I’m used to scheduling hoof care for horses...I never thought of the importance of hoof care for cows but I imagine standing in a shed or stall conditions is a lot different than open farm grounds like I’m used to! Great video! Keep on keeping on and God Bless ❤️!
Best wishes from the UK. If hoof trimming floats your boat go check out The Hoof GP. Guy from Scotland does it full time, strangely satisfying watching his daily routine.
I’ve been watching him for about four months now. I never saw r knew u could trim cattle 🐄 hoofs I’ve never seen it done except only on horses and donkeys. It looks awesome
Yhon. Thank You very much for the walk along videos of hoof trimming. As always great to watch your video's. Please Take Care of your self Plus Be Very Care Full around all Farm Equipment Alway's.
Great Video Jan. Nice to see how routined the hooftrimmer is, how quick and accurate he trims. When I'm trimmin my 60 heads i need 1,5 days, he does up to 100 a day what is absolutely impressive. Hope your ladies will enjoy the new manicure. Greets from Germany
the care and attention for every cows' issues is outstanding!!! and--although I am not squeamish about blood/injections,,, the warning you give for those who are, is just outright respectable!!!!!
Howdy from Florida. I've never seen trimming done like that before; most were done like 'The Hoof Guy GP' vids that Graeme Beck mentioned. Great videos, Mate! Love watching them ... takes me back to when I was a kid.
Very soon I wil b migrate to your province ...wil come there to visit your farm...just luv the animals...everythin about your farm excites me so.much that I canot wait anymore
That’s interesting that cows only need to be done every 6 months but probably a lot of that is from walking on cement. I have to have my horses trimmed every 6 - 8 weeks. You know what you’re doing however. There’s NO doubt about that ! LOVE your hat ! “I FARM, YOU EAT !” GREAT ! Thanks so much for all you do even though I doubt here in north Alabama USA, I’ve not had a sip of any of your milk but it takes folks like you to keep the world going !
That’s an absolutely ridiculous thing to say. I grew up around farmers and ranchers...there was only one person that I’ve ever know to be a jerk to his animals...but he was a jerk to everyone so no surprise there. But to make a statement like this dairy farmer is the exception to caring about his animals, is beyond insulting to the thousands of farmers who give their animals the best of care. Remember, you’re only seeing a small fraction of the many, many people who are involved in this profession.
Hoof gp does the Dutch Method and balances the hoof, one sore hoof looked like it had duct tape on it. Might be weather related to keep the medicine on
I do follow about 4 hooftrimmers all over the World, I already did follow farriers (horse hoof trimmers ) because I am a horse girl (but not the English way but Western) so, that way I think I bumped into the World of the cow trimming days 😁 and when it all was still small on YT it were fun days with those guys honestly 😁 And yeah, leaving the equipment indoors is Very great because blowing lines or having frozen parts is such a huge bummer..
Another video where I learned something. Thanks Jan! You should really get those salt blocks off the cement; your cement will eventually start to degrade. We always put our salt blocks on old car rims.
I have been enjoying your vids for some time. You do a great job editing and narrating and explaining. Would you consider doing a milking video in real time, for say 12 or 24 cows so I can get a feel for how long the process takes. Thanks for your hard work.
Who else was triggered by him not getting the manure strip closest to the cow beds when he was scraping ? like omg please get it even if you have to manually do it .. GET IT !!!!!!!! lol
I wonder how many pounds of cow poop is are on the bobcat lol. I always like to see Dr. Jan at work, he is so competent. I get a pedicure every six weeks but they do not put me in a contraption like that and I hope the cow feels as good as I do after it is done. It is always super to see how well you treat your cows. Tthanks for a great video.
Hoof Trimming on a Canadian Dairy Glad we didnt see anyone get hurt as these cattle are in the range of 1500 lbs and you can't pussy foot around, as they could crush or seriously injure an operator/helper. Hence the need for strong and safe equipment operated by skillful workers. When we trimmed hoofs back in the 60'-70's that was downright dangerous, as ropes/chains to hold up the hoof and then huge snippers and curved hand drawn knives were used.
@J Hemphill I’m aware of that. I’m Canadian and have been to Saskatchewan. The Hoof GP is from Scotland. I think it would be cool if he came to Canada, and what better place to go to see well looked after Canadian cows - Saskdutchkid’s farm.
They have 2 advantages: 1) their cows are on flat, level concrete -- no rocky, stony, uneven pasture land -- so the hoof wear tends to be more even. 2) their cows are in the milking parlor twice a day, with their hooves almost at eye level. So they are likely to notice a hoof problem then. Plus walking to and from the parlor, any lameness would be quickly noticed by them, and they could call the hoof specialist in for a problem.
No I had it wrong you Dutch land kid and 10th generation dairy have beautiful dairies I enjoy very much if money was no object I would have a dairy in Fresno California
Does it affect the cows to have their babies taken away so soon? Does the hoof trimmer work in snow storms? I know you can get used to cold weather for blood thins out but so so cold ! Does your family have a house on the farm or is it elsewhere? What's the closest city you live by
I can not speak for the cow but in my experience the cow is affected for 5 minutes and then she will resume to normal after taking the calf, altough a lot of cows don't seem affected at all. I don't think hoof trimmers work outside in snow storms. I think the nearest big city is Saskatoon.
Hey Jan, at the 9:58 mark on your video, I noticed a cow exit the hood trimming chute with what looks like some grey duct tape on its rear hoof. Just curious, did the trimmer go too deep? Great videos. 👍
The cow would have had a sore like digital dermatitis (hairy heel wart). Because the cow is outside duct tape is used instead or vet wrap so it falls off. Vet wrap can cut into the foot if it isn't taken off or doesn't fall off.
Is there a possibility their stomachs could get twisted when they are put on their sides ?? The hookup in the UK, has a neat set up that doesn't flip the cows like that, it bends the cows legs at the knees.
Your calmness around your cattle shows respect for your animals as well as recognizing the importance for taking care of the ladies!
Wish all comments were like yours. A lot of misinformed people now days
Yeah exactly. 💜💙💜💙💜🙏🙏
I love how curious cows are. They always spot that camera too.
Great video with amazing shots and perspectives !
✌💛🇨🇦

I love your barn. It gives my OCD happiness. And the care of your cows is phenomenal ❤

What´s the Hoof GP´s first name Graeme? ;o)
You beat me to it. Gram is a great trimmer . looks like different places.different ways
I was gonna suggest the Hoof GP too! Love his style :)
If you guys knows Hoof GP, then you should also check Nate the Hoof Guy, he is awesome
I’ve been watching him for about four months now. I never saw r knew u could trim cattle 🐄 hoofs I’ve never seen it done except only on horses and donkeys. It looks awesome
Watching your videos never gets old, neighbor. Please keep up the great dairying!

Your work ethic is amazing. Your a fine example for a farmer. Thanks for sharing.
A dairy farmer who doesn't talk with his cows is crazy
First time I saw the hoof trimmer in action! I knew it was done but I just never saw how it was done! Thanks for showing the operation! 👍
WOW those cows a really going to town on the salt licks
His dad wasnt to far off when he said they only last about a week for real
that bed buster makes the bed's nice and fluffy and levels them out. nice piece of equipment.

I learn so much from watching this channel, thanks!
Glad to see the cows are licking away at those salt blocks im sure the cows are very thankful for the hoof trim
These cows are the cleanest I have ever seen!! Great job ! ❤️❤️
It’s so fascinating watching people doing there jobs
Bravo Kid! I wish other farms cared about their herd as good as you guys do! My hat is off to you all up there in Canada! Awesome Farm.

OMG,😂😂 I am dying laughing at that cow. I don't think she is too happy.
A closeup of the trimming with a before and after would be nice.
Go to Hoof GP
Hoof gp does the Dutch Method and balances the hoof, one sore hoof looked like it had duct tape on it. Might be weather related to keep the medicine on
Great job showing us all these aspects of your farming 🚜 👏 👍
Very cool operation. We could certainly use them for our beef cattle.
Enjoyed different angle of camera...as always thank you to your hard work and sweet ladies!!! :))
That poonami when you are scraping gets me every time. I feel like you show that angle just to mess with us🤣🤢
Always look forward to your posts. Thx from Indiana.
I love your editing. Nice Job!!
I do follow about 4 hooftrimmers all over the World, I already did follow farriers (horse hoof trimmers ) because I am a horse girl (but not the English way but Western) so, that way I think I bumped into the World of the cow trimming days 😁 and when it all was still small on YT it were fun days with those guys honestly 😁
And yeah, leaving the equipment indoors is Very great because blowing lines or having frozen parts is such a huge bummer..
I loved watching the hoof trimming! Those salt licks are sure popular with the ladies! 🐄❤
Hi Jan. Heard you got hit with some snow. Keep it😜. I see the salt blocks are being used a lot. Happy ladies.
I love watching your videos. Thanks
Wow that trimmer does it different. I watch 4 different hoof trimmers and I’ve never seen a rig like his
Another video where I learned something. Thanks Jan! You should really get those salt blocks off the cement; your cement will eventually start to degrade. We always put our salt blocks on old car rims.
The cow "foot wash" is great!
My sisters always talk & sing to the ladies. They're all just big pets.
As close to the spa as it gets in Sask! Blessings
Man such a nice clean farm good work
We hoof trimmed yesterday! Like the video.
We are hoof trimming Thursday!
Did on Monday
I have been enjoying your vids for some time. You do a great job editing and narrating and explaining. Would you consider doing a milking video in real time, for say 12 or 24 cows so I can get a feel for how long the process takes. Thanks for your hard work.
Cool hat, "I Farm, You Eat".
I always enjoy your videos! You have some of the most beautiful cows!! Much love! Kristin from Oklahoma, USA 💖💖💖
Never saw hoof trimming like this. Looks pretty funny and weird at the same time.
Thanks Jan.
Who else was triggered by him not getting the manure strip closest to the cow beds when he was scraping ? like omg please get it even if you have to manually do it .. GET IT !!!!!!!! lol
Me it drives me round the bend
Me too!

It’s funny today we also had the hoof trimmer out on our dairy farm in Denmark🇩🇰
Finally new video! Where ya been Jan? I missed your updates and videos!
That hoof trimmer was for sure no hoof gp from youtube. That guys skills are insane when it comes to trimming and fixing hoofs.
Those crushes really speed the job up. Brilliant video! 💪🏴
Your cows look great
I've had to put calcium in a cow bfore too. It makes ur arm sore holding the bottle up high
"bfore"
🙄
@deafghost1964 what's the problem 😕
Short and informative. Manicures and IV's. Very cool!
videos are the best
Beautiful barns 👍
Really cool video, the content was pretty good.
Thanks for sharing and have a nice safe day!!

Maybe when lockdown is over Hoof GP can come to Canada and meet some well bread Canadian cows.

you need to watch The Hoof GP ... love his shoot it doesn't tip the cows up on their side.
You have good hooves for a hoof trimmmer to be out only every 6 months! We got advised to check and trim every 6 weeks!
They have 2 advantages:
1) their cows are on flat, level concrete -- no rocky, stony, uneven pasture land -- so the hoof wear tends to be more even.
2) their cows are in the milking parlor twice a day, with their hooves almost at eye level. So they are likely to notice a hoof problem then. Plus walking to and from the parlor, any lameness would be quickly noticed by them, and they could call the hoof specialist in for a problem.
Keep them girls happy and healthy!!!!!!!!
Skid loader needs another wash soon
great video.
Sometimes cows can be so funny and sometimes test your nerves
Got to take care of the ladies !
Another great video
That calcium works some good , cow can look like crap put a couple bottles into them and they are good to go in ten minutes lol,
Cows deserves a massage after they trimmed their hoofs 🤣
No I had it wrong you Dutch land kid and 10th generation dairy have beautiful dairies I enjoy very much if money was no object I would have a dairy in Fresno California
Good educational video again could you comment on how many times a year do you give your cattle salt blocks I seen in this video
Hi love the videos keep the hard work up
Love your videos.
I always thought you gave cows salt so they would drink more and produce more milk
You guys go watch Jan's latest video on TikTok, it's hilarious! @SaskDutchKid
We have a beef Cattle farm and they are outside most of the year and they don’t need their hooves trimmed
If a beef cow needs its hooves trimmed it needs to be turned into 🥩 and 🍔.
Been worried missing videos. Everyone ok
What is the price per liter right now in Canada?
God job i Like the vidéo from Algérie 🇩🇿
Looks like the girls liked the salt licks. did you give them to the dry cows also?
Salon day at the farm pedicure,s for all 👍
When your scraping you don't get the very edge near there beds do you go and scrap that by hand ?
Great videos KID !!!!
Does it affect the cows to have their babies taken away so soon? Does the hoof trimmer work in snow storms? I know you can get used to cold weather for blood thins out but so so cold ! Does your family have a house on the farm or is it elsewhere? What's the closest city you live by

Did it take you awhile to get used to using a needle on the cows? You have probably been doing it for a long time.
Nice video
Since covid I haven't been able to get my feet done. Maybe he could come trim mine. 🤔🤣😂
Cute baby 🐄
Hey Jan, at the 9:58 mark on your video, I noticed a cow exit the hood trimming chute with what looks like some grey duct tape on its rear hoof. Just curious, did the trimmer go too deep?
Great videos. 👍
The cow would have had a sore like digital dermatitis (hairy heel wart). Because the cow is outside duct tape is used instead or vet wrap so it falls off. Vet wrap can cut into the foot if it isn't taken off or doesn't fall off.
if that cows foot was hurt it should have received a block like what the hoof GP does, to take the weight off
Is there a possibility their stomachs could get twisted when they are put on their sides ??
The hookup in the UK, has a neat set up that doesn't flip the cows like that, it bends the cows legs at the knees.
