  • Very effective but ads are annoying

    Seems to work well especially when using an external speaker for neighbors dogs. Wish the ads and rating requests weren’t always popping up
  • Works with my Cocker Spaniel!

    Wow, I wasn’t expecting anything to happen, but this app has been fantastic! Frank starts ruthlessly barking after a few normal barks and that’s when I open the app and say “quiet”. The ad pop-ups do affect the timeliness needed to optimally use the app, however, and I would pay for the app to not have ads, so I hope that will eventually take place (I’d pay $3-$5, anything more would need to have more features, like a clicking sound for training or a timed set of training exercises for positive behavioral routines to promote the importance of establishing boundaries (for both dog and dog parent(s)).

    My Story: I have a 4-year-old American cocker spaniel named, Frank. Frank has appointed himself as our 24-7 (excepting naps) security guard and it’s even worse when dogs walk by our home - he’s uncontrollable then and all bets are off. However, if he’s barking at neighbors, strange noises, squirrels, the changing wind, etc., the whistle app will snap him out of it, so to speak and allow him the attention span to hear me say, “quiet”. Does it work all of the time? No, but Frank is not a robot and I don’t expect it to be 100% effective, but it’s an efficient step in the right direction and is helping to form new habits. Hopefully eventually he will snap out of it when I just say, “quiet”.

    This really works well.. yes adds are irritating but acceptable for me to use. I have 2 Australia shepherds and it stops them in their tracks when they are getting into trouble.. I would recommend giving it a try.
  • Ads are a problem!

    You cannot exit out of the ad in time to use the dog whistle when it’s needed to correct dog. Deleting this app.
  • No more ads please

    No more ads please
  • TOO MANY ADS

    The purpose of using a dog whistle app is to be able to use it when needed to help train my dog. Instead every time I need to use it, I have to wait for the ad to stop playing and then the moment is over. It’s SO FRUSTRATING. Do not recommend.
  • Ads are intrusive and it constantly crashes

    Clicking a whistle did nothing to the dogs but popped up an ad and once closed, it crashed over and over again.
  • Far too many pop up ads!

    The frequency of pop up ads almost render the app unusable.
  • Dogs react

    For effectiveness I did try it on my own dog. It was just for a quick little spurt and I did get a reaction out of him. Obviously he was bugged by it and walked the other way. He’s a little dog who reacted to the most audible whistle. I’m just afraid the ads will get in the way at the moment of truth when I really need it other than that it works

  • Ads defeat the purpose of the app

    Why so many ads? Takes away from the purpose of the app.
