Pluto follow the orbit rules for motion around the sun. Hence it performs planetary motion. It is smaller than a full planet. Therefore it is a dwarf planet.
If a celestial object does not orbit the Sun than is not a planet. Pluto does not fall into this category.
There is a cartoon character called Pluto which is a dog.

A dwarf planet. And its not just the small size that got it down graded (look at Mercury, still a planet), Pluto's orbit is out of line with the rest of the planets.

Technically, Pluto the astral body. It became right here first. traditionally, Pluto the god, followed through: Pluto the planet: 1930 Pluto the Disney canine: first drawn in 1930, yet no longer formally named Pluto until eventually quite a few years later. of direction, Pluto the caricature became in all likelihood on the drafting board in the previous the reputable discovery of Pluto the planet.
