SportDOG Brand Gonia Special Whistle Review

Ready for Australian Shepherds who like to jump and bark at other dogs. He pauses and immediately sits down. The Sheltie isn't that strong unless I'm in front of him, he eventually stops. It also has to be close. The sound is unidirectional, so ears hurt. I'm going to buy a mega whistle so the sound is focused through the barrel

The worst whistle I've ever used. It's hard to blow and get more than a light whistle out of it. It takes a lot of effort to blow this whistle. Even blowing at full power is still not loud at all. I literally had to use my high roller whistle when working with the dog because he couldn't even hear that shitty whistle. Don't buy, you won't be happy

Ideal for dog training. It's loud, the sound is sharp and long-lasting. Used it to train my labs, Meg, for long range commandos. She responds well to this whistle even when other whistles don't work.

Yes, we will always be best…

You will get two metal whistle with two laces, very nice and easy to make a loud sound to get my puppies attention. There's a pea in that SportDog whistle, so maybe that's the problem, I don't know. The two I replaced are pealess, washable, and sound great even when wet. The reviews for this SportDog whistle…

I was very excited to start whistle training with my dog and researched quite a few whistles before settling on this one. The whistle itself is VERY loud which is nice - and carries well. It's not too high or too low to get lost in the wind/rain, but the downside is that it can pierce the ears of people nearby. So I didn't want to use it for "training" or training in the park - I don't want to bother anyone haha. I'm also a little disappointed that the ball is made of hard cork inside - it got…
