First, 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.
Second, 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.
Play 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.
Warning. 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.
