Every pet parent knows that the best toys or tools aren’t always the ones bought for pets specifically. Sometimes, a little creativity (and a bit of improvisation) leads to the most hilarious outcomes. That’s exactly what happened when Milo and Kida’s owner brought home a brand-new garden tool.
While it still had the tags hanging from it, the rake wasn’t headed for the soil just yet. Instead, it found a much more important role — providing the ultimate belly scratches for two pups who couldn’t believe their luck. Their reactions? Pure, tail-wagging bliss that Instagram couldn’t resist.

With more than 12,000 likes, this clip has quickly turned into a fan favorite. The video opens with Milo and Kida halfway sprawled out on the floor, almost as if they sensed what was coming. Within seconds, both are flat on their backs, bellies up, ready for what might be the best “garden harvest” of all time.
Milo gets the first turn, and his happy tail wags nonstop as the rake glides across his belly. Kida doesn’t need any prompting — he’s already waiting his turn, paws up and eyes bright, until the rake makes its way over to him. When it does, he melts into the floor, clearly as thrilled as his sibling.
It’s the kind of video that makes you laugh out loud while also wanting to grab a rake yourself. And judging by the comments, viewers loved the creative “indoor gardening” just as much. One joked, “Looks like a beautiful harvest of couch potatoes,” while another quipped, “What kind of plants are those?”
The jokes didn’t stop there, one person even commented, “What a lovely garden! The Puppies have bloomed well this year.” The viewers are clearly having a field day with the comments. Milo and Kida may not be leafy greens, but they definitely blossomed under this scratch session.
