{"product_id":"acme-classic-whistle-210-5-all-breed-gundog-training","title":"ACME Classic Whistle 210.5","description":"\u003cp\u003eBefore the Alpha, there was this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ACME Classic 210.5 has been in the hands of gundog handlers for generations. Not because nobody's come up with anything better - they have, and it's good. But because this one works. It always has. Ultra-high pitch, no pea, solid single frequency. You blow it, your dog hears it. That's the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery retailer out there will tell you this whistle is \"suggested for spaniels.\" And yes, the 210.5 frequency suits spaniels well - high pitch, close work, fast reactions. But at Kirkbourne, we recommend it for any breed. Labrador, Cocker, Springer, Vizsla - doesn't matter. What matters is that the frequency is consistent, your dog learns it, and you stick to it. Pick a whistle, train with it, don't swap halfway through. Simple as that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Classic is pea-less - nothing inside it to freeze up, rattle, or stick in wet weather. It produces a solid, single, high-frequency tone. It's frequency standardised, meaning every 210.5 Classic sounds the same. Lose it on a shoot, buy another, your dog hears the same signal. No retraining. Sorted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs it the Alpha? No. The Alpha's got the patented sound chambers, the comfort grip, the 17% extra range. If you want the premium version, we've got that too. But if you want the whistle that's trained more gundogs than probably anything else in the UK, the one that does what it says without any fuss - this is it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost problems I see on the training field aren't about the whistle. They're about the handler. But you can't fix the handler with the wrong kit. Start with this one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kirkbourne Gundog Supplies","offers":[{"title":"Hot Pink","offer_id":54987002970455,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Baby Blue","offer_id":54987003003223,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kharki Green","offer_id":54987003035991,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Orange","offer_id":54987003068759,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Snorkel Blue","offer_id":54987003101527,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Purple","offer_id":54987003134295,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":54987003167063,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Dayglow Pink","offer_id":54987003199831,"sku":null,"price":12.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1038\/4231\/6631\/files\/Acme210.5Classic.png?v=1789654693","url":"https:\/\/kirkbournegundogs.co.uk\/products\/acme-classic-whistle-210-5-all-breed-gundog-training","provider":"Kirkbourne Gundog Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
