I like the longer video. On the shorter one I’m just getting interested and then it’s over. Love your work and your voiceover.

I like how you explain what you are doing and why. You have qualities of a good teacher.

My grandfather was a blacksmith. He died before I was born. Every winter he go to the lumber camps. It was all horse power. He got to stay warm 😂 and coffee when he wanted. My mom said he would take 10 cents with him, but always came home with it. Gotta watch the $ with 10 kids. My grandmother took care of the barn then.

I enjoy your explanation in your videos. I don’t even have a horse

Thank you for the longer video. It took me back to my younger days watching my Dad working as a farrier. You do pretty much the same way my Dad worked. He loved it when he was able to fix a problem when some of the other farriers gave up. Great seeing someone who still has the knowledge to do a great job.

I like the longer videos. Thank you.

I severed a tendon in my hand and it has never been the same and never will. The doctor said "I can fix it and then you would hate me for the rest of your life" meaning he would make it so it would not turn or twist. Didn't do it. So you are incredibly lucky to be using it.

If his "fix" involves not being able to move fairly well, then it's not really a fix at all.

I like the longer format, especially when you explain what you are doing.

Longer format no doubt, great job !

Yes I agree

I really enjoy the longer videos, all the ways you could get hurt shoeing horses and you get attacked by a coconut! 😮

Right?!😅

I love the longer versions best!

I love the longer version videos as it can give you a different perspective between the hooves. I am always so amazed in the work that farriers do, and the compassion that they have for these beautiful animals. You have a relaxed and easy to listen to voice and very informative in simple terminology for some of us that have little to no knowledge of this craft. Sharing your expertise, different methods and techniques allows one to understand all that goes into farriering. Thank you... I look forward to more of these longer videos.

Hi Caleb, definitely the longer version! Truly enjoy your discussions. That's a nice looking horse and pleased the owners are getting the care needed. This next is trivial but it irksome to me. I always cleaned out my horses hooves prior to my farriers visit. I haven't seen one owner do that for you yet. Just feel it's rude. Enjoy your day!

I def agree he has the way to make this a million sub channel! I will be looking for any upload Ill tell you that.

I like the longer video. Thank you.

I did enjoy your work you really do care. Thank you.

Longer format! Interesting to see that a horse’s feet aren’t all identical.

I like the longer videos. The detailed explanation helps me to understand what you are seeing and how you are fixing it.

I like the longer format. 😊

Love the longer format. Please keep doing it.

Truly enjoy the hoof per video. Awesome work

Good video! I really like the longer ones

I love the longer format and would even love to see all four hooves!

Great job I love the longer videos like these can you do more like these have great day😊

More longer videos please 😊

Nice job you do nice work I like watching your videos thanks for sharing

Thanks so much! 😊

This was so fascinating! You are correct - never would a non- horseman realize the minutae of shoeing a horse! Your knowledge and technique are impressive. All the best in your future endeavors!

Love the longer format!!

Love the longer format. There is nothing like watching a good farrier at work.

I luv the longer cuts, much more informative

The longer format is fine. I enjoy viewing your videos, you explain what and why you are moving in one direction or another with shoeing a horse. Some horses you have absolutely no problems with others you have to assess the problem and adjust to the horse. Mahalo and Aloha!!!!!

Good video. Longer is better in my opinion. That fact that you teach and share relevant information and actually talk is important . Thank you!

I always wondered how a horse would end up playing and how you shoot a horse. I know a lot about horses I just didn’t know that very interesting video. I appreciate it and I like the longer version to everybody’s right you have a very nice voice.😊

This is the first time that I have watched one of your videos. I really enjoyed the way that you explain a lot more than most farriers do. Thank you for the really good information!

I was wondering what happened as you answered the injury to you inner wrist. Thank you. I like the longer videos.

I start ferrier course at Kwantlen polytechnic in British Columbia 1st class is oct 23/23. I am glad I bumped onto your channel.

I love this more longform content! Especially the amount of time it gives for you to explain things and elaborate on some points, talk about what possibilities/methods you considered at the time and how you think about them afterwards, etc. You have such a calm way of talking and your love for your work really shows. I also enjoy the little anecdotes and the thoughts/mindset about work and life that you share. Watching these videos feels so calming and grounding in a sea of empty, flashy, loud clickbait content - AND I feel like I'm learning things from a profession I would never have encountered. Thank you for sharing your work and the care and effort you take to make these videos. Love from Berlin, Germany!

I like the longer video and extensive explanations.

I love the longer format with your skilled work and calm voice-overs. It's easy viewing and listening and makes for learning in an area where I have no previous knowledge. Thank you, Caleb.

I really enjoy you videos. The longer the better. I’m learning a lot of new info about your line of work. Thank’s for explaining it.

i like the longer format! thanks for showing the horse walking, he really does look better after everything yall did for him

So glad the diagnosis was made & another shoe applied. Really enjoy the narrative. You are so kind. So glad you enjoy the work you are trained to do. God bless you.

First time watching your work. Impressed with your honesty, humbleness and skill. I'm 65, have long yearned to be able to shoe my own horse (Trotter) .... Sadly there's no where in my country (NZ) where I can learn to do so and nobody will give me the chance to do so. Hence why I love farrier videos and admire the skill, workmanship and horsemanship. Thank you man. 😊

having a major injury does make you appreciate working. as a prematurely retired guy, it sucks. I like the long form..and with the extra of checking the horse for the signs of injury.

I am a lady from Quebec, Canada. I do not know (or did not know) nothing about this field. But since I am a clinical nurse I can appreciate your excellent work and intelligence in your « réflexion » …your thinking! 👌

Your making shoes looks like an art form.

Cudos on the use of the stand! Your back will thank you as the years go by.

Thank you Caleb! I really enjoyed the longer video and how you explain the process of your trade. I am glad you were able to help this horse with giving him some comfort by working with the vet and a great shoeing job. It’s too bad that 2raw2ride dude didn’t use you for his farrier work. The horror those two horses have been put though is a shame, even though the ride is done, those horses are somewhere in Montana getting dumped as if they were expendable garbage. 😢

Pretty cool how this horse picked his foot up for you without being asked.

I enjoy watching your work.Very calming and helps me to relax.😊

Awesome to see you Enjoying what you do for a living .The horse even looks Satisfied

I'm new to your page and I've really enjoyed it. I never knew how much goes into shoeing a horse and when they are in pain. You really care about their comfort!!! 😘💕

With nails, TRADEMARK TO THE INSIDE!! Isn't that correct, Caleb? I love seeing both feet being done. It makes a big difference when you show the before and after. Best Regards from your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn. 💖 🇨🇦🇺🇸

That's correct the logo or mark goes to the inside I do check though as I've seen a couple nails that were defective

There is so much to love about your videos: they are pedagogical, clear, methodical, and I enjoy the problem-solving approach to difficult cases. And in this one in particular, your modesty. Keep up the good work.

Thank you for the kind words they mean a lot

Interesting, good farrier ship.

Definitely like the longer videos. Love the fact that you don't use all the power tools a lot of these younger farriers use lately.

I’m not a farrier but grew up around horses. I am a musician, composer, arranger, self producer. I wholly agree with your point about being humble. The older I get the more I realize how much I don’t know. I find it difficult listening to myself on recordings when I’m mixing and mastering.

Listening to myself is the worst doing voice overs and talking to the camera is the hardest and my least favorite part

Nice horse, sad about the arthritis, love your explanations as you work with the hoof, I’ve learned a lot, love seeing the horse walk after your done, thank you.

Interesting and informative in a professional manner as usual. Keep up with the longer version.

Thank you for your calm and clear explanations. I know nothing about horses but I know I love horses and as a retired nurse I find your videos fascinating. Had to switch from watching the cow videos because they don’t wash the hooves off so there’s manure all over the wounds and they don’t irrigate an open draining abscess and other stuff like that. This drives me absolutely crazy because of my training as a nurse! LOL! Working on horses seems much cleaner and that appeals to my nursing sensibilities. Hard to teach an old dog new tricks, I guess! 😂 Anyway, for me, the longer the videos the better. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and expertise and for your gentle manner with the horses.

I like the longer videos they give me time to watch how you work. It's very interesting to hear you explain all the things you do.

I like the longer format. I’m hoping to become a farrier and your info and opinion is appreciated and helpful

I love the longer videos, so so interesting, such a beautiful horse, he looked alot happier, you have to be careful with those coconuts, you also have a nice bruise on your thumb nail, Hamner, I'm guessing, excellent job as always Caleb, thank you very much for posting, and take care.👍💙🐎

I’ve watched a lot of farrier videos and well, have had a lot of farriers in my time, but I really like the way you do your videos and your technique. I wish you were a farrier in AZ!

Nice looking shoe. Thank you for sharing.🐴

Currently sidelined for six weeks with a broken ankle myself. Can’t imagine having to take six months off! That must have been rough!

Hi Caleb, I'm a fan of the longer videos. I find it very relaxing to view after a long day, listening to you explain your craft. I find it really interesting and I've learned a lot watching you!

Iove your patience, you file by hand just like my shoer I've had for 35 plus years, love it. Boy do I miss him. His patience and old school ways, just like you, it's inspiring that you have the old ways or techniques. 😊🤠🎉

Thanks, Caleb‼️👩🏻‍🦳👍👍👍Nice job. Happy horse!

I do like the longer format. You answered a few questions I was going to ask, one of which was about your anvil. I figured the base was aluminum because of weight. As far as noise goes I guess after awhile the ringing would get old though. Nice work, thank you for the video.

Yes, continue with the longer videos if you can. It's very relaxing!!❤

Yes, Calib, like many others, I, too, love the longer videos 👍🏻 Im hlad to hear, that your hand is good again, but take care of yourself, because in the end, nobody will thank you for it, if you work too much😢 Great workman ship and I love your calm voice, while explaining it all to someone like me, who has no idea about this amazing profession, but is eager to watch and learn 🙏✅😍 Sending best wishes from Switzerland 🙋🏻‍♀️🥰

The longer videos are nice.

From what I’ve seen so far, the longer format is awesome! Please do more of them

Awesome job! I love the longer video and seeing two hooves. I watch these videos because they help me relax before I take a nap or go to bed. And you do a great job explaining what you’re doing. I have a desk job but I love watching the work you do! Such a cool career! Cheers to your talent and willingness to keep learning!

You are an artist. You really care and take care of the horses. Awesome job.

A happy horse with a nice pedicure. I love it when a horse is treated so well. Thank you.

Thank you for telling your story!

Nice! I'm a new subscriber but both formats👍👍👍🐴🐴🐴

I haven’t seen any farriers use electronic tools. I don’t think it would even make sense, it’s completely different if you watch horse shoeing and hoof trimming on cows.

Very informative video, explained things that a “non” farrier can understand 😊

Definitely like the longer videos I’d like to see all 4 hoofs being shoed

Longer vlog for me too! Your explanations are awesome & very interesting! I had no idea how complicated farrier skills are prior to watching your vlogs - especially with drafts!

Idk, l find the longer length of the video calming, but then this is me .. :)

Awesome job! Love that you are so thorough. Amazing. 👍

I like the longer video and the fact that you explain so much. I’m a retired nurse and I do agree with fact that you must know your anatomy of the horses foot and body for that matter.

Been watching cattle hoof trimming for a while now, and just started getting into horse hoof trimming videos. Thank you so mucn for your awesome content, and also the simple yet detailed explanations for newbies like me!

Watching these hsoeing videos is like watching magic! Fabulous job!

This is fascinating. Thank you.

I like the longer video's 😊 Being humble allows you to continue to learn and improve.😊

I belive this is the first video of yours I've seen, and I really love your calm voice and detailed voice-over. I subscribed because I really enjoy learning about what is being done and why when I'm watching videos, and this was excellent.

I really enjoy watching your work with both sides. I also enjoy your commentary on the reasons why you do things and your explanation of the terminology. My grandfather was a Farrier back in the 1920s to the 1970s. 😊😊

I really like the way you shoe. You fitting the shoe to the hoof. And not rasping the toe down to the shoe. You also ring the nails instead of nipping them. I shod horses for 30 yrs. You do a beautiful job !

Like the long 2 foot video, love your knowledge that you give while you're working! Lynn 76 in Missouri. Thanks 😊

It is wonderful to have good Vets work with good ferriers. Both have wisdom, expertise, and skill that should be used to help the horse. It is the animal that needs you both to argue it out and come up with what's best for him. We all need humilty

I love how informative your videos are

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooove the longer format this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fascinaating!

I like your commentary in your videos. Very informative and relaxing 😌

I like your longer video. Ouch on the tendon story! Really like your explanations, too. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🥰

Learning a lot love your videos and your O.C. Cheers
