MARY REICHARD, HOST: Thirteen Argentina soccer fans are roaming the streets of Buenos Aires in matching jerseys, proudly wearing the national blue and white. Some even sporting superstar Lionel Messi’s kit.

And all thirteen on leashes!

Dog walker Nano Meneghini has turned his daily pack into World Cup supporters. Each leash has three rivets—one for each of Argentina’s World Cup titles.

Meneghini says he's hoping to add a fourth in a couple weeks.

The pack has become a local sensation. And win or lose, Meneghini says the dogs will keep wearing Argentina's jerseys.

No shame in running with the pack.

It’s The World and Everything in It.
