[nagdu] dog whistles

[Julie J]

Thank you!  I didn't even think of Google.  I threw the packaging away 
already.

Up to two miles is a long, long way.  the whistle I bought looks to be of 
fairly high quality, so it should have decent distance then.  I think I will 
take it easy on usage indoors.  the poor dogs are probably very annoyed with 
me about right now! *smile*

Thanks!
Julie
