Outdoor z-wave motion sensor - Zooz Z-Wave Plus S2 Outdoor Motion Sensor ZSE29.
A much better solution is to truly automate your dog. That is, train him to press a doggy door bell (I don't have this brand). I have something like this and trained our dog to press the door bell button to go out, and another one outside to come back in. Sometimes he gets impatient and whacks the outdoor button over and over till you let him in. It causes quite a stir in the house. LOL. I went to Home Depot and got some round wood pieces and some rubber stick on feet to mount the door buttons to so they sit flat. But others mount them on the wall.
Lots of dog doors out there. But if you get one make sure it is one with an electronic lock (the dog wears an rfid tag or something). That way only the dog can come through the door. I have had stray cats come right through dog doors. And we had possum checking out the door once, although he didn't come in.
Wyze cam is good if you can point it out a window. I think they are too fragile to mount outside. And, a bug flying by will set it off. A clouds shadow passing by will set it off also.

The zooz outdoor motion sensors can be hard wired.

I use those + z-wave switches on my outside lights. It's only 100deg though.
