Blue circles on the map:

Different colored Dogs:
While at the pound, pick a breed. You will have three choices for the dog's coloring *light, medium, and dark). If you do not see the color you like, tap "Back", then tap on the breed again until the color and/or gender that you want with the dog appears. It may take some time to actually get what you want.
Disc contest:
Get a Boxer if you want speed. Get a German Shepherd if you want it to jump high.
Dog or present?
When walking your dog, if he/she comes upon a ? mark, he/she will bark once, or twice. Most of the time, one bark means a present, two barks means another dog.
Easy way to find hidden presents
When going on a walk, watch the top screen. When the dog icon stops moving, there is a hidden present coming up shortly. Be cautious, however, as this is also true when garbage is coming up, or your pup simply stops by itself.
Easy way to prevent yourself from passing un-marked ?-Boxes on walks
Sometimes when you're on a walk, you'll notice a present go across the screen at seemingly random times, and there's a chance you won't get it because you weren't paying attention. To prevent this, simply watch the map on the upper screen.Whenever your dog stops moving on the map, it will either stop to go to the bathroom, or sniff at a spot it previously went to the bathroom at. However, sometimes the dog will not stop on the lower screen, which means that something that isn't marked on the map is about to appear. It will either be some garbage, or an unmarked ?-Box is about to appear.Basically, if the dog stops moving on the map, but is still moving on the touch-screen, get ready to tug at the dog's leash so that you can pick it up.
Eat A Lightbulb
When your dog performs a trick in the game a lightbulb will appear. Click and drag this lightbulb to your dog and he will eat it. You can also eat bones that appear above your dog as well.
Flip from back:
Teach your dog roll over and jump. Tell it to roll over then quickly have it jump. It should flip forward onto its legs, with something that resembles a Kung Fu-style move.
Get unlockable breeds easier.
Do Bark Mode with a dog in a breed that you don't have.Example: Do Bark Mode with a Shih Tzu and after you do Bark Mode with that dog, you will be able to buy the Shih Tzu breed at the kennel.NOTE: This only works the first time with each different version of the game. So you can do this trick one time with Labrador & Friends, Dachshund & Friends, and any other version of Nintendogs.
Getting money:
Go on a lot of walks, getting as many question marks as you can along the way. Then, go to the second hand store and sell all the items you do not want or your dog(s) do not like. Some items are less then a dollar, but the amount adds up if you keep doing this.
Gift or Another Dog
When you are on a walk and you come up to one of the [?] boxes, your dog should bark once or twice. If it barks once it's a gift. If twice it's another dog.
Hand stand:
Teach your dog to lie down and beg. While lying down, tell it to beg and your dog should do a handstand.
Jump Rope:
Get 300 owner points.
Linking:
When linking copies of Nintendogs to unlock new breeds, keep in mind two things. You can only link with another Nintendo DS system once (and unlock a new breed). The breed unlocked corresponds with your partner's current pet, and it must be a breed that you do not have in order for it to be unlocked.
Longer walks:
Mark out the path on your map, ending it at the house. If your last few steps ends at the house, wait 25 minutes, then your dog can go slighter further on the next walk. Note: Make sure to water your dog after each walk.

Walk without waiting 30 minutes!
To do this trick, make sure you have an Asscessory on you. Select which dog you want to walk with. While planning the route for the dog, go through as many[?] blocks as possible. Once you have done that, make your way to the park, then back to your house. When your dog starts the walk, when it gets to the park change the accessory it's wearing into something else. After the game finishes saving, turn off your Nintendo DS. When you reboot you will notice that you have obtained all the items you did in the walk, and you can walk again with the same dog without the wait. Do this for present abuse!
Walking your dog:
When walking your dog and it seems edgy, give the leash a little tug towards the way it is walking. The dog will start running. Also, if you want you can give it a tug while running upwards, it will do a jump.
