Review on ACME 717668122103 210 Orange Whistle by Ashley Slater

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect - just what I needed!

This whistle is small, easy to see and loud enough for my needs. The volume depends entirely on how hard you blow into it. So if you're exercising indoors, for example, you can "mute" them to indoor volume, but still relax outside and use them at full volume when needed. . People CAN hear that whistle. It's not quiet at all. IF YOU EXPECT YOUR DOG TO AUTOMATICALLY COME TO THIS WHISTLE, PLEASE READ ON. Dogs are not born with "whistling" DNA. You have to train them to match the whistle. Training is that simple: 1. Eat some treats (REALLY good treats like chicken or scrambled eggs - no chunks or milkbones!) 2. Find your dog - stand next to him/her3. Whistle LIGHTLY and IMMEDIATELY give him a few small bites of treats4. Repeat this several times a day5. Soon your dog will associate the whistle with SUPER delicious food and come running* every time he/she hears it!* Be sure to gradually increase the distance and distractions - if you're going from 5 feet in your boring living room to walk 100 yards in a crowded dog park, you are setting your dog up for failure! Small steps!

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
