The Bulldogs have yet to win a Loddon Valley Football League senior grade flag but they have flirted with success from time to time, including losing grand final appearances in 2008 against Calivil United and 2011 versus Bridgewater. In recent seasons they have generally performed solidly, and when they failed to contest the finals in 2017 it was the first time this had happened in more than a decade. They resumed finals involvement in 2018 when their campaign was brought to an end in heart breaking fashion at the first semi final stage by Mitiamo. At half time the Bulldogs trailed by more than 5 goals before adding 9 second half half goals to 3 to fall short by the narrowest of margins. Over the course of a long history which has involved participation in eight different competitions Pyramid Hill has enjoyed premiership success at least ten times with some records being difficult to trace.
