Removed Breeds
German press kit, February 2005
Although the game unsurprisingly features a lot of different dog breeds and variations, some didn’t make the final cut. They all use the early Beagle breed files as a placeholder.
Papillon and Maltese
Papillon modded into the kennel.
The developers left two more toy breeds in the files, Papillon (パピヨン) and Maltese (マルチーズ). They are completely unfinished, hence they use the aforementioned placeholder files. Both breeds have data for two variants. Like in real life, they need long hair shampoo. Their file identifiers are pap and mcz, respectively and they occupy the IDs $000F and $0010. The names haven’t been localized and the French and Spanish localizations leave their names blank. Furthermore, their item attributes have been removed, meaning that they cannot be unlocked in the kennel.
Maltese dogs were added in Nintendogs + Cats, but Papillon dogs still remain unreleased.
Golden Retriever
Even though golden retrievers were introduced in localized releases, unfinished data for it can be found in Japanese games. Like the two unreleased breeds described above, it uses placeholder data. Interestingly, there’s no file for a third variant (Glc_c).
Alternate Variants
Excluding the unused breeds, there are at least three variants available for all dog breeds. However, placeholder data for several more variants exist. There would have been one more variant for Chihuahuas (Chi_e), toy poodles (Pdl_d), and shiba inus (Sib_d), and two more variants for miniature dachshunds (Mdf_d and Mdf_e).
Unused Music
SSEQ_0033 (
$21)
Attempting to play it crashes the game because the soundbank and samples for it are missing. When played in a MIDI editor, it’s revealed to be an arrangement of Valkyrie’s Violation, by classical composer Wagner.
It was likely intended to be used on one of the Records, considering the others play renditions of famous classical music.
SSEQ_0037 (
$25)
An alternate rendition of the friendly dog theme without the intro, implying it was supposed to be used as a «regular theme» when meeting friendly dogs on walk.
SSEQ_0052 (
$34)
A variation of the curious dog theme with a slightly tense intro. How it was meant to be used remains a mystery, though.
Unused Agility Competition Data
There exists some unused content specifically for agility competitions.
Unused Tunnel Object
Although various rotated tunnel obstacles are used during agility competitions, this specific variant is never used, rendering its Top Screen icon unused as well.
Unseen Training Obstacle Sequences
The player’s dog can exercise in the local gymnasium to train for agility competitions. Here, there’s no time limit or actual sequence the dog has to go through.
Nevertheless, an actual sequence is configured, which is never used or seen in-game. The unused time limit for these is 99 seconds.

Heres a few cheats I know.
#1. When your on a walk go to the park last and put on an accsecerie and close it. It will save and you can go for another walk.
#2. If you have a pullrope get your dogs to play with it and when it brings it back to you instead of taking it off him drag up really quick.
#3. To get easy trainer points start to wash your dog with the wright shampoo but instead of finishing the bath hook your DS up to the charger and leave it on. Works best at night.
#4. In agility on the balance beam and pole things keep training your dog for about 10 minutes and then go to the park if you can and do the first cheat. I know this helped me.
#5. When your on a walk and your dog finds a present keep clicking B as fast as you can until it gets back. Note you will have to have gone on about 20 walks before
I hope I helped
A couple of cheats and/or tips i would like to share
.don’t press baxyl,and r at the same time before the red Nintendo sign comes on.
.leave a lab and a husky in the same room for 6 hours .(may take a few tries cuz you might get a puppy �if not sorry).
.leave Ur dogs alone for like 2 hours or more maybe less and they will bring you presents.key:1 dog=1 present and so on don’t touch any thing at all for those like 2 hours or it will not work.
.and last but not least to get some good presents on walks go to the corners (when I did that I got a lucky collar,a rose,and a clover clock. yup thats right oh and a bowser cart not lieing.)

Very True Important Tip
Everybody says that if you press a,b,x,y,l & r then it will delete your game. yes, it will, if you press them all at the same time. if you press them one at a time it won’t. but that ‘have puppies’ cheat doen’t work. also, you will know if it has deleted your game or not. if you press them all at the same time, then a message should pop up. it will say:
‘Do you want to delete your data?’
then if you touch yes, it will say:
‘Are you really sure you want to delete your data?’
if you touch yes again, it will do the thing that it does when its saving, just it will say
‘deleting data…’
if you touch yes the first time, it won’t delete your data strait away. then if you touch no either time, it won’t delete your data.

Simple Hints And Tips
you get home (whether or not you won 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place) give your dog a few treats. This will maThese tips are probably obvious to regular Nintendogs players. But new players might not know them.
Right before a contest…
Obedience:
1. Pet your dog and train it with as many tricks as you can. Remember to train him/her with the required tricks for that level of competition before getting into advanced tricks.
2. Give your dog natural food (not canned or regular food) and give your dog milk.
3. Then, wash your dog with the CORRECT SHAMPOO. [Go to the main menu and click on your dog’s name to find out what type of hair they have: short or long.]
4. Next, brush your dog with the CORRECT BRUSH. The rubber brush is for short haired dogs, and the wire brush is for long haired dogs.
After this, it should say that your dog is beautiful and feeling very good.
5. To raise its confidence, pet your dog and train it with each trick that he/she knows.
6. Now, put a lucky collar on your dog (this is optional, for not everyone has this item) and bring him/her to the competition. Your dog should do very well and win 1st place if you have trained him/her correctly. Also, make sure not to discipline your dog if he/she gets something wrong. Yelling or hitting your dog will only bring DOWN its confidence and make it angry with you. When you get home (whether or not you won 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place) give your dog a few treats. This will make your dog love you, and your dog will be happy.
Agility:
1. Take your dog to the Gymnasium to practice for agility competitions. The more you practice, the more confident your dog will be, and the more likely he/she will win.

7. Leave your DS on its charger and leave the brush on your dog’s belly (make sure NOT to bathe it before, otherwise it will stop brushing it and tell you your dog is beautiful.

When you enter an obedience competition, there’s a Free Performance at the end. Here are some advanced tricks that will help you get extra points on this competitions, and will give you extra trainer points for teaching them to your dog.
Laying Jump: Get your dog to lie down on his back. Don’t pet him just yet. While on his back, command him to jump. If he is healthy and well-fed, he’ll jump from this position! Sometimes your puppy won’t be in the mood to do this trick and will simply stand before jumping. If he does it correctly, touch the training icon and say «laying jump».
Back Flip: This trick is similar to the laying jump but is performed from the sitting position. Have your puppy sit, then immediately tell her to jump. If she’s in a good mood, she will turn a flip from a seated position. Quickly touch the training icon and say «back flip».
Handstand: Have your dog lie down, and then tell him to stand (beg). It sounds confusing, but he will understand that you want him to stand on his front paws! It’s more difficult, but you can also slide the stylus down and up quickly when your puppy is in a playful mood (if he shakes his butt) to perform this trick. Tap that training icon and say «handstand», you’ll definitely want to repeat this trick! This trick also works the same as beg in the obedience competition.
(Sometimes, your dog will do the handstand trick rather than beg just to impress the judges.) :]
Spin/Turn: Tell your dog to stand (beg), then make him chase his tail (spin). If it works right he’ll run around in a circle on his back two paws. Touch the training icon and say «turn» to start learning the trick. This trick also works the same as spin in the obedience competition. (Sometimes, your dog will do the turn trick rather than spin just to impress the judges.) :]
Dance: Tell your dog to stand (beg). Take one of your puppy’s paws and motion upwards with it. Help him up and he’ll eventually stand on his hind legs unsteadily, giving the illusion of dancing.
Bunny Hop: Tell your puppy to stand, and then tell your puppy to jump. If it works, he’ll hop around like a bunny!
Break Dance: Have your puppy roll onto his back, and then tell him to chase his tail. He’ll try to do it and end up spinning on his back! Tap your training icon and loudly proclaim «break dance!»
Sneeze: Not as much an advanced trick as an interesting one, touch your dog’s nose at any time to make him or her sneeze.
Then, touch the training icon and say «sneeze». Don’t worry; your puppy won’t get sick.
Wag: The excited butt wagging puppies do when they’re ready to play can also be taught as a trick. Simply touch the training icon while your puppy is in this mood and say something like «wag» or «butt».
Howl: Sometimes a dog will bark outside of your house, causing your pup to start howling. Catch the training icon quickly and you can teach your dog to howl!
Extra Tip:
~ Do you ever hear a firetruck siren that makes your dogs bark like crazy? This is probably some sort of signal… When you hear this, quickly go on a walk (try to wash your dogs, brush them, feed them, water them, etc. early in the day that way they’re ready for their walk.) When you’re walking, try to hit as many ? marks as possible. Also, watch the top screen. If you see the little dog on the top stop walking, jerk your dog’s leash. This is an indication of garbage or a present. Hopefully it’s a present.
The firetruck siren before your walk is a hint that you might find the fire hat and get dalmatians when you get home! :]
Tips for Beginners and more Experienced Players
Dogs:
(For beginners. Read the personality of each dog before getting it. This and the way you reaise it will afeect how it grows up.
(For the more experienced). There are some more difficult tricks you can teach dogs. These
include:
Laying Jump: Get your dog to lay down on his back. Don’t pet him just yet. While on his back, command him to jump. If he is healthy and well-fed, he’ll jump from this position! Sometimes your puppy won’t be in the mood to do this trick and will simply stand before jumping. If he does it correctly, touch the training icon and say «laying jump».
Handstand: Have your dog lay down, then tell him to stand. It sounds confusing, but he will understand that you want him to stand on his front paws! It’s more difficult, but you can also slide the stylus down and up quickly when your puppy is in a playful mood (if he shakes his butt) to perform this trick.
Tap that training icon and say «handstand», you’ll definitely want to repeat this trick!
Walks:
(For beginners). When on a walk, go through as many ? boxes as you can. Some have presents, which can be sold to make money, and some have DS characters who are also walking their dogs. They will give you helpful hints with the game.
(For the more experienced). Need more good presents like the Jack Russell Book? There are no guarantees, but try this:
1. Press the Go Out button.
2. Go to Info.
3. Go to Trainer Info.
4. Go to Birthady. Set it as the date today.

12 Nintendogs Tips
Here’s a quick run-down of things I’ve learned about Nintendogs over the past few months.
- Puppies can only learn up to 14 voice commands so choose ‘em wisely
- Make sure your puppy is happy before he goes for a walk – he’ll find more good items
- Double-tapping on the screen will call all your puppies.
Essential for commuter Nintendogging! - The hunger-measurement thing pauses when they’re on a walk, so leaving it in sleep mode during a walk can save your butt if you won’t have time to feed your puppy for a day or two. Keep your DS charged though! (I haven’t tried this with multiple puppies. Let me know if it still works!)
- Long voice commands are more easily recognised than short ones
- Puppies won’t learn a command over time. I told my puppy to jump once a day for a week and got nothing. 5 times in one day and he got it.
- Check both shops whenever you go on a long walk. Sometimes they get in cool stuff like a keyboard or balloons or doggie treats when you have happy puppies!
- Puppies and balloons do not last long together. They’re pretty funny though.
- On long walks, yank your puppy’s leash to the right edge of the screen and hold it there. He’ll run along at a speedy pace to his next interesting point (or choke and whine, but just keep doing it and give him some lovin’ afterwards).
Yank it to the top-right corner and he’ll jump like he’s hurdling! Pointless but cute. - If you want to win at championship level, you better practice every day.
- Disc competitions: Use the same disc every time, throw it far and throw it straight ahead. That’s all you need to know.
- Agility trials: Just practice and be ruthless if your puppy does his little heartbreaking unhappy tail-down thing. Tough love works best and that little bugger knows exactly how cute he is.
- Obedience trials: I don’t know, sorry. I suck at these.
- Lots of puppies means lots of food. 2 puppies will eat 2 bowls of food at a time.
- Lots of puppies also means lots of lovin’. You better have a lot of spare time if you want three championship puppies!
BTW, where are all the Nintendogs?? I’ve been walking all over London in Bark Mode, haven’t met another Nintendo DS in bark mode! No sausage-dog or rat-dog for me… Oh well, no great loss.
Also, what is up with the dictionary box? What’s that supposed to be? “Clicka-clicka-clicka-clicka-CLONK!” Huh?
Antagonist Muscle Training — Bear Paw Blog
Today you train your back, tomorrow your legs, and a couple of days later your chest. It would seem that a strict training plan has been drawn up and such a program is the only sure way to gain muscle mass. However, over time, our muscles adapt to this order. And what is the most important thing in mass training? That’s right, stress. Muscles need to be under stress in order for them to have a reason to grow. Hence the need for diversity.
Antagonist muscle training
All the muscles in our body are divided into two types: agonists and antagonists. If, for example, we train the triceps and chest, then in this case our exercises are aimed at the growth of the agonist muscles. Triceps and chest in this case help us to straighten our arms in the elbow joints. On another day, we can train the biceps, whose function is to bend the arm at the elbow joint.
So we train each muscle group separately on different days during the week.
But what happens if you train, for example, biceps and triceps on the same day? Antagonist muscle training has two significant advantages over a traditional linear program:
- First, muscles recover faster between sets;
- Secondly, the process of supplying the muscles with nutrients is much better.
Scientists have long noticed that the so-called active recovery is more profitable than passive. In other words, during a heavy set on one muscle group, the other receives little stimulation, which leads to its readiness for a new set. It turns out that during the training you can do a much larger amount of work.
After you have completed the set, for example, on the biceps, the blood begins to gradually drain from the muscle. However, when training the muscles of the antagonists, although in a mild form, the stimulation of one muscle continues, while we train the other.
It turns out that there is a simultaneous rest and at the same time, the supply of nutrients.
Antagonist Muscle Training Chart
A sample Antagonist Muscle Training Plan can be drawn up as follows:
- First day: Chest — Back
- Second day: Rest
- Third day: Biceps — Triceps
- Fourth day: Rest
- Fifth day: Legs (quadriceps and hamstrings).
- Sixth day: Rest
- Seventh day: Rest
The days of the week can be divided into different ways. It all depends on your preferences, as well as the mode of the day. It is better to make sure that there is time for recovery and a productive workout.
The process of training and rest between sets
The process of training antagonist muscles is not much different from a linear program. Here it is also important to remember how important it is to prepare the body before the lesson itself. To do this, you need to warm up properly. As «assistants» you can use Band4power or Supreme Athletics rubber loops.
They are just designed for warming up, but they can also be used during the workout itself. They perfectly complement the usual exercises, making the training even more effective.
As for the rest between sets, there are certain nuances that need to be remembered. First of all, rest between sets for large muscle groups (chest, back, legs) should be approximately 60 seconds. For example, they did a bench press, rested for 60 seconds and began to do pull-ups. Rest between sets for small muscle groups should be approximately 30 seconds. This applies to biceps, triceps, shoulders, etc.
However, here everything is individual. You need to listen to your body and do exactly what suits you. At first, it may seem that such training is too complicated. Well, how can you train your chest and back on the same day? You need to start small. Do not immediately load the antagonist muscles with a large amount of work. So there is a risk of injury.
Use a variety of training accessories.
For example, the HandYoga simulator, which develops the extensors of the fingers. This is a really important tool because it helps us prepare for tough workouts, have a strong grip and avoid injury.
Top 10 Games for Dog Lovers
Contents
Dogs are usually presented in video games as loyal and unwavering companions. Their role is usually to go on a journey with the game’s protagonist, but that’s not the only purpose they serve. The dog’s presence often gives the player a brief moment of normalcy in the otherworldly experience.
While these adorable creatures can sometimes be hostile towards the player, there’s no denying the level of enchantment they can add to the overall gaming experience. Some of the best dog-themed video games feature cute creatures as antagonists, but that doesn’t take away from the animal lover’s desire to reach out and give a quick pat on the head.
10 The Last Guardian
At the beginning of The Last Guardian, a nameless boy wakes up in a cave system where he has no memory of traveling.
In addition to the confused child is Trico, a mythological creature whose design echoes the abundance of various animals. While the beast’s appearance may terrify the player, its playful canine nature reduces the level of intimidation.
Although Trico is initially aggressive towards the boy, the journey they embark on leads to an inseparable bond between them. Like a dog, Trico must be trained to obey the boy’s commands if they hope to escape the mysterious land they find themselves in. The story of The Last Guardian marks one of the warmest owner-pet relationships in gaming history.
9 Tokyo Jungle
Tokyo Jungle tells the heartbreaking story of a city where all the inhabitants have mysteriously disappeared. In the absence of humanity, animals are free to roam the now barren land of the world, but surviving its horrors is quite difficult.
Throughout the journey, the player will be given the opportunity to play as a variety of animals, but the breeds of dogs presented in the game are perhaps the cutest.
Controlling one of the many dog breeds available, the player will hunt to survive, leading to some of the most ridiculous battles in gaming.
8 The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs
It’s unfortunate that the basic version of The Sims 4 lacked cute animals, but the 2017 Cats & Dogs DLC fixed that oversight. The DLC finally allowed long-time fans of the series to have their own animals, and also gave them the chance to explore Brindleton Bay.
Brindleton Bay is a coastal town full of like-minded animal lovers. While wandering around the city, the player will come across a variety of different cats and dogs that they can interact with, further enhancing the city’s general love for animals. The DLC also allows the player to open a veterinary clinic if they so desire.
7 Final Fantasy 14
Players will have to complete the main story of Final Fantasy 14 if they hope to get the mount quickly. Upon reaching level 20 and joining the Great Company, the quest «My Little Chocobo» will become available, and upon completion, the player will have the opportunity to explore the vast lands of Hydaelin astride a feathered friend.
Until 2022, Final Fantasy 14 focused primarily on the inclusion of fantastical and otherworldly creatures, but the arrival of Megashiba has completely reinvigorated the game for dog lovers. Players can now ride a giant Shiba Inu before embarking on their adventures, allowing them to take man’s best friend with them on all their adventures.
6 Animal Crossing: New Horizons
The Animal Crossing series is full of unique dogs with different personalities. The player will most likely encounter a few canine neighbors when moving to their new city, but if they don’t, a quick visit to the town hall on Saturday night will fill their needs.
During the player’s stay in his new city, he is likely to come across at least one of the twenty-eight dog-like villagers. Each canine has a unique design and behavior, and both features work together to give them a sense of individuality.
5 Life of a Dog
Set in the suburban town of Clarksville, Life of a Dog allows animal lovers to take on the role of Jake, a young, immature American Foxhound with a big heart.
Early in the game, Jake witnesses Daisy, his beloved Labrador, being kidnapped by dog catchers.
To save Daisy from her captors, Jake travels to Boom City in hopes of finding clues to her whereabouts. On his journey, the player will be allowed to play as fifteen different dogs, each with unique abilities.
4 Nintendogs
Nintendogs is one of the most adorable dog-fueled video game series ever made. In each entry in the series, the player adopts and names a dog before bringing it home to live with them. Upon returning home, the player will have the opportunity to embark on a series of charming adventures with their new companion.
As in real life, the player will have to train, walk and bathe their new companion, but thanks to game design, these activities have become much more enjoyable. Nintendogs works in real time, so the player must regularly groom their pet to keep it happy.
3. Blair Witch
After a boy goes missing in the Black Hills Forest, Ellis, along with his faithful German Shepherd Bullet, will join a search party in hopes of finding him.
In most Blair Witch games, the Bullet is placed next to the player, but he is much more than a charming character.
The bullet was given to Ellis by his police department because his employers thought they both had a similar history. As a trained police dog, Ellis can call on Bullet to explore places of interest. He may also praise the dog for successfully following commands given to him, a feature that lends much-needed sweetness to the game.
Skyrim is set in a land full of countless mythological creatures, but sometimes the player will yearn for the presence of something more familiar. While traveling through the vast world, Dova-Kiens will most likely encounter many adorable dogs that will gladly join the player on their adventures if requested.
The addition of the Hearthfire DLC allows dragonborn to buy and decorate their own home. If the player wishes, they can also invite their newly adopted pets to live with them, making their home feel more like a home than before.
