This trope is prevalent in (but not exclusive to) old cartoons from the 1940s as both Warner Bros. and MGM had a surfeit of bulldog characters. Generally they were vicious guard dogs or bullies, especially toward cats and smaller dogs. Since a lot of the examples are in cartoons and because of the stubby snout and large jowls, the bulldog was probably used where they wanted what Preston Blair called the "Heavy Pugnacious Character". In many cases, the breed's characteristic features are exaggerated—for example, the lower teeth that protrude slightly from the mouth in many bulldogs may be depicted as full-on tusks like those of a pig. Bulldogs being vicious and short-tempered is a Dead Horse Trope now since bulldogs were vicious many years ago when they were still bred to fight Brutish Bulls for sport, hence the name. When this sport was outlawed, bulldogs had their viciousness bred out of them so they could be kept as pets. It's reflected in fiction, too: Modern "mean dogs" are almost always Rottweilers, Pit Bull breeds, Doberman Pinschers, German Shepherds, and Chihuahuas. Almost Always Male. Subtrope of Dog Stereotype. Compare Psycho Poodle, another breed-specific trope. Contrast Big Friendly Dog. |

Subverted in the Halloween sequence in the movie Meet Me in St. Louis. When Tootie has to "Kill the Braukoffs," another child protests, "The Braukoffs have a fierce bulldog! She'll be torn to pieces!" After Tootie throws flour into Mr. Braukoff's face to "kill" him, the bulldog is seen quietly and unconcernedly snuffling up the flour rather than noticing Tootie at all. | |

Spike and his son, Tyke, from Tom and Jerry. Inverted when Spike only acts tough when defending his son, or Tom clearly started the fight, which often he does (and isn't always setting out to). Many times, such as in "Hiccup Pup", Tom's recklessness in chasing Jerry causes Spike some form of ire, but at least one cartoon, "Pet Feud," starts off with them as pals. It degenerates into a rivalry when their owner says one of them must go. | |

Rudolf the Black Cat: Devil the English Bulldog is the closest thing to an antagonist. He taunts Gottalot for having been abandoned by his owner and almost kills him when he comes asking for a favor.

Looney Tunes: The unnamed bulldog in "Chow Hound" repeatedly bullies a cat and mouse into getting him food, and beats them up when they don’t, claiming they forgot the gravy. He gets what he deserves at the end of the short when he overeats and winds up in a hospital, and the cat and mouse force feed him gravy. Spike, in all of his appearances looked and acted like a tough guy, even down to wearing a bowler hat. He also acted very rudely and aggressively even towards his fawning toady Chester, shouting at him and hitting him to shut him up. Nonetheless, he did care about his opinion saving face in front of him, when against apparently Sylvester (who in truth was either an escaped panther or the Mister Hyde version of Sylvester). He wasn't so tough with them. Hector. Most of the time his role consisted of presenting a physical protection of Tweety from Sylvester whom he effortlessly beat up. Many times though this seemed to be an excuse rather than the reason, making him more of a Heroic Comedic Sociopath. Subverted with Marc Anthony from Feed the Kitty, who turns out to be a completely nice and kind dog, though not unless he has to deal with Claude. |

Donald Duck comics have this in almost every issue. Normally it's someone climbing a fence just to notice he's landed on the bulldog territory. This is a stock scene, and is sometimes parodied. It might not be a bulldog, but an equally vicious poodle for instance, or even if the dog is just a sleeping puppy, the character is terrified. | |

Discussed in Doglands. Kinnear, a soft and lazy English bulldog, talks about how bulldogs were once vicious bull-fighters, but the aggression has been bred out of them to make them placid and "perfect" pets.

In the Pokémon games, Snubbull and Granbull are basically bipedal bulldogs, but they are subversions. While their most common ability is Intimidate, they look very menacing (especially Granbull with its gigantic fangs), and they can be dangerous when provoked, Snubbull is quite affectionate and friendly, and feels sad when its looks cause other Pokémon to flee. Its Ultra Moon entry states that it is actually often bullied when playing with other Pokémon. Granbull is actually more timid than Snubbull, and it's said to be a lacklustre watchdog for that reason. Funnily enough, Snubbulls are also popular pets among fashion conscious young women — and as of Gen VI, they're both pure Fairy types. | |

She brings one of them named Ripper, which has some nasty implications, when she visits the Dursleys, who used to chase Harry around when he was ten.

In the novel White Fang, the wolf fights a bulldog in a dogfight. Cherokee the bulldog subverts this trope because he is described as neither vicious or bullying: "Cherokee did not seem anxious to fight. He turned his head and blinked at the men who shouted, at the same time wagging his stump of a tail good-naturedly. He was not afraid, but merely lazy." He's more an instance of Killer Rabbit with a side Implacable Man, calmly wearing White Fang down to the strangling point. | |
