By now, you've probably seen a YouTube video showing a dog eating with human hands.

This one, posted by Freshpet, puts all of those other videos to shame.

The pet food company got 13 dogs and one cat together at the holiday table to enjoy a hilariously cute feast.

The animals got dressed in festive attire and were told to be on their best behavior. But just like what happens at many human family holiday dinners, some of the pets got a little out of control.

The obvious teen of the group was caught playing on his cell phone.

Another teen doggie decided the dinner table was a good place to reapply makeup.

Grandpa doggie had a little too much wine.

And then there's the inappropriate mistletoe, that aunt who likes to steal silverware and dear old dad (the cat in this case) who is clearly not amused with everyone else.

Freshpet says all the animals in the video are rescue pets at the Humane Society of Utah. The two teams were brought together by ShareAbility, a Utah-based brand agency that created the video for FreshPet. While it's obviously an advertisement for pet food, the company says it created the video to highlight how amazing rescue dogs and cats can be when you add them to your family. What's more, the company promises to pay the adoption fees for any of the animals seen in the video if someone adopts them.
