SportDOG Roy Gonia Commander Dog Whistle

Roy’s Commander Whistle from SportDOG is designed for hunting and training in bad weather and pairs well with the Roy Gonia Special. Its lower pitch carries through rain, snow and fog, it is easy to blow, and the rubber mouthpiece gives a better grip in the cold. Because it is not as loud as many whistles, it also suits young dogs and work at shorter distances.

Using whistle signals

Keep signals simple and consistent: many trainers use a single long blast to stop or sit the dog and a series of short pips to call it in. Teach each signal close to your dog with a reward before using it at distance. The Commander’s lower pitch suits close work and young dogs, while a louder Roy Gonia Special can be kept for longer range, so handlers often carry both on a lanyard.

Good to know

Introduce the whistle with rewards so your dog links each signal with a clear command, and use the same signals every time. Rinse the mouthpiece after use.
