If the
dog you saw was short, stocky and probably wrinkly then it was an

English
Bulldog.



The AKC recognizes said breed simply as the "Bulldog".

I'd imagine a dog show on TV was probably an AKC show.


You're right but the term "English" is generally used in reference (in order
to specify difference) to that type of Bulldog where as the American Bulldog
is totally different and goes by either "American" or just "Bulldog". I
think the AKC should recognize that there are different types of Bulldogs
even if they're not willing to specify the other types.
