THE TOY DOG GROUP LIST

The UK Kennel Club categorises breeds by their original purpose.

However, the evolution of certain dogs can lead them to be placed in a different grouping than what we would expect.

In the past, people used some of the toy dog breeds to catch vermin.

However, today they are good companion dogs, providing fun and emotional support for their owners.
