I came up with a great idea to pick up women. Better than a puppy.
Buy an expensive purse... walk around the mall... every time you see a woman of interest, walk up to her and say "excuse me is this your purse?" She will say something like: No, but that's a really nice purse. You could then say “Well, if you were my gf I would buy you one. When is your birthday?” That should open the door. Just know you are buying her affection.
When you're done- RETURN THE PURSE- you can't do that with a puppy
Good luck
