I like it....  Mine is just a 4x4 box inside a old goat shed set on concrete. 28" tall with a square cut door opening in front. No side door, but I really like the side door thinking.  I had a 6" lip on the bottom of  the door to hold the pups in. I ended up putting a ramp on the outside because when the pups got to 4 weeks old they began to climb out. The ramp just made it easier for them to go back in box.  I used a regular heat lamp with a 60 watt light bulb and it made it plenty warm. I also just hung a little fabric over the door to help hold in the heat.

again good job. Looks great.
