Hi Everyone, Gina here! I wanted to share with you this toy that Gido and Mochi absolutely love. Like most dogs, Gido and Mochi’s play time is all the time..that means at night, too! They love playing outdoors so having light up toys makes them visible in the dark (which helps tremendously, especially if you’re the one having to retrieve it at times – like me!). Their light up toys are made by Nite Ize, known for their awesome L.E.D products.
 The light up frisbee in-flight and Mochi running after it. The light up frisbee is made of sturdy soft touch plastic material that is easy for your dog to grip and is bite durable. Gido and Mochi LOVE to bite and chew on their toys and because of its high quality material, the frisbee is still intact (surprisingly being that they chew on this all the time) with no breakage that you typically notice with cheaper frisbees.  The light up frisbee is bright!..and so is the Nite Iz Spotlit on Gido's collar. The light up frisbee, aka l.e.d. frisbee, is available in two colors: red or green. Isn’t the green pretty?  Light up frisbee in green. We think your dog will enjoy this toy just as much as Gido and Mochi so we’re offering you 10% off! Click here to go to our store, use coupon code: frisbeefun at check-out.

It fascinates me when a dog owner shares their story on how they chose their dog’s name. It’s a great topic for conversation! Our dog’s names are Gido and Mochi. Gido got his name by combining mine and my husband’s first name. His name has been pronounced Guido, Geydo, Guydo, Geedo. It’s correctly pronounced Gido as in Gi for Gina. The day we picked up Gido’s little brother (Gido and Mochi have the same dad so they are half brothers), my nephew made my favorite Japanese sweet snack – Mochi (which I absolutely love). So that’s how Mochi got his name. It suits him well because he’s puffy and fluffy and such a sweet lil boy!
I would love to hear your story. Tell us, how did you choose your dog’s name? We are giving away the Nite Iz Spotlit dog light to 3 lucky winners for sharing their story.  Nite Ize Spotlit clips on to your dog's collar and makes him visible at night up to 1,000 feet. Here’s how to enter: 1. Leave a blog comment by telling us…How did you choose your dog’s name? 2. Head over to our Facebook page (click on the “Like” button if you’re not yet a fan). Post your comment onto our Facebook page. Feel free to share a photo of your pooch, we love pics! 3. Please share our Facebook page with your friends! We’d appreciate it! : ) Giveaway ends on September 27 at 11:59pm. Good luck!

When you’re in the mood to bake, here’s an easy recipe for homemade dog treats that your dogs will love! Gido and Mochi are very picky when it comes to their treats and they absolutely love these! The recipe is called Liver Brownies and it’s from The Healthy Dog Cookbook (you can get this recipe book at any book store, I got mine from Borders). Liver Treats
Prep Time: 10 minutes Bake Time: 20 minutes
 Ingredients Ingredients: 1 lb. beef liver 3 tbsp. peanut butter 2 cups whole wheat flour 1 cup barley 1. Cook the barley according to the package instructions (which is basically cooking it like you would rice). 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 3. Puree the liver in a food processor and mix in the peanut butter.  Puree liver. 4. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and barley.  Mix together flour and cooked barley. 5. Add the liver and peanut butter mixture. 6. Pour the mixture into a 9×9 inch pan and bake for 20 minutes.  I used a cookie sheet and made these brownies into bone-shaped treats. 7. Let cool and cut into small pieces. Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Enjoy!  Gido and Mochi enjoying their liver treats.
