      I did! I hadn't composed in a while and it just kinda spilled out of me. I finished it all in just a few hours, there are a few places I'd go back and improve or extend, but I'm quite happy with it.

  • @virginiaconnor8350

    I got one, but couldn't find the instructions how to use it. Was it assumed we knew already? I'd would've loved to use one, even if was just for a walkie to my Tess's favourite park or a walkie around the neighbourhood. Blowing it in Petco or PetSmart might be confusing or annoying to other dogs.

    Well, here I got the whistle and thought I could start using it right away... to my frustration, I couldn't get any sound and thought it was broke. Thanks for your explanation and now I just have to practice. Who knew this is requiring to actually learn an "instrument"!

    Great advice. Just a tip, it would be easier to focus on your message if you stopped walking around, it's very distracting. I'm keen to get started with my whistle in the car though, thanks!

    Can I just say I miss your videos a lot and I sure hope you're still training and doing well, the world needs more really good dog trainers that do it for the passion and well being of dogs not just for the money, now days I mostly train for free helping rescues but it is my passion and thanks yo you I finally started learning the hearding whistle so thank you!!!

  • @patrickbourque6864
    @patrickbourque6864 Před 2 lety

    thank gawd you didn’t have a music background distracting from your message. but this constant mouvement of the background and walking sound were just as bad & stressful. any distraction does not facilitat the brings the student’s attention span elsewhere than grasping the new concepts of your tutorial. also very good that you didn’t have the display other distractions commonly dished out on youtube, like ah, eu, mmm, nnn, you c, you kno, etc. ad nauseum. i’ll have to view again n try to better grasp your message

    lol I finally got a sound and my dog immediately jumped up to see what was doing! Planning to use this at work at Starbase. My dog can't be off leash, or he'll be gone, though I did train him to turn left/right with regular mouth generated whistles on leash.

    Would a metal one work better then a plastic one?

    • @halfmoonssky
      @halfmoonssky Před 3 lety

      Some people believe metal is a clearer tone that will travel further, I haven't noticed a difference, most of the people that I train with just use plastic ones. I think people just want to justify a more expensive purchase. The metal ones are very pretty, but they're freezing cold to put on in the morning. In the end to try out a bunch and see what you like. Even the metal ones aren't super expensive. But you can get everything done you want to do with a plastic one.

      @paulcapel5251 Před 3 lety

      Michael McManus thank you for your kind reply. I’ve been trying for ages as I can’t use my fingers to whistle lol. But I’ll keep trying with the plastic one and see how long it takes me. Thank you again.

    • @halfmoonssky
      @halfmoonssky Před 3 lety

      @@paulcapel5251 I get it, it took me a long time to learn how to use my fingers. But I can do it now. Maybe I should make a tutorial on how to use your fingers. It's a lot easier to start with a plastic whistle and then use your fingers later
