At first glance, it would appear that using a sheepdog whistle should be relatively easy. However, that is a great misconception. You will need to practice regularly for it to make the necessary sounds to command your dog.

How to Use a Sheepdog Whistle
Hold the tab of the whistle and then place it in your mouth. Make sure the semicircular whistle part goes against the semicircle of your lips.
Blow gently to allow air to enter the whistle through the small holes inside your mouth. You will want the air to leave your mouth through the two pieces of plastic between your lips.
Direct the air flow with your tongue on the back of the whistle.
Practice using the whistle by playing tunes on it. By hitting the same notes consistently on your whistle and blowing along with a song, you are ready to try it out on your dog. If you cannot repeat or replicate notes and songs, it's best to keep practicing before using it to command your dog.
