Don't buy your treats...
You all probably know this already, but this is for those who don't! Basically, do not buy your treats from the store. Walk your puppy on the pedometer, and if you don't want to walk around then just close the lid and sit and shake the Nintendo 3DS gently, and be careful not to accidently throw it across the room! For every 10 steps you take, you get a presant. From what I've found, from 10 to 1000 steps gets you treats, cat or dog. So don't waste money buying treats, when you can get them for free with a little wrist shaking! Anymore than 1000 steps I've found gets you items, just bits of plastic and the occasional leather shoe. I've never got more than 1500 because I'm a bit impatient, but hey i'll get there! As soon as you open the Nintendo it will tell you how many steps you took whilst the lid was closed. There should be a presant there, and your pup will pick it up and give it to you, like a normal gift. Then the step counter will go back to zero and you have the option to quit or begin again. Be careful if you want to get a high number of steps, because I got 1498 steps and opened it, and I was aiming for 1500+, and believe me, that's a pain in the butt! But anyway, hope I helped you out, I'm pretty new to this game and just thought I would help out the community with something I didn't know before
