Heill Hovhelse

Heill Hovhelse is a hoof-care business founded by Sigurd Heill, serving horses in several locations across Eastern Norway. The business offers shoeing and barefoot trimming, with an emphasis on hoof function, soundness and the horse’s overall wellbeing. Its approach recognizes that hoof condition can reflect broader health concerns and may help identify changes that need attention.

Sigurd has a varied background with horses, including ten years as a horse owner and experience in stable work, starting and training horses, rehabilitation, and veterinary assistance for horses and small animals. He began shoeing other people’s horses in 2024 and established the business as demand grew.

Each visit is documented in a journal, with photographs used to record hoof condition and track development over time. This gives owners and others involved in a horse’s care a clearer overview of work completed and future plans. Sigurd allows time for each horse and adapts his work to its needs and limitations, aiming to make trimming or shoeing as calm and comfortable as possible while maintaining safety.
