The Griffon Bruxellois or Brussels Griffon is a breed of toy dog, named

for their city of origin: Brussels, Belgium. The Griffon Bruxellois may refer

to three different breeds, the Griffon Bruxellois, the Griffon Belge and

the Petit Brabançon. Identical in standard except for coat and colour

differences, in some standards they are considered varieties of the same

breed, much like Belgian Sheepdogs.
