Petit Brabançon originates from Belgium, where they were used for hunting vermin in stables. In the creation of Brussels Griffons, many breeds took part, including Affenpinscher, Pug, and English Toy Spaniel. As time passed, these dogs were favored for their work abilities.

They were also used as pets. Both World Wars decreased the number of these dogs, and they were nearly extinct in their native land, but they were still used in England, and thanks to them, this dog breed survived.

Brussels Griffons are still a rare dog breed even today.
