I put that into Google Translate and it said "bandog". It made me grumpy. "Bandog? What the fuck is that shit, Google Translate?" - I said to myself. It turns out that bandog is an English word.

bandog A dog bred for its strength and ferocity by crossing aggressive breeds. Etymology: Middle English (originally denoting a dog kept on a chain or "band"): from band^1 + dog.
