"Whistle works well, adjusting it can be easy, but the loudness and easy to blow. Not a silent whistle, strong construction. Had very positive experiences with Chewy’s customer service."

β€” Tyler

"Its very loud and it does not fit the silent whistle category at all. Whe have had a lot of other silent whistles from Chewy and this one is the worst. I also find it to easy to push the valve and let the air escape. Please don't buy. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!"
