Butch the Bulldog is a character created by The Walt Disney Company in 1940. He appears mainly as Pluto's arch nemesis. Butch first appeared in the Pluto cartoon "Bone Trouble" where Pluto tried to steal his bone. Ever since then Butch has been antagonizing Pluto. Sometimes Butch competes with Pluto for the affections of Dinah the Dachshund. At one point, Butch even antagonized Figaro in the cartoon "Figaro and Frankie". Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, Hunky, Fifi the Peke, Ronnie the St. Bernard Puppy, and Figaro the kitten are all familiar with Butch. In the Disneyland episode "Donald's Award", he antagonized Donald Duck because of the cat puppet he uses to distract Pluto.
