In the United States, the term "pigs in a blanket" often refers to hot dogs, Vienna sausages, or breakfast/link sausages wrapped in biscuit dough, pancake, or crescent-roll dough, and baked. A common variation is to slit the hot dog or sausage and stuff it with cheese before wrapping in dough. The dough is sometimes homemade, but canned dough is most common
hot dogs wrapped in some sort of dough and then backed.
i usually see crescent rolls used and the mini hot dogs or sausages.

regular link sausages in pan cakes (hot cakes, griddle cakes... Whatever you call them) or mini sausages in biscuits.
I think of the little cocktail weenies wrapped in dough and then baked
In the US pigs in blankets are basically mini hot dogs cooked in dough or pastry.
Here in the UK, they are mini sausages wrapped in streaky bacon [which personally, I find more appealing than the American version!] Yummy!
