It’s the most wonderful time of the year…but adorable dogs that can do tricks and dance across a stage make it all a bit more wonderful, as you’ll see in Monday’s America’s Got Talent: Holiday Spectacular.

If you’re a fan of the long-running NBC competition series, you’ll recognize the Olate Dogs and Richard and Nicholas Olate, the father-son duo who train them. The act won won the competition—and a million dollars—in the show’s seventh season back in 2012.

As you’ll see in the clip below from the 2-hour holiday special, judges Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum and Mel B are as charmed as the audience with the flips, tricks and overall cuteness of the dogs. But will the adorable pooches spread enough holiday cheer to get a standing ovation from our panel of judges?

America’s Got Talent: Holiday Spectacular airs Monday at 8/7c on NBC.
