This is not true. There are two types of whistles. One which does nothing
(except waking monsters) and another which has an obvious effect (you will find
out). There is however a way to train your dog. You can throw away an arrow,
let your dog fetch it, throw it away again etc. The effect of this is that your
dog will stay closer to you for a certain amount of moves. When you have got
one or more tripe rations, he will stay closer to you as well.
