Homestead Helpers Specialized Hoof Care & Trimming

Because we know...
How much they mean to you...
In an industry largely centered around equine and bovine hoof care, small ruminants are often overlooked or worse, trimmed improperly. Sheep and goats have unique hoof structure, growth patterns, and handling needs that require a specialized approach.
​
Our services are designed specifically for small ruminants, providing efficient, low-stress care that supports soundness, health, and productivity. We are proud to fill this gap with knowledgeable, professional hoof care tailored to sheep and goat operations.
​
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, short on time, or physically unable to keep up with routine trimming, we’re here to step in with dependable, long-term care you can trust.
From " Yuck"
To "Yes!"

​

From a few weeks growth to years worth, we are ready to help your animal feel its very best!​

-
Careful removal of excessive overgrowth
-
Evaluation of hoof wall integrity and sole condition

​Follow-Up Care
​
Some cases involving excessive overgrowth often require shorter interval visits to gradually return the hoof to healthy standards.
​
Important Note
Severely overgrown hooves may require multiple restoration visits before the animal can transition to a standard maintenance program such as Happy Hooves Level.
​
Fees
$75 farm visit fee
$30 + per animal depending on severity of condition.
Additional mileage fees may apply
​
If you were a former Happy Hoof Member and suspended your maintenance services for whatever reason, you will start here upon rescheduling if outside the 8 week window, unless otherwise noted.
Even a few extra weeks worth of growth adds extra time and work to return hooves to a healthy state. It is very important to stay on schedule.
