Pluto is not considered a planet because if you look at the other planets it is smaller. It is also as big as a regular sized comet or asteroid. Scientists think that it was a comet that happened to get into the sun's orbit.
Most important was its eccentric orbit ... the (other) 8 planets have almost circular orbits, all of which are in approximately the same plane.
Besides, it dips inside Neptune's orbit ... no self-respecting planet crosses orbit with another.
Lastly, it seems to have lots of company as a Kipper belt object.
