Added some info from comments by jkej, Edward.
Feb 10 at 20:16 comment added Edward Whistles are totally unlike brass instruments. If this information applied to whistles, dog whistles could not be used by humans.

Feb 9 at 19:42 comment added jkej I would think that the physics of whistling is quite different from the physics of brass instruments. In reed instruments you have a vibrating reed, in brass instruments your lips are the reeds, but in recorders and flutes the air itself (or its flow) is the reed. Anyone who has tried to play these types of instruments knows that you apply a much higher pressure to a trumpet than to a recorder, even for playing the same note. There are many types of whistling, but I would think that most of them are more like playing a recorder than a trumpet.
