There is a dog whistle that only dogs can hear because they can hear higher frequencies than humans. However, it has been found that both dogs and kids can hear, but adults can't. This is because as people age, they are not able to hear sounds above a certain frequency. The pitch, in other words, is too high for them. Being able to hear a dog whislte only means that you can hear higher frequencies.
