You have to find out a frequency that your dog reacts to. Wait until your pup is asleep, then test each tone. The right one will wake him right up.\n\nTraining. You have to teach your dog what the whistle sound means. \n\nFirst, you can use a whistle to mark the behaviour, as “good job”. Tap the whistle, give a treat, tap the whistle give a treat, etc. This way your dog will start making a positive association with it.\n\nSecond, with the help of Dogo - dog training app, teach your dog some obedience commands, e.g. sit or lay down. Once your dog has mastered it, assign a whistle pattern that will represent the command.\n\nPlay the pattern, e.g. 2 short taps, say sit and reward your dog for performing. In the beginning, always combine whistle pattern with the verbal cue. After a few days of doing 20 repetitions/ day, play the pattern and once your dog sits down, reward with a jackpot! Do the same with different commands, e.g. down/ come just choose a different sound pattern. Note it down.\n\nWarning. Use dog whistle only sparingly, tap only in conjunction with a reward. Pay attention to your pet. If they don’t seem to like it, get tense, run way, tuck the tail, consider abandoning the method altogether.","facts":{"developer_id":1464511642,"developer_url":"https://dogo.app","first_released":"2019-08-24T07:00:00Z","support_url":"https://www.facebook.com/dogoTrain","privacy_url":"https://dogo.app/privacy/","website_url":"https://dogo.app/","app_version":"1.0.4","release_notes":"Under-the-hood refresh: updated libraries and full compatibility with the latest iOS versions for smoother, more reliable whistle training.","rating_current_version":4.55463,"rating_count_current_version":1199,"star_counts":[66,24,48,102,959],"genres":["Utilities","Education"],"languages":["EN","DE","PL","RU"],"content_advisories":null,"device_families":["iphone","ipad","ipod"],"made_for_iphone_duo":false,"chart":null},"freshness":{"apple_read_at":"2026-11-12T10:42:12.536Z","catalog_read_at":"2026-11-13T11:18:12.870Z","reviews_checked_at":null,"summary_written_at":"2026-11-12T11:22:13.296Z","placed_at":"2026-11-12T11:17:12.841Z","scored_at":"2026-11-14T18:45:13.756Z"},"editorial":{"one_liner":"Dog whistle app that plays whistle tones and tap patterns to train dogs at a distance, paired with treats and verbal.","what_is":"Whistle Training for Dogs:Dogo is a Utilities app that plays whistle sounds to train dogs at a distance instead of shouting commands.
