Dog Whistle Elite app review: a guide to training your buddy

Introduction

If you have a new puppy in your home, or you want to teach your old dog some new tricks, then Dog Whistle Elite (Training Guide + Clicker included) is a tool that you might consider downloading on your iPhone or iPad.

What we have here is a comprehensive training guide that will help your dog become a member of the household, and it comes with a very cool whistle which can produce sounds between eight and 22 kHz.

This app can be found, surprisingly, in the News section of the App Store, where it can be purchased for 99 cents.

Let's take a closer look at its features.

Training Guide

Dog Whistle Elite (Training Guide + Clicker included) is a lightweight app, taking up just 1.3 MB of space on your iPhone or iPad. This app was created with the counsel of professional dog training experts so you can get the best results out of your training time with your buddy.

Not only will you be able to teach your dog the basics of living in a human household, such as relieving themselves outside the house, but you'll also be able to get the most stubborn of dogs to sit, lie down, shake your hand, fetch, close doors, and other cool tricks.

High-Frequency Whistle

As I mentioned in the introduction, the app also features a very cool dog whistle, which can be used through the process of training your dog. The whistle has a range of eight to 22 kHz. You will learn to test the frequency to which your dog responds best and then use that as a tool to train him or her.

As an added bonus, some theories suggest that high frequency sounds can also be used to avert bugs and rodents. If you want to test that theory, the app allows for a timer up to nine hours to be set on the whistle.

The only downside to this app, in my opinion, is that the dog whistle isn't as effective as it could be playing directly from the iOS device. I think speakers are a must while using this app.
