This is a dog dish for a smaller terrier. I have done others for larger dogs as well, and out of all of them i have done, this is my favorite. I found these non-mortise hinges at Home depot, and i love the look it gave(although i still had to chissel it out for the lid to shut flat). It is a dark Cherry stain on Birch Plywood, which Thompson water seal to protect, and a Low-VOC white latex paint for the body. The hinge helper is added so the lid can stay up when getting food or toys out of storage, and also so the lid doesn't slam
