Introduction: Dog Bowl Stand

About: I'm a woodworker who makes fun woodworking projects in my garage and shares them with the world!

Your dog will love this raised Dog Bowl Stand. It's easy to make with just a jig saw and a drill. Watch my video below, then click here to visit my website where you can download the free plans.

Supplies: 3/4" lumber, paint, glue, screws, nails, 2 bowls, 1 container

Tools: Drill, Jig Saw

Step 1: Get the Bowls and Container

I recommend getting the bowls and container first so you can measure them and customize the size of the stand. Cut the top, 2 sides, and 2 aprons from 3/4" lumber.

Step 2: Assemble the Stand

Assemble the stand with glue and nails or screws. Make sure it is square and sits flat without wobbling. This is a good time to paint or finish the stand, especially if you want the base and top to be different colors.

Step 3: Personalize It!

I cut out some paws from the leftover lumber and glued them onto the sides. You could cut out your dog's name or even make some small picture frames to put on the sides. Get creative!

Step 4: Feed Your Dog!

The best part is seeing how your dog likes it. Some dogs may need a little time to warm up to the switch to a raised bowl stand. They will soon get used to it and appreciate their human even more!
