This is simply because dogs can hear at frequencies higher than the human hearing range, which stops, as previously stated, at around 20kHz. If the pitch of a dog whistle is set above that frequency then a dog will be able to hear it where a human will not. There are some sources ...
Let’s break this down so we can understand the canine hearing range and find out what they can hear but we can’t. Sound Frequency Have you ever heard the riddle about the tree falling in the forest? If no one is around to hear it, does it really make a sound? The answer is yes...
these calls tend to share similar acoustic structures, but not necessarily frequency range, raising the question of their interspecific communicative potential. As domestic dogs are highly responsive to human emotional cues and experience stress when hearing human cries, we explore whether their ...
I found one more item that had a constant, quiet, high-frequency sound in the human hearing range plus sounds in the ultrasound range. These sounds were coming from a battery charger for a Dremel tool (8220). It put out an audible tone at 6,000 Hz, and harmonics (mathematically related...
If your dog gets injured or distressed, hearing the dog sound of a yelp helps others react positively to the communication. By signaling to the group, your dog is telling you that he’s been hurt and either needs care or is warning you to take caution and proceed further. It’s also...

Dogs bark frequently and use them in a wider range of contexts than their close relatives the wolf12,13 and coyote12, and the barks seem to have evolved from the low-frequency barks of wolves, which are mainly produced during agonistic interactions14. Barks changed quantitatively and ...
Although some experimental studies report that they exclude dogs with impaired sensory function (Rosado et al., 2012a), routine veterinary examinations do not usually include specific testing for myopia or reduced hearing range. The narrowing of perceptual skills (affecting in parallel multiple senses)...
However, while dogs can hear those "silent" dog whistles that you can't, high-frequency sounds don't carry as far or pass through objects, so they're only useful in limited situations. Dogs can pick their name out of background noise, but not as well as people can Page Light Studios...
