Hey everyone!
I've been thinking about getting a whistle and training my dog to come when I whistle. I saw it on It's Me or the Dog, and I thought it would be a great thing to do. On the show, Victoria pretty much blew the whistle and then fed the dogs treats repeatedly...Dakota is very food driven, so I'm guessing that would work out well for her. Have you guys ever done anything like this? I have heard that there are special whistles and things that hunters use, but I'd just like to get a basic whistle...what do you guys think? Any tips/pointers?
