The Bestia Dog Sport FirePaw Phoenix Gen 10 is a smart training system for working and sport dogs: a manual slatmill your dog drives, paired with the FirePaw App that records every run. No motor sets the pace. Your dog does. The optional Smart Sensor turns each session into numbers you can track. FirePaw builds these slatmills for Bestia Dog Sport at their workshop in Europe, and our team configures and supports every one.
Measure the conditioning you used to guess
Add the FirePaw Smart Sensor and the free FirePaw App shows you, on your phone:
- Live speed, while your dog runs
- Distance covered in each workout
- Workout duration
- Average speed
- Maximum speed
- Training history, with every session saved to review later
- Individual dog profiles, so each dog's progress is tracked separately
- Multiple FirePaw treadmills managed from one app
- Free app, with a one-time sensor purchase
Run one dog or a full kennel. Log the session, compare it to last week, and add work when the numbers say your dog is ready. See the FirePaw Smart Sensor + App.
Race pedigree, built for daily professional use
The Phoenix is a benchmark machine in dog treadmill races. Gen 10 runs on a hybrid frame: rust-resistant aluminum sides and dog holding bars on a steel bottom frame. FirePaw-designed aluminum main wheels give about 10 free spins from one hand push. Your dog speeds up, the slats spin faster. Your dog slows down, the mill slows with it.
Sprint work, steady trot, long endurance sessions. At home, in a kennel, in a training trailer.

Why a slatmill
A slatmill only moves when the dog moves, so the dog controls effort and pace. That makes it a natural fit for sprint work, conditioning in bad weather and structured sessions you can measure on the speed computer or in the FirePaw App. FirePaw slatmills are built for professional daily use, and many owners bolt the frame to the floor of a gym or trailer for extra stability.

Common Questions
Q: What is the difference between a slatmill and a motorized dog treadmill?
A: A slatmill has no motor, so the dog powers the belt and sets the speed, while a motorized treadmill drives the belt at a speed you choose.
Q: What size dog is the FirePaw Phoenix Gen 10 for?
A: It is built for medium, large and working breeds, and for dogs over 110 lb (50 kg) we recommend adding the plastic running belt.
Q: What does the FirePaw App track?
A: With the Smart Sensor fitted, the free app shows live speed, distance, workout duration, average and maximum speed, saved training history and a separate profile for each dog.
Q: Does the FirePaw App need a subscription?
A: No, the FirePaw App is free and the Smart Sensor is a one-time purchase.
Q: Can one app run several dogs and treadmills?
A: Yes, each dog gets its own profile and one app manages multiple compatible FirePaw treadmills, including the Mini Mill.
Q: Who builds the FirePaw treadmills?
A: FirePaw builds every Bestia Dog Sport mill to order at their workshop in Europe, and our team configures and supports it.
Q: How long is the warranty?

Q: How is the treadmill delivered?
A: It is built to order in Europe and shipped direct to your door by DHL Express, and we email your build and delivery timeline after you order.
Q: How heavy is it and can one person move it?
A: The shipping weight is about 190 lb (86 kg), and the mobility wheels and handles let one person roll it into place.
Q: Can the slatmill be fixed to the floor?
A: Yes, the frame can be bolted to a gym or trailer floor for extra stability, and we are happy to talk through your setup.
Q: How do I get my dog used to a slatmill?
A: Start with the brake on or a hand on the belt, let the dog stand and walk a few steps with rewards, and keep the first sessions to a few minutes.
Q: Is a slatmill loud?
A: It runs with a steady rolling sound, and the optional plastic running belt and FirePaw running wheels make it quieter.
Q: Does it need electricity?
A: No, the slatmill is fully manual and only the small speed computer runs on its own battery.
Q: Which options should I add?
A: Most first-time owners add the braking system for training starts and the Smart Sensor to track progress, and dogs over 110 lb (50 kg) should add the plastic running belt.
