FAQs

How do I adjust the pitch of the whistle?

The whistle features an individually tuneable mechanism. Gently turn the designated adjustment area to alter the pitch. Higher pitches are for closer ranges, and lower pitches extend the range.

What is the maximum range of the whistle?

The whistle can achieve a range of up to 150 meters with lower pitches, but this is dependent on wind direction and other environmental factors.

Is this whistle safe for all dogs?

Yes, the whistle is designed for dogs. However, always introduce it gradually and ensure the pitch is adjusted to a level that is effective but not distressing for your individual dog.

What materials is the whistle made from?

The whistle is constructed from a combination of durable metal and plastic.

Can I use this whistle for hunting?

Yes, its adjustable range and consistent tone make it suitable for hunting and fieldwork, particularly for recall or directional commands.

How do I clean the whistle?

Wipe the whistle with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging it in water.

Does the whistle come with a lanyard?

The whistle includes a convenient keyring attachment for portability, but not a separate lanyard.

Troubleshooting

Dog does not respond to the whistle.

Ensure the pitch is adjusted correctly for your dog's hearing and the desired range. Reconfirm that the dog has been properly trained to associate the whistle sound with commands. Check for environmental noise interference.

The whistle tone is inconsistent.

Verify that the frequency protection mechanism is functioning correctly. Ensure the pitch adjustment is securely set and not moving inadvertently. Clean any debris that might be obstructing the whistle's opening.

Whistle is difficult to adjust.

Ensure you are turning the adjustment mechanism correctly. If it feels stuck, try a gentle back-and-forth motion. Avoid forcing the adjustment.
