To the Jews dogs were unclean animals. But, in likening the non-Jews to "little dogs," which might be kept in a home, and not to wild dogs of the street, Jesus softened the comparison. Nevertheless, what Jesus said apparently served to test the woman. Humbly, she acknowledged: "Yes, Lord; but really the little dogs do eat of the crumbs falling from the table of their masters." Her words reflected great faith, and therefore, her daughter was healed.-Mt 15:21-28; Mr 7:24-30.

Also:

The parable of "Lazarus and the Rich Man" incorporates these features:

"...there was a certain beggar named Lazarus... desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores..." (Luke 16:20-21).
