I'd fill a box (or kiddie pool) with packing peanuts, then lay a thick plastic sheet (trash can liner) over the surface and press the wheel into it until it forms a plastic lined bowl the right size. Take care not to puncture the plastic with the axle, of course. Then fill with OA. Try not tot let the dog drink from it, unless you're planning to replace the dog anyway.
