Footage shows the animals crossing roads and weaving along pavements while traffic and pedestrians pass by. The group moves through neighbourhood streets decorated with football imagery, turning the walk into a small tribute to the national team.

The pack is known locally as 'La Perroneta' and is led by Nahuel Meneghini, who says the idea comes from his affection for the dogs and his support for Argentina. He says the group reflects belief in a fourth World Cup title.
