Casual Bulldog With Glasses Sketch

Bulldog is a generic term for small to medium-sized Molossians with mostly stocky, strong stature. The ancestor is the old British Bulldog breed. The name comes from the fact that this breed was originally bred to sic them on bulls in bull biting. The ideal bull-biter was stocky, medium sized, sturdy, had a stocky body with a broad chest and tremendous strength in the neck and jaws. Other characteristic features included a large head with a heavily wrinkled foreface and rose ears. The short nose and the protruding lower jaw (pre-bite) allowed firm and long snapping without choking itself. In the 19th century the French Bulldog ('Bully') was added.

A sketch is a quickly executed freehand drawing that is not usually intended to be a finished work. A sketch can serve several purposes: It can capture something the artist sees, it can capture or develop an idea for later use, or it can serve as a quick way to graphically represent an image, idea, or principle.

Sketches can be made in any drawing medium. The term is most commonly used for graphic work done in a dry medium such as silverpoint, graphite, pencil, charcoal, or pastel. It can also refer to drawings executed with pen and ink, digital input media such as a digital pen, ballpoint pen, marker, watercolor, and oil paint. The latter two are commonly referred to as "watercolor sketches" and "oil sketches." A sculptor may model three-dimensional sketches in clay, plasticine, or wax.

The domestic dog (Canis lupus familiaris) is a domestic animal and is kept as a pet and farm animal. Its wild ancestral form is the wolf, to which it is assigned as a subspecies. When domestication occurred is disputed; scientific estimates vary from about 15,000 BCE to 100,000 years ago. In a narrower sense, a domestic dog is one that is kept predominantly indoors, and thus denotes a type of husbandry. Historically, a dog kept to guard the house was called a domestic dog. Another use of the term is to restrict it to socialized (domestic) dogs, that is, dogs that are accustomed to and adapted to living with people in human society. This differentiates the domestic dog from wild, feral, or stray dogs, which are also domesticated but not socialized. The dingo is also a domestic dog, but is provisionally listed as an independent subspecies of the wolf. The common Germanic. Pet name *hunða- (mhd., ahd. hunt) goes back to idg. k̑úu̯ō(n), gen. k̑unós "dog" and is thus related to synonymous Latin canis.
