I just use the same metal whistle I use when I coach. I figure if I can get the attention of a bunch of 6th grade boys on the track I can surely get the attention of my dog....

Get a Fox 40 classic and you will be good to go.

I doubt it matter's to the dog. I use plastic, don't recall where it came from. Used to have Roy Gonia's with the removable side plate, loved them. Had two, one with the pea in and one pea out. Watch out for the metal one's. They can get sticky when it's really cold out.

SLarge Acme Thunderer for pointing dog

Small Roy Gonia for flushers

Both for retrievers

So I have them both on the same lanyard.

I have a few Acme Thunderers. They are cheap where I buy my collars. Which are also cheap.

I found my Acme Thunderer today, I knew all I needed to do was order one and I would find the one I lost!
