Product Information
Full details
The ACME 211.5 ALPHA Dog Whistle is designed for dog trainers and pet owners who prioritize consistent, long-range communication during field training or daily exercise. Its primary benefit is a stable 5700Hz frequency that travels up to 1.5km while requiring minimal air pressure to sound, though its high-pitched nature means it may not be suitable for those with extreme sensitivity to ultrasonic-adjacent tones.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This whistle requires no specialized setup or tuning; it is ready to use immediately. For mouth-held operation, simply grip the ergonomic section firmly between your teeth. To clean the device, rinse it periodically with warm soapy water to remove dust, grit, or saliva buildup. Shake out excess water and allow it to air dry fully. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents that could damage the internal whistle chamber or exterior grip texture. While the material is durable, keep the whistle away from extreme heat sources to prevent deformation of the precision-engineered internal channels.
