A doggy daycare in the U.K. recreated the nativity scene with their adorably behaved pooches.

The staff at Daycare 4 Dogs in South Manchester, England, dressed up the obedient dogs interested in partaking in the project and posed the pets in front of a custom-built stable — complete with a pup peeping out of the manger.

The photoshoot took place in the dog daycare’s sandpit. The 12 dogs posed patiently for the camera on December 9. The daycare’s patient pooches also dressed as Santa and his reindeer for a different snapshot.

Daycare 4 Dogs owner Emma Billington said the ‘iconic’ nativity picture proves how incredible her staff and the dogs are — and she hopes it spreads some much-needed festive cheer.

“We challenge the dogs to do different things, we do this every year, but this one is by far the best,” Emma said “We practice year-round, it’s not a fluke. They’re used to it, and it’s part of their daily routine,” she added.

Emma said the pet parents who own the dogs in the photos love the festive photoshoots and that customers get lots of laughs from the final product.

The dogs at the daycare, which funds independent dog rescue facility Dogs 4 Rescue, ‘amaze’ the facility’s owner daily.

“There’s nothing more joyous than spending that day with the dogs and seeing them do their different things,” Emma said. “It’s just about seeing them being happy. Our motto is ‘make dogs’ lives better,’ and that’s what we strive for every day.”

“They’re so clever and capable, they teach us every day,” she added.
