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] By mid 1914, she had moved to join her sisters in the Fifth Destroyer Flotilla, based in the Mediterranean.

Lieutenant-Commander William B. Mackenzie commanded her while she covered the landings at Anzac Cove in Gallipoli on 25 April, 1915.[8]

On 28 July, 1915, Rattlesnake collided with Bulldog. Vice-Admiral of the Eastern Mediterranean de Robeck considered that Rattlesnake was at fault.[9]

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.[10]

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.[11]

In October, 1917, Bulldog joined the Second Destroyer Flotilla, then a part of the Northern Division, Coast of Ireland Station, operating out of Buncrana. She remained there for a little over a half year. In May of 1918 when she moved to the Fourth Destroyer Flotilla which was operating out of Devonport under orders of the Commander-in-Chief, Devonport.
