H.M.S. Bulldog was one of sixteen Beagle class destroyers built for the [Royal Navy]]. There was also a gunboat named H.M.S. Bulldog launched in 1872.
Service
In mid-1913, she was part of the Third Destroyer Flotilla.[7]
Lieutenant-Commander William B. Mackenzie commanded her while she covered the landings at Anzac Cove in Gallipoli.[8]
At Suvla Bay on 6-7 August, 1915, Bulldog worked with five other Beagles and Arno to tow troop barges in. A similar effort with a smaller force placed its troops in the wrong position.[9]
When Bulldog struck a mine on 16 April, 1916, a Court of Enquiry faulted Mackenzie for not having fixed his last position the day before, but credited him for the coolness with which he dealt with the catastrophe.[10]
