What was it like grooming for Anky van Grunsven? Let's chat with Tiffany Tyler and find out. In this pilot episode of HorseGirlTV we meet former groom of Anky van Grunsen, Tiffany Tyler and learn some of Anky's grooming secrets! We catch up with Tiffany in Ashland, Oregon where she continues to develop her career in competitive equestrian sports. Tiffany plans to show this season and aspires to compete on an international level in the CDIs.

We get lots of questions about how we do things around the studio and stable at HorseGirlTV and do our best to answer as many as possible via the webisodes. We have a pretty neat watering solution for arenas and pastures called the Rapid Rain. It's a simple to use, low maintenance device! Rapid Rain is manufactured in the USA which is always a big plus when we're researching products at HorseGirlTV! The Rapid Rain allows easy watering by automatically rewinding the hose and sprinkler, and shutting off when you choose. No need to move sprinklers around to different areas, or maintain a complicated and costly permanent system. Whether it's watering your yard, dust control for your horse arena, or anywhere else you need a portable watering system, there's a Rapid Rain model that does the work for you! It's definitely on our list of cool tools!

It seems that this year is fast becoming a remembering the earth year at HorseGirlTV. With the farm studio in full swing on the East Coast, implementing and testing quality environmentally friendly products has never been easier. We modified our stable bedding solution about a year ago and have never been happier with the ease of use, decreased waste, horse happiness, quality of product and just general cool factor it's provided. With that, we want to share with you just how wonderful the boutique bedding, Equine Pine is.

We ask Dutch Rider and pupil of Anky van Grunsven what her dreams for the future are. Listen to what Tawny has to say!

Joyce Heuitink is an international rider and trainer working with Wup, a well-known Dutch stallion of Holland. HorseGirlTV caught up with Joyce in The Netherlands to ask what inspired her to work with a breeding stallion training in the art of dressage.

Many viewers have emailed in asking about what Angelea uses around the farm for feed, forage and supplements so we decided to cover the basics of supplements. The preferred supplement around the HorseGirlTV farm is Flex+Max because it contains everything we could want in a supplement in it so there's one bucket, one scoop and it's definitely a time saver too. The plus side is being able to feed it to the dogs as well and they love the taste as much as the horses. We use the pellets but you can get it in a powder as well. For more info on Flex+Max you can check out Absorbine's website.

Many of the HorseGirlTV fans have emailed about the manure fork we've used in previous webisodes so we're opting simply to show you all how it works. It's a pretty neat fork that definitely saves on the back breaking work of stall picking. At the farm here in NC, we've been using it for over a year now and enjoy it very much. The innovator that created this fork, Joseph Berto, is located in Oregon and passionate about creating time saving and technologically advanced farm related products. We think the folks handling the Gulf Coast oil spill need to connect with him about his tarball fork to help with the clean up efforts!
