%%* Spike and his son, Tyke, from ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry''. Inverted when Spike [[PapaWolf only acts tough when defending his son]], or Tom clearly started the fight, which [[CatsAreMean often he does]] (and isn't always setting out to). %%Example needs explanation to make sense on its own.

It degenerates into a rivalry when their owner says one of them must go.

* In the ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' games, Snubbull and Granbull are basically bipedal bulldogs. Both tend to be callous bullies (although in Snubbull's case, they are actually affectionate, much like real bulldogs, and act mean to hide their cowardice), with their most common ability being Intimidate. Funnily enough, Snubbulls are also popular pets among fashion conscious young women -- and as of Gen VI, they're both pure [[TheFairFolk Fairy types]].

While their most common ability being Intimidate.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 [[TheFairFolk Fairy types]].

* Muggshot from ''VideoGame/SlyCooper'' series is a [[DumbMuscle super-tough]] NighInvulnerable {{Jerkass}} with [[DualWielding two gigantic Tommy guns]] -- definitely not a nice guy. Ironically, his FreudianExcuse is that ''he'' was bullied as a child.

''TabletopGame/FraidyCats'' is a RollAndMove game where the gimmick is that a motorized bulldog roams the board hunting for the players' cat tokens, which he'll send flying if he bumps into the fencepost they're standing on. Later editions {{Bowdlerize}} the vicious bulldog into an UglyCute, [[TheKlutz clumsy]] pug
