Toy Poodle. :-P
Another fun example is a Lhasa Apso. A watchdog, yes. Fighting dog, no.

You do not breed toys to fight
It may have been bred from a fighting dog. But the breed that we now have was not bred to fight, it was bred to be a toy. Hence my point.
As for the Lhasa Apso, [link|http://www.animalforum.com/dbreed/nslhasa.htm|http://www.animalfor...breed/nslhasa.htm] suggests that they are not toy dogs. They are guard dogs. However as anyone who has seen the breed knows, they won't take down intruders, but no intruder will pass unnoticed by anyone within earshot. So my understanding is that the breed is not bred to fight, only to alert people that there is an intruder.
Cheers, Ben
