Acme, Metropolitan Whistle, Nickel Plated
The Acme Metropolitan Whistle is a distinctive, professional dog training whistle designed for gun dog handlers who demand power, consistency, and tradition. Produced by the legendary Acme Whistles, this model is a modern revival of the original Scotland Yard police whistle first introduced in 1870, bringing proven performance and heritage to today’s field training.
Crafted from durable nickel-plated brass, this metal dog whistle offers exceptional strength and longevity. The solid construction stands up to rigorous gun dog training sessions, while the polished nickel finish delivers a classic, professional appearance.
Featuring a pea-less design, the Acme Metropolitan Whistle produces a clear, consistent tone that won’t clog or freeze. Its powerful sound can carry up to one mile, making it ideal for long-distance commands in open fields, upland hunting situations, and crowded hunting environments.
Widely regarded as one of the best dog whistles for gun dog training, this whistle ensures your dog responds reliably—even amid heavy background noise or multiple handlers. Its unique tone helps dogs distinguish your commands from others in the field.
Made in England and backed by over a century of craftsmanship, the Acme Metropolitan Whistle is more than a training tool—it’s a trusted standard for serious dog trainers and hunters who expect uncompromising performance.

In field practice, regular use exposes the Acme Metropolitan Whistle to mud, moisture, and handling wear. After sessions, wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly to minimize surface tarnish and maintain a clean tone. Avoid solvents or prolonged immersion that could affect the finish. Periodically check the air path for debris and clear it as needed to preserve a clear, consistent tone during long-distance commands. When not in use, carry in a protective pouch or case to shield from impact during transport. In training for waterfowl retrieval or upland drills, consistent practice with standard whistle cues helps maintain signal distinction in crowded fields or during multi-handler sessions. With proper care, the whistle remains ready for long days in the field and tough weather.
