Dogs and summer go hand in hand, and nothing screams the season quite like enjoying a refreshing treat on a warm day. Two Italian Greyhound dogs have taken Instagram by storm with their hilariously adorable way of munching on a watermelon. If you love cute pups and relaxing sounds, this is the ultimate ASMR moment!
Dogs flaunt their ‘teefs’ while enjoying watermelon in viral video
The now-viral video features Nola and Sprout, two Italian Greyhounds, joyfully indulging in juicy slices of watermelon. Shared by Instagram user @nolatheiggy, the clip captures their hilariously exaggerated chewing expressions as they savor every bite. Their comical faces and clear delight in the refreshing snack have also drawn attention to their impressively white teeth — or “teefs,” as fans like to call them. To top it off, the crisp, rhythmic crunch of the watermelon adds an oddly satisfying ASMR-like effect that makes you want to replay the video over and over again.
Since its upload on March 14, the reel has quickly gained traction, amassing over 855K likes and more than 2.1K comments. Fans can’t get enough of Nola and Sprout’s silly yet endearing expressions as they munch on watermelon. Many joked about their relatable love for the snack, with comments like “Mmm, delicious watermelon, Mum!” and “That focused look says it all — watermelon is serious business!” Others couldn’t help but admire their adorable “teefs,” while one commenter hilariously compared them to the acorn-obsessed squirrel, Scrat, from “Ice Age,” writing, “You were brilliant in the Ice Age movies!”
While Nola and Sprout clearly love their watermelon, too much can lead to an upset stomach. Luckily, when given in moderation, watermelon is a safe and hydrating treat for dogs. It’s low in calories and rich in vitamins A, B6, and C, making it a nutritious summer snack. Before offering it to your pup, though, be sure to remove the seeds and avoid the rind, as these parts can be difficult to digest and potentially harmful. A few small, seedless bites are the perfect way to let your dog enjoy this refreshing treat safely.
