A gremlin-shaped lap dog bred to snore louder than it barks.
means A small, flat-faced, bat-eared toy-bulldog breed valued as an affectionate, low-exercise companion.
from Despite the name, its real homeland is England — lacemakers bred small 'toy bulldogs' as companions. When industrialization pushed many lacemakers to Normandy, France, in the 1800s, they brought their little bulldogs along. The breed became fashionable among French working-class and then high-society circles, local breeders favored the upright 'bat ear,' and visiting Americans and English soon associated the look with France — sending the dogs back across the Channel and Atlantic under the name 'French bulldog.'
