Which dog whistle?
« on: July 12, 2010, 09:18:24 AM »
I was wondering if anyone had advice on the best dog whistle to get for a cocker spaniel? I have just been looking online and there seem to be hundreds and all of different pitches.

Some seem to better for particular breeds, is that right ?

Any advice much appreciated

thanks!

Yes, I use the acme 210.5, mind you it's not as effective when Odie catches sight of another doggie to play with (but that MIGHT just have something to do with my dodgy recall skills :005:)  Lesley  :D

You could always get a black one for him, and the pink one for yourself :005:
