we have a 12 week old cockapoo
am thinking of getting a doggy cam - we really need to start leaving him home alone soon.
it would also be useful at night, he is a 5am riser at the moment.

Does anyone have one to recommend, ideally one that can be accessed from their phone?

TIA

I use this app:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tappytaps.android.dogmonitor&hl=en_GB

You can install it on your phone and on another device like an old phone or chromebook/ tabet etc - use that as the 'dog station' pointed at the area that the dog is in, and use your phone as the 'person station'.

I use an ieGeek camera which was relatively cheap from amazon. Still going strong and my dog is 4 this year.

You can listen and watch in real time from an app on your phone and can tilt and pan the camera to follow him round the room.

How long are u leaving him for. 12 weeks is far to early to be leaving a puppy.

It totally depends how long for surely. If safely and happily crated a 12 week old puppy would be perfectly fine for a bit.
