During a time they had it the drivers of cars simón in the Brussels of the XVII century to drive away the small animals of their stables, but he/she became a company race for their charming character. The Petit Brabancon of soft hair probably owes its existence to the introduction of blood of Pug. Other races, including the Yorkshire and the Irish Terriers, they have contributed undoubtedly the modern Grifones. The Grifón of Brussels of rough hair and the Petit Brabancon of soft hair is grateful as two different races in Europe. In America and in Great Britain, nevertheless, they are exhibited together.
