First lesson: Crups
Chapter 2
A Crup is a wizard-bred dog that strongly resembles a Jack Russell Terrier, except that a Crup has a forked tail. They are clearly wizard-bred dogs since they are extremely loyal to wizards, and ferocious toward Muggles. They will eat almost anything. It is (in my opinion) one of the best magical creatures in the world.
Requiements to have one:
Owners of a Crup are binded by law to remove the Crups forked tail when it is six to eight weeks old (using a painless severing charm), so that their forked tail is not noticed by muggles. You also have to posess a licence from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, and the owner must pass a test to show that they are able to control the animal in Muggle-inhabited areas.
