Question Low-slung body
bulldog: a medium-sized dog with a thick, heavy, low-slung body. It has a large head, a short face, wide shoulders and sturdy legs.

How would you say "low-slung body" in Spanish?

¿De estatura baja? ¿Se habla de estatura en perros?

¿"cuerpo grueso, pesado, de poca altura"?

(Hay veces en que el arduo trabajo del traductor no me da ninguna envidia.)

¡Ah! Muchas gracias...

Pero, ¿"le" pegó? ¿Al perro?

Para evitar problemas de conciencia a JPablo quizás es mejor decir:
"Angélica le achuntó",¿o no?
