Acme 576 Shepherds lip whistle - black plastic

Introducing the Acme 576 Shepherds lip whistle - black plastic

The Acme Shepherds lip dog whistle produces a widely varying and easily controlled range of pitches. This has made it popular at sheep dog trials, and in many ways it is the ultimate whistle for precise communication with your dog.

Terrific for trainers

Sometimes called the Shepherd’s lip whistle, it was made famous by the television program, One Man and His Dog. This professional whistle model enables the dog trainer to create a tremendous variety of sounds at different volumes.

How to play the Shepherds lip whistle

Unlike other Acme whistles, this one actually fits inside your mouth when you play it. Simply place it gently on your tongue, without biting. Rest your lips around the sides to seal them, but leave a gap at the front of your mouth. Blow forwards and the sound will come naturally. You can control volume and pitch by changing the amount of air you put through the whistle.

Hand made in the UK

To this day Acme police whistles are manufactured in Birmingham using the original techniques and machinery from the 1800s. Outstanding craftsmanship and strict quality testing ensure every whistle is of the highest standard.
