A dog whistle can be used to stop barking, train basic obedience, or even modify specific behaviors. It is most commonly paired with recall training, as it is more distinct and discreet than a human’s voice. If you are trying to train your dog to stop barking, blow the whistle and wait for your dog to re-focus on you. Once you have gotten their attention from blowing the whistle, follow up immediately with the desired command, in this case, we would say “quiet!”. Remember, this whistle is used to get their attention, but then it is your job to use your calm energy, body language, and voice to tell them exactly what you want. After you have given the desired command, wait a few seconds to see if the dog will repeat the negative behavior. Over time, you can phase out the verbal command and just use the whistle, because you have practiced enough times with blowing the whistle and saying “quiet”, that your dog associates the whistle with no barking. Nevertheless, to a dog, this whistle is nothing more than an unconditioned stimulus, it cannot cure barking, howling, or excitement simply by using it.

These are silent to humans but dogs will hear them. Compatibility Own dogs only. Cannot be used to stop neighbours dogs. I was hoping to solve a problem with my dogs neighbor, that sadly keep barking in unsociable times. I have used it to stop him barking at length at people outside walking by. He has responded to this whistle straight away and I did not have to find the right pitch.
One short blow they stop and wait but give it a long blow they come running back to me.
does not work and in fact makes the dog even worse.

Some have tested these one's with ultrasonic devices and they aren't showing what is advertised. I am happy to pay more for a quality one that will last me and is actually ultrasonic and silent. As far as I can see on many sites I can only find cheap ones that are china made and all reviews say the same thing, that they are rubbish and aren't silent. I'm guessing particular pet store might stock some.
