In Sooty Heights he appeared in two episodes, once as a guard dog and secondly as a pantomime. In the series entitled Sooty, Butch became a main character and appeared in almost every episode, but with a few slight redesigns to look more like a bulldog with his mouth being reskined to yellow, 2 large bucked teeth and a patch in the right eye in Series 1, in Series 2 and 3 he was redesigned again with patch for his right eye being removed and his bucks of teeth became smaller.
He then appeared in The Big Day Out feature-length special as a judge in a talent contest. Butch is the main 'baddie'. In the Sooty & Co. series he was an evil pirate in Matthew's dream and in The Sooty Show he appeared as a rival to Superdog (Sweep). In The Dance Competition, Butch was one of the judges.
