’s defense mastitis can hurt like hell
I read it as Man Tities 😂
It's not that hard your mum was pretty easy
@@y0kian man
@@y0kian HAHAHAHAH
you can literally see the cow move when the relief hits. That cow knows what's up. That must have felt really good.
Time stamp ?

@Straight white Male dude chill wtf
@Straight white Male jesus
@Straight white Male top left corner, it's trembling. Idiot.
You are so kind towards the animals and the world. You sir are awesome!
It just looks unreal how the hoof is supposed to be pretty hard and yet the fluid could be squeezed out 😲
There is soft tissue underneath. You know how you have soft fleshy bits under your nails? Yeah it is like that.
@@ShiningDarknes oh but that hurts for us, what about them?
@@ant1crist0 So i discovered this channel yesterday. and i can't stop watching this now for some reason. but what i have been able to gather. the cows don't feel any pain from this. even if the areas get exposed. but it can feel pain if those exposed parts are handled roughly. and at that point the cow will likely flinch. so he will try and work around it.
@@ant1crist0 we actually do have a soft bit of nail like they do but it is not very large and assuming you never get your nail ripped off you will never see it. If you ever get a bad blood blister under your nail what they do is just drill a small hole directly over it and then apply pressure that is probably the closest most humans will ever get to this due to us not walking on our nails.
@@ShiningDarknes no human has ever had nails this thick.... Not the same
Why did i watch this whole thing? Can't lie, it's kind of gross but fascinating at the same time! I was wincing the whole time as if that was _my_ hoof! Hope the cow is feeling better now
Fr😂😂
Why you care its getting shot in a week anyway
LOL Same here!
@@oransjball lmao BEEF
It’s like trimming your fingernails
This video has an abundance of qualities: disgusting, satisfying, interesting, weird, and bubbly. hehe

Ehehe... Bobes
These poor cows literally have a "toothache in their heels" like ol" Dan Tucker in the song from Little House on the Prairie and here you are, Hoof Guy, bringing blessed relief to these beloved creatures.
I'm not a farmer but this guy knows what he's doing. I would compare his work to a dentist. It's not just our food it's an animal that provides a lot for us. Great job buddy, keep up the good work!
Being a dentist myself i can confirm
Sadly it is just our food
@@yungmentalproblems if the cow is treated like shit, it's meat will taste like shit
@@yungmentalproblems you aren't any more relavent than a cow
Yeah as angel said, sadly cows are just food, milk and leather. Wish it wasnt so but I'd say most people dont even have a conscious connection between beef and milk to cows, they just see food and drink.
I was a large animal veterinarian for the first 1.5 years of my career, almost 20 years ago, and yet whenever one of your videos pops up, I can smell everything. The dairy, the foot, and the abscess.
Well, these things are things that never leave you when you are still a veterinarian, or so I presume… after all, you still treat animals, even if you don’t treat cows.
And while I am thinking about it, I want to say something to you.
I know you never hear this enough… but thank you for what you do for us all. Veterinarians are unsung heroes and heroines of the modern world, fighting to keep our most faithful companions alive and happy, making sure their end is peaceful and dignified, and helping even the most mundane of pets continue to grace us with their beauty and companionship for years to come.
Thank you. You might not be treating a human… but Grandma’s little Pomeranian is just as important to her as any other family. For you to be willing to do this so long takes a lot of guts, a lot of resolve, and a lot of heart…
@@TheEmeraldMenOfficial Thanks. Yes, dogs and cats now, Emergency Clinic.
Did you go to college? I want to become one so bad but don’t want to do too much of college
@@anonymoustx2146 you definitely can't become a vet without going to college and then university, it's medical school and you have to go for a long time, so if you don't want to go to college then being a vet probably isn't the career for you.
@@Elli-kc2yh i love animals n would love to learn ab em it’s just I don’t wanna go through college and go into debt over college 😭😂
I literally grew up on a farm and never knew this could even happen to a cow's hoof. This man truly cares alot about the animals he works on! What an informative video!
Same! I wonder how long it takes for this injury to form. My mother would get them checked as soon as she noticed a lame cow and I think only once was there an infection and it was nothing like this.
My dad loves to eat the hoof! Oof! 😐
Me too
How can the man truly care when we all know this animal is being explored and incapacitated from living their life?
We all know it will die and be in someone's plate, how's that truly caring?
@@geirasES the females are dairy cows, which love being milked. At least they’re happy and healthy until death. And its not like he’s the one doing it. His job is to make cows comfortable and walk correctly. Chill
It’s weird, but I get a strange sense of satisfaction watching you repair & heal these hooves. 👏🏼😎
