Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Silent Dog Training Whistle
Customer Review: Yoo-Hoo!!
Summary: 3 Stars
The best rating I can give this device is three stars. As a former teacher I see that as average. It makes the noise it's supposed to make. No more, no less. Nothing special happens. It gets a "C".
I bought the whistle in hopes that the ultra-high pitched sounds it produces would be heard by my aging dog. Well, I guess she's too far gone. But then, none of the dogs in the neighborhood responded when I blew on the whistle. So I really don't know what works best, my dog's ears or this inexpensive whistle that neither my dog nor I can hear.
Customer Review: Dogs didn't react but the cats did!!
Summary: 2 Stars
Neither of my two dogs made any sort of visible response when I blew this whistle (which does make an annoying sound that humans can hear). Their ears did not prick, they didn't turn to look; I could have whistled until the cows came home and they would not have reacted.
However, one of my cats came running. She actually climbed up on my lap and purred, which is unusual behavior for her. This has happened almost every time I blow the whistle. If I can't find this cat I blow the whistle and she comes runniing. Go figure.
So although it did nothing to attract my dogs' attention it is worth something in that it did attract my cat's attention. Maybe the company producing this item should change it to a "cat" whistle.
And I am being completely serious here.
Customer Review: Deceiving
Summary: 2 Stars
I feel this whistle is advertised poorly. From the deceiving review it appears that the whistle will only produce very high frequencies that the dog can hear but the neighbors will not. Part of this is true, however I believe that this statement misleads the customer into thinking the whistle operates only in this high frequency register such that humans can not hear it at all. This is not the case. The whistle produces a very breathy awful sounding tone when blown that makes it annoying to use. The product itself is pretty cheap quality as well.Customer Review: Silent is right
Summary: 1 Stars
Total crap. Bought 2 of these, thinking they were real. What junk, no reaction from either dog no matter how the "whistle" was adjusted. I was hoping for more, thought Amazon would screen out rip offs. They should dump this vendor.
Save your money.....
Customer Review: Is not good enough
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this to try to address the problem of my neighbour's barking dogs. I went red in the face blowing on the thing and the dogs were not affected, they didn't bark more nor less. I even connect the whistle with a 60 psi compressor to no avail.
