| awesomeNovember 5, 2017 this whistle works great.all you have to do is read the instuctions and be kind to your dog and it works perfect.should have gotten it sooner.Thanks for the great product. I recommend it for anyone needing a quality whistle for training ...September 22, 2017 This product was well priced and met all my expectations. I recommend it for anyone needing a quality whistle for training dogs. Five StarsSeptember 4, 2017 Easy to use and the information and communication from this company has been stellar. Pocket size!July 11, 2017 At first this was hard to use, but after awhile i got used to it. I love the fact that I can put it in my pocket or on key rings. Highly recommendJune 29, 2017 I was pleasantly surprised when not 1 but both of my dogs respond positively to this whistle. It works great!!!June 18, 2017 I tried your dog whistle as soon as I received it and it really works great. I really like it. | Fantastic training tool -- but do your homework before using!April 25, 2016 I have two retriever mixes who bark their heads off when they see squirrels in the backyard. (The squirrels taunt them, which doesn't help!) It's gotten so bad that neighbors complained, and it frustrates all of us. This whistle arrived yesterday, and it's already making such a huge difference that I just ordered two more for the other people in my household!It took a little experimentation to find the right frequency for my dogs, and I checked several online dog-training resources for tips on how best to use it before getting started. You can't just open this up, blow into it and expect your dog to read your mind. You have to set up a very clear association between your dog hearing the whistle and getting high-value treats and praise before actually introducing commands. I practiced a few dozen times with my dogs in the house (whistle, treat, whistle, treat, etc) before upping the difficulty by trying it outdoors, where there were more distractions.It's still a work in progress, but it used to take me 20 minutes to get them back in the house if they were barking at a squirrel. I just managed it in 30 seconds! As one of the websites I found in my research pointed out, the whistle never sounds happy or angry or frustrated -- it takes the emotion out of the command, which makes it easier for the dog to feel confident about how to respond. My dogs were never very good at recall to begin with, and this is already making a major difference.I was initially put off by the so-so and negative reviews, but it seemed like many of them were written by people who didn't use the whistle as part of a training program, or even on their own dogs. It won't get your neighbor's dogs to stop barking (unless you also bribe them with treats). Dogs need a reason to do or stop doing something. If used correctly, this whistle can help you give them that reason. It doesn't require a huge time commitment on your part, but it does require some. I've spent about 30 minutes total so far, and it was time well spent. Thank you, Smarter Pet! Works on owners too!March 23, 2016 I was skeptic to buy this as I really didn't think it would work. My neighbor has a yappy dog which they sit with on the patio on the other side of a hedge from my patio. Al you hear is "yap, yap, yap" then the word "no" from the neighbors wife. I don't know whats more annoying, the dog or the feeble attempt to stop it. "Yap, yap, yap....No." I have complained but they don't care. I tried this whistle as soon as it arrived and once I got the adjustable pitch right it does stop the dog from barking.This is the funny part, my neighbor can also hear the tone, as I can when I blow the whistle, so he knows when I am using it. He now thinks his dog is in pain when I blow the whistle, because it stops in mid bark, and he immediately takes the dog inside. So not only does the whistle work on barking dogs, it also works on pain in the butt neighbors. It's nice to have a nice quiet patio once more. Excellent productOctober 24, 2015 I originally bought this with multiple intentions in mind, I wanted to be able to stop my dog's barking rampages when someone's on the sidewalk or diving by, as well as to be able to call her to "come."Every time I get sick, the first thing to go is my voice, so training her to come on whistle was my first objective. Within 2 days she's got the hang of it and even when she's barking and distracted, she'll come when I whistle. Life is now so much easier with this small device around.Both the whistle and lanyard are extremely well put together, I have no concern that either will break. The lanyard is not adjustable and is much too long for me, the whistle comes down to my belly button when I'm using it, so it now stays in my pocket. My only possible concern is that one day I'll drop it and never find it.I did originally think that the whistle would come out of the snap enclosure, but that concern was unfounded. I've never seen any indication it would come lose after wearing it on the lanyard or even with it in my pocket jingling up against change, my cell phone, or keys. If a dog doesn't respond to the whistle, it's likely a training problem, not a whistle problem.October 15, 2015 My dogs have no problem hearing this from far away. I can blow it in when I'm in the back of the house (inside, with the door open) and the dogs can hear it clear on the other side of the property (outside). They immediately come running.One thing to keep in mind with reviews on this product is that **dog whistles are not magic**. A dog often needs to be *trained* to respond to the whistle- just like anything else. Just because a dog doesn't respond when you blow it, that doesn't mean (s)he can't hear it! If you are having a problem with the whistle, consult a qualified dog trainer. If you want your dog to come to you when you blow the whistle, train him/her by blowing the whistle and then asking your dog to come to you. Then praise your dog profusely for coming. Repeat. It won't take long before your dog comes to you with just the whistle. It took my dog ONE time before he understood. Well trained dogs will take to it faster, but all dogs can learn to respond to the whistle. My point is, just because a dog doesn't show interest at first, doesn't mean the whistle is defective. The problem is likely the training (or lack there of).My only complaint is the plastic that holds the whistle so you can remove it easily. This could have been better engineered. The rest of the whistle is of good quality. I don't know why they decided to use plastic there. It doesn't compromise the functionality of the whistle itself, but it's not as durable as I would have liked. I suspect that the plastic is going to break or warp/wear with use, causing it to not hold the whistle securely. Time will tell. Love this productAugust 17, 2015 I say quiet followed by using this whistle, dog stops barking AND sits quietly. Tried it tonight aith a large german shepard and 2 boxers approaching. My dog growled which is his pre loud bark, I gave command QUIET with whistle blow and no problems with barking at all. This works like magic, other dogs cease barking when close to this sound. Thanks. Great Tool!!July 17, 2015 After conditioning my dog, it works perfectly. You have to blow into the whistle to find the sweet spot, blow to hard or not enough and the whistle may be ineffective. My dog returns every time I blow this whistle. |

| Well made and sturdy product!August 21, 2017 I still have to learn how to use it, but I think it is a sturdy well made product. This did not work for my dogs, I tried ...August 6, 2017 This did not work for my dogs, I tried using it for our pitbulls & Chihuahua. Otherwise well made product. Four StarsJuly 20, 2017 Didn't work with my dogs, it was worth the try after I read the mixed reviews. Still working with the puppyJuly 9, 2017 Working with my puppy had been a challenge, and this seems to help. He is stubborn and we love him. hear meJune 24, 2017 well so far our pet comes from a distance so far so good Training Whistle to Temper BarkingJune 23, 2017 I got this to help temper my puppy's barking. It grabs her attention, and we are still working on it. Just started working with it, so I didn't give 5 stars at this time. | Get your pup's attentionMay 9, 2016 Seems to work well. I'm still learning how to really benefit from its use but it gets my pups attention and that's the first step. What I appreciated most about the whistle was the email with detailed instructions.February 28, 2016 Did not get to get the full benefit from this device because the offender (dog with piercing bark) was adopted out shortly after receiving the whistle. What I appreciated most about the whistle was the email with detailed instructions. Before getting that email, I had been trying all kinds of other (ineffective) ways to adjust it's sound. Anyway, thank God it all worked out that I didn't need it any more. It seems to work well for some dogs, and not othersJanuary 14, 2016 This seems to work for some dogs, and not others. I tuned the sound to be somewhat like a tea kettle. Very shrill, and if I blow hard on it, I can start to feel the pressure on my ear drums. I am sure it is unpleasant to the dogs. Anyway, I went out back and blew it full volume at a larger dog behind the fence, and he stopped barking after just a few blasts that I timed to coincide with his barking. Just blew one constant, loud note while he barked. After about five of these 10-20 second blasts, he stopped barking - even when I continued to walk around my yard. However ... the little dog (puppy) in the next yard did NOT stop barking. He just kept on going. Maybe he would have stopped eventually, but I got tired of blowing before he got tired of barking. In fact, his owner came out and told him to shut up. Which is just as good, I guess. Maybe she heard the whistle and figured out what was going on? Anyway, at least half the barking has stopped. I'm not going to lie. I've been known to ...December 27, 2015 I'm not going to lie. I've been known to sleep and Prime. This product came to my doorstep and I had to get on to my account to see if I actually ordered it. I did!!!! Don't sleep and Prime people!! Thankfully I have 4 dogs and it has been working wonders on them. Thank you Amazon! Works in car ride to dog walk....November 1, 2015 It's kinda cheap product but surprisely works, only reason I got this is to control my dogs behaviour in our van when we go for dog walk, when our dogs sees people, other dogs or rabbits, she gets out of control barking, go crazy in the van, like tearing up our door panel, I blew up this whistle , WOW, she calmed down fast!!!! Thus, I'm deaf but seeing this action really works, when I see dog, people nearby, grab the whistle to be prepared, she starts getting rattled, I blow. My wife is deaf too, she laugh. So,, hopefully that would break her habit in the car rides. It does work for us. (so far). Good toolOctober 24, 2015 I would put 5 stars, but some dogs dont shut up with this, i know you have to tune it, but its kinda hard to be tuning for different dogs and then re-tune back since some dogs react to a different tune. Lol. Our inside little loud stubborn dogs did improve though! I dont get home from work anymore to very loud DOGS. Thnx. |

| Three StarsOctober 12, 2017 not overly impressed Three StarsSeptember 18, 2017 I'm not sure it really works? Work well but I lost it.August 15, 2017 I use this Whistle for recall. This Whistle work with my dog really well.I did tested when my dog sleeping. Her ear stand up right way. Unfortunately I lost it less than week I used. I was wearing it. It's gone , I noticed the Whistle is missing when I got home.hope the ribbon is more secure. Dog whistleMay 23, 2017 Never got next doors dog to stop barking 120s Three StarsMay 22, 2017 does not stop my neighbors dogs from barking, probably would work okay for training purposes. I think it's working to train my neighbors dog but ...May 17, 2017 I think it's working to train my neighbors dog but I thought it was quiet and it is not. It's time consuming and gets you out of breathe. | Three StarsMarch 17, 2017 It doesn't work that well or I am to far away from the dog... Three StarsMay 29, 2016 My dogs ignore it, but I'm not going to blame the product. Three StarsDecember 11, 2015 Didn't work for me, most likely due to the level of hearing that my dog possesses. each dog is different, worked for oneNovember 23, 2015 It worked well for one of my doxies but not as well for the other. It only took a few times of deliveries coming to the front door with the new whistle to get their attention. The one doxie the was a little more resident still lessened barking just not as impactful as it was for my older dog The dog responded the first few times I blew the ...November 7, 2015 The dog responded the first few times I blew the whistle cause she was curious where the sound was coming from. After that I would blow the whistle and 0. Just goes to show you she is smarter then the master. Stop barking dog whistleSeptember 4, 2015 I had high hopes for this product but unfortunately it did not stop her barking. She would stop, look & then go back to sounding off. We have since resorted to a static correction collar which was our last choice but this has worked over all other methods tried. Whistle is nice & was as described, just didn't work for us. |

| Waste of moneyOctober 1, 2017 This thing is a joke. You can twist it all you want, but it doesn't change any frequencies. You might as well buy a regular whistle. Doesn't work.August 23, 2017 My dogs hear it but it doesn't stop any type of whining, barking, crying. They do not seem to be phased at ALL. I have tried different pitches and have stuck with it for multiple days. I'm glad it's worked for others but for my 2 maltipoos it does not. Adjustment ring frozenMarch 19, 2017 I tried everything, but adjustment ring was frozen. I will return this. Very disappointed! Two StarsMarch 16, 2017 The lanyard was broken. Just and FYI. This is not silent at all. It's actually quite loud. Better options out thereNovember 4, 2016 Average whistle for the money.Just isnt as good as i thought it would be.Better options out there for less money. the strap separated within 5 minutes.May 20, 2016 the strap separated within 5 minutes. It is very hard to tell when you are making adjustments and recognize when the dog can hear the pitch | Not sureOctober 1, 2016 Doesn't do a whole lot. Our dog pretty much ignores it. We tried adjusting it but it didn't change the fact that our dog didn't respond to it. Maybe we are doing something wrong? Maybe I blew it buy buying this whistle?January 2, 2016 Not a fan, seems to bother my wife more than our dog... Don't get any ideas fellas. I bought this hoping it would help with the barking ...December 21, 2015 I bought this hoping it would help with the barking. Packaging is just in a clear plastic bag. No instructions (really didn't need any) Nothing fancy--no biggie. I try it every time my shepherd barks, but it really doesn't have much of an affect on her. Thought it would be the miracle I was looking for, but it isn't. Wasn't expensive, so it's not a big issue with me. Always trying to find something to help with her barking--this just wasn't the answer. Not for scaring, only for teachingDecember 19, 2015 Lower score since it doesn't "stop barking." This is a training tool to get an animal's attention. It's very good at that but does not scare anyone. I bought it to keep a coyote at bay. He still comes, just knows I'm there. It gets his attention (and the cat's and the dog's), that's all. Didn't workSeptember 19, 2015 I would adjust it in many different ways but my dog looks at me and keep your whatever she was going whether it's good or bad. I'm sad that didn't work I was really hoping to train my dog with a dog whistle that she might respond to but she didn't. I guess she's too stubborn for a dog whistle. Noisy Neighbor DogsSeptember 15, 2015 Didn't work for what we needed it to, but the sellers refunded the purchase because it didn't work for us (satisfaction guaranteed). That was pretty awesome! Can still hear the dogs barking in the wee morning hours if anyone has other solutions! |

| One StarOctober 2, 2017 This didn't work on my dogs..:{ One StarJuly 28, 2017 Did not work...😦 One StarMay 24, 2017 didnt work right out of the box... had high hopes for this in training my new pup... A defective unit?May 2, 2017 Preview Your Review1.0 out of 5 starsBy MKN on May 2, 2017I tried many adjustments for frequencies and used different levels of blowing. No response from my 15 month German shepherd, even when she is sleeping within 10 feet from me. Maybe this item is defective or maybe I am not using it properly. False advertisingNovember 22, 2016 Dogs did not stop barking at all. This is a TRAINING whistle. | It doesn't WorkMarch 25, 2016 This tool did not work at all, I tried all different settings, looked at the instructions it came with, researched online, and read reviews on amazon to try to see if I was using it incorrectly. My dogs (I have two French Bulldogs) looked at me with cocked heads whenever I used it and then continued to go about their business doing whatever it was at the time I was trying to get them to stop doing. Even with the anti-loss cover and lanyard, it fell off while around my neck while we were outside on a walk. It was nearly $10 wasted :( Do Spend You MoneyJanuary 21, 2016 The dog whistle is very hard to find the correct pitch for the dog. The instructions tell you how to lock the pitch once you figure it out, but I have not yet been able to do this. I would not recommend this product. It was a waste of money for meDecember 23, 2015 It was a waste of money for me. I might as well be whispering to get my dogs attention. I suppose if you have one dog and are within 5 feet of the dog, it may work. I have six, free-range dogs who like to join the coyotes in a howlathon and it has no effect at all. LoudDecember 10, 2015 Nothing silent about this...I don't know if I am a dog or what, but I have yet to find a dog whistle that is silent or even quiet to the human ear. It gets the dog's attention but also everyone in the neighborhood. Didn't workDecember 9, 2015 This seemed to have no effect on my dogs. I'm pretty sure they heard it, because at first they turned and looked at me. I thought it would prevent their barking while in the back yard. But no, it did not. Would not recommend. useless for my pomeraniansNovember 4, 2015 useless for my pomeranians....they could have cared less. i have 3 poms and when guests come over they bark for a few minutes. tried using this to train them-tried all together and all separate. worked on none of them. |

Feature | STOP BARKING - Use it to call your dog or train to stop barking. Change frequencies since different dogs respond to different frequencies TRAINING WHISTLE - Teach your dog commands and let him learn basic hand movements while whistling different times for each command. TAKE CONTROL - Control your dog whenever he gets out of line and make it listen and obey. Once your dog learns the commands, you will have full control no matter hwere you are. FREE LANDARD STRAP - Great tool to have when you are training your dog. Dont have to worry about misplacing or loosing your dog whistle. The landyard detaches if you prefer to use only the whistle DIRT PROTECTION- Includes a cover that goes over the whistle so that it is not exposed and protected at all times. Keep dirt away from the whistle by using this plastic whistle cover | GUARANTEED TO STOP BARKING AND HELP DOGS BECOME MORE OBEDIENT - The Smarter Pet Premium Dog Whistle is the best and most versatile whistle available! Quickly train your dog to stop barking and follow simple commands. Also works on your neighbor's dogs! TWO ANTI-LOSS FEATURES (NEVER LOSE ANOTHER WHISTLE AGAIN!) - Our whistle contains two layers of protection: A special lock nut, and a protective tight-grip snap cover. Our anti-loss snap cover shields the whistle from any outside movement or contact that can inadvertantly unscrew the whistle. It has a tight, firm grip that will hold your whistle in place and never come loose! Other cheaper whistles ONLY have a lock nut, which is not enough protection for regular use. EASY TO USE AND COMPACT IN SIZE - Simply adjust the frequency rod until you find the frequency your dog best responds to, then use the locking nut to lock in that frequency. Finally, place the anti-loss snap cover on top and you are good to go! Our whistle is compact, high quality, and lightweight, making it incredibly efficient and convenient. KEEP YOUR OPTIMUM DESIRED FREQUENCY - Most dog whistles can easily lose preferred frequencies after getting bumped and coming slightly unscrewed. This results in having to constantly readjust the frequency which can get old VERY fast! Our whistle's dual anti-loss feature ensures this will never happen again! PREMIUM LANYARD AND 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE INCLUDED - Included with every whistle is a custom branded Smarter Pet lanyard that looks and feels great to wear while training your dog.
