Toy Group Breeds
In general, kennel clubs assign small breeds that are primarily kept as companions and pets to their Toy Group. Some kennel clubs prefer to use the category Companion Group for small and medium-sized dogs kept primarily as pets, and do not recognise a Toy Group. Other kennel clubs group small dogs with large dogs of the same type, or in the Utility Group or Non-Sporting Group.
