A Gold Plated Boatswain Pipe Tie Pin This miniature Boatswain Pipe was produced in the 1930s for use as part of a tie pin. It was discovered whilst working on our 150th anniversary archive project. What's more, we've tested it and it whistles! #acme #acmewhistles #boatswainpipe #boatswain #whistle #design #marine #maritimehistory #navy #navyhistory #companyhistory #heritage #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birmingham #birminghamuk #archive

Such a lovely group shot posted by @shelbeydunn on Instagram. It's fantastic to see people out in the great outdoors, working their dogs and making the most of some pleasant September weather here in the UK. #acme #acmewhistles #whistle #dogwhistle #mansbestfriend #dogtraining #dogtrainer #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birminghamuk #birmingham #211.5 #210.5

Congratulations to @seadogs1 who recently celebrated his 25th wedding anniversary with his wife Julie. They spent the day training with their dogs and putting Julie’s new anniversary gift to the test - her Solid Silver Rose Gold Dog whistle. Thanks for tagging us into your photo, we’re delighted that you had such a lovely day. #acme #acmewhistles #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogwhistle #25thanniversary #weddinganniversary #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birminghamuk #

We recently discovered a box of long forgotten whistles as part of our archive project. The ACME Thunderer 060 was the smallest and highest pitched in the original range of Thunderers. There were three basic types, the big 058, the medium 059 and the small 060, each characterised by a square mouthpiece. During the 1920s, a parallel but complimentary range of metal Thunderers was introduced with a tapered mouthpiece. The 58.5, the 59.5 and the 60.5. Over time, the tapered mouthpieces became the most popular and by the 1950s the square mouthpiece range of original Thunderers was cut to just one - the 058, that remains in production to this day and is pictured on the right. On the left, is the long forgotten ACME Thunderer 060, discovered whilst working on our 150th anniversary archive project. It was lovely to find this extremely well made whistle and reunite it with its older sibling for a photograph. #acme #acmewhistles #acmethunderer #1950s #archive #150years #heritage #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birminghamuk #sports #sportswhistle

You’re seeing positive results with the stop command. TIme to turn your attention to retrieval. This third infographic details some training elements for you to consider. Labradors and Retrievers love distance recall. The 211.5 is recommended for this type of work. Blow a series of ‘pips’ with your whistle to instruct your dog to recall. Maintain an emphasis on fun, for both you and your dog, and always resist the temptation to over train. As with the stop command, patience and consistent practice will deliver positive results. If you are looking for advice on selecting a suitable whistle then please get in touch as we are always happy to help. Good luck! #acmewhistles #acmewhistle #dogwhistle #dogtrainer #dogtraining #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birminghamuk #labrador #retriever

You've introduced the whistle to your dog through positive reinforcement. Now it's time to focus on the cornerstone of any training regime - stopping on command. This, the second of our infographics, details some training elements for you to consider. Select the most suitable whistle for your breed of dog. For Spaniels the 210.5 is recommended. Use a firm concise blow on your whistle as the signal to stop. Be consistent and avoid the temptation to over train. Instead, focus on short sessions with a strong emphasis on fun for both you and your dog. With patience and consistent practice, results will follow. Good luck! #acmewhistles #acmewhistle #dogwhistle #dogtrainer #dogtraining #madeinengland #madeinbirmingham #birminghamuk #sprocker #cockerspaniel #springerspaniel #spaniel
