Go on isds.org.uk and you should find most of the whistles made. Or google colliwobbles, they are a pound cheaper it seems. I have a A1 aluminium £18, Astro blaster in brass £25, and a titanium T3 £52. None of them work, I whistle and the damned dog still does what ever he wants to do.. Oh and a kangaroo leather thingy round my neck £11. All the gear no idea

I like that idea. I can never get a note out of a proper whistle, so it can't be any worse.
Dick fortune plastic (isds) good whistle/ acme plastic no good/ all metal ones give you mouth ulcers! That is benefit of 30 plus years experience of daily use.

i its when you've had them in a pocket and a coin just fits the gap and a mouth full of hayseeds and crap that's when you carn't get a tuneI like that idea. I can never get a note out of a proper whistle, so it can't be any worse.
I agree about the Fortune whistles and acme plastic whistles, I found though if you drill the centre hole out to 4mm its just the same as an old fortune one, I dont think they make fortune ones anymore do they? I've not found one for years!

if your running dogs well out on the hill from you the metal half moon is far superior for carrying a good distance. If only in parks does not really matter

grandfather used the cut the ends off so easier to put in mouth but always tie around yer neck not only to keep it handy but least yer can pull it out if yer swallow it
I can't use one to save myself be better with a postman pat one
mate just brought a new metal one and his dogs will not work with it maybe diffrent pitch or tone and dog dose not pick up on it
