Changes: Crup

Revision as of 10:48, 10 February 2016

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.

Crup owners are required by law to remove the forked tail of the animal when it is six to eight weeks old, using a painless Severing Charm, in case they are noticed by Muggles. A licence from the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures must also be obtained, and the owner must pass a test to show that they are able to control the animal in Muggle-inhabited areas.

Rubeus Hagrid's fifth year Care of Magical Creatures class studied this creature in 1996.^[1] They were amongst those creatures that most often came up on Ordinary Wizarding Level examination and thus part of the Ministry of Magic approved curriculum for Care of Magical Creatures students at that level.^[2]

The popular singer Celestina Warbeck is a known breeder of crups.^[3]

Behind the scenes

According to W.O.M.B.A.T., it may be possible for Crups to interbreed with dogs.
