Dog Biscuit Box Dilemma

I live in a very dog friendly neighborhood and when I first attached a dog biscuit box on the post just under the library, all was well. We were a very popular stop on many a walk.

Last week I began to notice that I was refilling super often, sometimes every 24 hours, and I began to think spending $50+ a month on dog cookies might not be sustainable.

I mentioned this to my neighbor who said that in her daughter’s neighborhood, critters (raccoons) had been finding a way to snack at night! And this was the case with mine too!

My dilemma is this, and maybe a super handy person can chime in:
It is the box sold on the LFL website. It is wooden with a plexiglass front, a hard composite roof and a top magnetic closure. ( that does not have a super strong hold)
Given the different materials and the need for dog walkers to open it relatively easily while holding a leash, what sort of latch would work? Would a very strong magnet keep them out? (Probably not)

You guys always have the best suggestions. TIA
