Read full description

Measure every run on your dog's treadmill. Firepaw reads a Bluetooth speed sensor on the treadmill's roller and shows your dog's speed and distance live, and whether they're walking, trotting or running. Then it keeps the whole story: history, progress, goals and personal bests. Made for owners, trainers, canine rehab professionals and competition organizers who work dogs on slatmills and carpet mills. LIVE SESSIONS • Live speed, distance and time, and whether your dog is walking, trotting or running • The clock starts on your dog's first step, not while you're still getting them on the belt • Keeps recording when you switch apps or lock the screen • Run several dogs at once, each on its own treadmill with its own sensor INSIGHTS AFTER EVERY RUN • A plain-language summary: how long your dog walked, trotted and ran, and how often they stopped • Speed chart with walk, trot and run zones and the session average • Longest stretch, best 60 seconds, and estimated energy burned once you've added your dog's weight PROGRESS OVER TIME • Every session, day by day • Weekly distance chart, trends and training streaks • Personal bests: longest distance, longest session, fastest minute, biggest week • Weekly distance goals with a progress ring DOG PROFILES • Breed, age, fitness level, health notes and training goals • Weight tracked over time on a simple chart SHARE WITH YOUR TEAM • Give co-owners, trainers or vets access to a dog, each at the level they need • Let access expire on a date, or keep older sessions private • Hand a dog's profile over to its owner with a one-time code COMPETITIONS • Timed runs that start on the dog's first step and stop themselves • Rank dogs by distance or top speed; each dog's best run counts • Enter any dog by name: competitors don't need the app • Continue a competition on another phone, and share or save the results as a PDF WORKS ANYWHERE • No signal at the barn or the venue? Everything is saved on your phone and uploads when you're back online • Kilometers or miles, kilograms or pounds • No ads and no third-party analytics WHAT YOU NEED • A dog treadmill: a slatmill or carpet mill • A standard Bluetooth cycling speed sensor on the treadmill's roller, set to speed mode. Firepaw is built and tested with the Coospo BK9S • A one-time calibration: enter your roller's diameter • A Firepaw account
