Dwarf Bulbears are enemies in both Pikmin games. Like the Dwarf Bulborbs, the Dwarf Bulbear is a miniature version of a larger Grub-dog, in this case a Spotty Bulbear, but this creature is unique in that it is actually the young of said large Grub-dog, whereas Dwarf Bulborbs are different animals entirely which simply mimic the appearance of their large doppelgangers.
Pikmin 1
In Pikmin 2, Dwarf Bulbears are essentially stronger versions of Dwarf Bulborbs. They have about three times as much health and are able to stand more than one Pikmin thrown directly on top of it. Other than that, there really are no huge differences. Dwarf Bulbears will still shriek when aggravated to alert any Spotty Bulbears in the vicinity.
Pikmin 2
The Spotty Bulbear's behavior changes much in Pikmin 2, and so too does that of the Dwarf Bulbear. Spotty Bulbears roam the map in search of food rather than sleeping, and if they come near a pack of Dwarf Bulbears, the tiny creatures will yip and follow their parent. A group of Dwarf Bulbears can make defeating a large Bulbear especially difficult, as they will not only eat any Pikmin that fall to the ground, but may go directly for the captain and the rest of the Pikmin swarm. In order to cope with this threat, a well-timed Ultra-bitter spray can be used to petrify the entire group of Bulbears, including the parent. With a bit of luck, a barrage of Purple Pikmin can also stun all the creatures within a small radius, even if they are not hit directly, leaving them vulnerable to attack.
Despite their aggressive behavior, Dwarf Bulbears are actually notably weaker than in Pikmin 1, and a single Pikmin thrown onto their back kills them instantly.

How to Kill
Pikmin
If you have a lot of Pikmin, swarm it and it should die before eating any Pikmin. If not, throw them onto it, then call them back immediately. This creature can cause the Crushing Glitch when defeated.
Captains
Run around it and swat it until it's dead, avoiding its attack.
