The World Cup: It's a dog-eat-dog tournament.

That's probably the inspiration behind the artwork produced by Life on White Creative which dreamed up a lineup of 17 dogs that are identified with specific countries participating in Brazil 2014.

What's so novel about that? They dressed the animals up in that nation's jersey (SEE THE FULL LINEUP HERE).

Too bad they were 15 short. But we'll take what we can get.

Which of the 17 would emerge as the top dog in a World Cup for dogs? It has to be Russia's Siberian husky, right? Would the USA's American Staffordshire terrier even have a chance?
