The modern adage that pets are like your kids may have been taken a little too far by this family in India after they held a 350-person birthday party for their pet dog.

The family from Jharkand printed out invitations, got a cake, and even had a custom Rs 4,500 dog suit for the grand birthday party.
Videos from the party show the dog being held up against a table with a cake on top while guests try to get pictures.
The dog was reportedly lavished with many gifts, including three gold lockets.
An aarti was performed before the cake-cutting ceremony for the dog.
News of the party soon went viral on social media, with some supporting the family for celebrating their pets, while others admonished them for the unnecessary spending.
