*I know almost nothing about schutzhund.*

I'd assume any breed or mix could participate in schutzhund. It's common with certain breeds but if a dog had the right personality for it I don't see why not. I've seen video of a dane doing schutzhund and even herding. So it's not impossible, just unlikely.

My dogs and I do agility because my dogs enjoy it. I would not participate in a sport that was not enjoyed by my dogs. My youngest dog does not enjoy agility so much so we are pursuing rally. She does not have the temperment for agility and that is ok with me. your Beaceron may not be a common breed to Schutzhund however they are a breed with prey drive. Goldendoodles drive is to love all people which would not go well in the French ring.

That particular dog may love it, you really can't judge by breed. I have no doubt my lab/pointer would have loved schutzhund. But his personality isn't very lab like, I sometimes call him an anti lab. I do agree however that you probably don't want a poodle mix if you want to get into schutzhund, there are better suited breeds. But that's not to say that one can not do it.
