I heard there’s a program on the Discovery Channel called “Dirty Jobs,” and on one episode the profession highlighted was hoof trimmer.

It might be a dirty job, but hoof trimming is very important on the dairy farm. It needs to be done right twice a year, by a well trained, professional hoof trimmer.
