These guys are a breed apart.

The Professional Bull Riders tour is coming to Nassau County this week — and the 1,600-pound, bovine stars of the show will be getting treatment worthy of any top professional athlete, including deep tissue rubdowns, fine food and detailed hoof grooming, organizers say.

“They’re athletes as well, and so we treat them as such with regular veterinary care, hoof trimming and then, believe it or not, chiropractic work,” Professional Bull Riders stock contractor Justin Cornwall told The Post.

The bull riding tour will ride in to the UBS Arena starting Thursday night, as the local team, the New York Mavericks, will host their first home event for the rest of the league.

And organizers said that the brash bovines who will be ridden during the even will enjoy the lap of luxury during the event.

“When they see you hooking up the trailer, they start coming up to get in line. They know their job and they enjoy it,” he added of the nearly 120 VIP bovines brought to Elmont.

Like a football player may need a rubdown after tearing it up on the field, the bulls are subject to special MagnaWave stimulation — a specialized electronic massage device applied over their body to work their muscles and promote blood flow, he explained.

And, like any human pro athlete, the bulls need to watch what they eat.

“We want lean hard muscle. So their diet is different from that of normal cattle,” added Cornwall, who said that the bulls are also regularly worked out to keep fit as well.

When it comes to a premier opportunity like the PBR, just like the riders, these four-legged beasts need to be born for this.

“Anybody can play on the high school football team or basketball team, very few make it to college, and even fewer make it to the pros,” said Cornwall, who added it is the same for bulls, like his 2,000-pounder, aptly known as “The Undertaker.”

“This is the elite. This is the top of the top.”

Cornwall added that when bulls are loaded onto the trailer from their farms, it’s not uncommon to see one that wasn’t selected to sprint toward the fence trying to chase the vehicle down.

Those who make the cut are hardly seeing red on their downtime either, according to Mavericks coach Kody Lostroh.

“They relax. You see them back here pretty much just chilling and enjoying life. You can tell there’s not a lot of stress on them,” Lostroh said from their temporary housing area — a rather naturally scented, dirt-filled section of parking deeply far from the arena.

“There’s no need to be wound up all the time.”

Just like how people who love what they do never work a day in their lives, the same is said for the star attractions as well, apparently.

“If they’re getting ridden and they just keep bucking harder and harder, you know they really enjoy what they’re doing,” said Cornwall.

Animal right groups, however, don’t believe the cattle are loving being part of the show as much as the cowboys say they are.

“Bulls are prey animals. They don’t want a predator on their back,” said John Di Leonardo, executive director of animal group Humane Long Island, which opposes the PBR’s contests.

“They don’t want to be tracked from city to city, to be in front of a crowd and to have a predator riding on their back,” added Di Leonardo, who has previously rescued bulls on LI.

He is also critical of the use of a rope called a flank strap, which goes around a bull’s waist high to help its rider.

In New York City, a bill has been proposed to ban flank straps.

However, Cornwall staunchly said the situation with PBR and its animals is much more merciful.

“We wouldn’t do anything to injure or hurt these bulls,” he said. “If I’ve got to do [harmful things] to try and make them buck, they’re not going to work for me. They’ve got to want to do it.”

Great riding bulls also command the big bucks like human athletes, as they can cost up to $250,000, said the contractor.

They are also genetically selected to produce generations of outstanding offspring, like that of horses.

Lostroh added that “there’s a lot of personality” as well.

“There’s some here that are young and still pretty fiery and want to run people over,” he said.

“And then you’ve got some that really just want to buck a guy off, go back, get scratched, and eat dinner and relax — I can relate to that one.”

Sometimes, they even show a good boy mentality like that of man’s best friend in need of some rubs.

“After the buck a guy, they can be like, ‘hey! I did a good job, right? Let’s get some loving now,” added Lostroh.

Mavericks rider Mason Taylor, who owns just short of three dozen bulls, said, “With some bulls, their personalities do create a bond.”

“It’s really neat when you do see a bull that can recognize you.”
