Here is an example of what you are talking about judge in a documented pedigree.
This dog was owned by a boy so distant relation of mine.
I don’t have dogs from this line nor do I claim any provinonce. But I have studied this and been a bulldog guy quite a minute.
This dog conditioned was 55lbs at the turn of the century. Stood at 7xw with no takers for years.
