Pluto should be classified as a dwarf planet because it does not meet the official requirements to be considered a planet, which are:

Being in orbit around a star
Have your own gravity
Have your orbit free

What is a dwarf planet?

According to the International Astronomical Union, dwarf planets correspond to celestial bodies that orbit the sun and that have enough mass to have their own gravity, but unlike full-size planets, dwarf planets differ by not having their orbit unimpeded.

Therefore, it follows that compared to the characteristics of the full-size planets, Pluto is correctly designated as a dwarf planet.
